Nightmare Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 A 24yo from the team 15th place in the 6th tier, is an… interesting choice. Not the type of signing you’d imagine we need to clear three players from the books to sign - so hopefully more to come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediocre Pundit Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Interesting indeed. Can’t imagine he’ll be ready to walk into the team - low cost punt, loan him out for 6months in League 1 and see if he can cut it next season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 A player that I’ve literally never heard of, but the signing article says he’s been on trial for a while so presumably Doolan has seen something in him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reid Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 1 hour ago, JagsCG said: At least that’s a couple of loan positions cleared up now, it’s maybe not particularly ideal but if we need to use them then so be it. Another interesting proposition is who we might send out on loan? I reckon the manager will want James Lyon to go and get game time at either L1/L2 level, possibly Zander also although I’d be inclined to keep him until we get another winger in. I think Lyon on-loan to Clyde is a strong possibility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 McBeth has been training for a couple of weeks so the management team have had a good chance to see what he can do. He is a DM apparently. He's got a great opportunity but a total unknown prospect to those outwith the club. Here's hoping he's a hidden gem, much like his manager was. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Chris Erskine was in his twenties and playing for Kilbirnie when we signed him. You never know, we might get lucky again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Will we have to refer to him as "the Scottish player"? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never know, we might get lucky again. Plus Doolan from Auchinleck and Craigen from Edinburgh University a few years later. We historically have a very good record of bringing players in from far lower down the pyramid who go on to become established full time professionals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacky1990 Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Interesting signing for sure. Looking at the Glenafton team, theres a few with Thistle connections like Paul Paton and Gary Fraser being managed by Mark Roberts. Wonder it they have had anything to do with suggesting we get him on trial? On a side note, fairly sure he is the younger brother of a guy i went to school with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagsCG Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 A low cost low risk signing that could (and hopefully will) prove to be a hidden gem, like Doolan, Erskine etc. Intriguing signing, at least - and in a position where we did need to strengthen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thistle_do_nicely Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 (edited) Yeah, outside Thistle Darian Mackinnon came from a pretty low level and ended up having a good full time career. Was done by the time he rocked up to us right enough. Also initially thought he'd signed from an Irish club (theres one with a similar name, im sure of it... edit: came to me there, Glenavon) Edited January 2 by Thistle_do_nicely 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptfc. 22 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 The transfer Scotland guy on twitter saying we're interested in Andy haliday. That account generally just makes up shite but I'd probably take him if it's true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about to say we don't need past it geriatrics thinking he was closer to 40, shocked to find out he is only 32 oofftt! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimBob Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Is Debbie Harry a Thistle fan? https://www.facebook.com/100043968886979/posts/922676922541262/?mibextid=rS40aB7S9Ucbxw6v 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediocre Pundit Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I think Andy Halliday would be pretty much perfect for what we need and are realistically able to get in this window - a game-smart dirty b*****d that has people to run off him. Would be pleased with him on either a 6 or 18m deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagsCG Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Said a few weeks ago, would take Halliday (if he’s not completely done) as he fits into what we’re missing in the side. If there’s Premiership clubs after him though, it’s probably unlikely he comes here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
