Red 'N Yellow Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 That's our business done apparently. Our offers for 2 players were knocked back (presumably Erwin and that Billy Knott guy). We've not lost anyone major, McDaid, Ziggy, Syme, Wilson and Penrice were not really in our 1st team. Bit dull though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cilitbang Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I remember all the Morton fans ranting n raving about McDaid. Then being massively underwhelmed by him. Maybe Erwin is his replacement? I'm still holding out for Miles Storey on loan though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Would have been nice to get one more in, guess it just means we go straight to the untested weans if we get a spate of injuries / suspensions rather than the never were’s like McDaid or Wilson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) I don't think we need to do any business to be honest, but another winger/striker would've been nice. Does anyone know what's actually wrong with Gary Fraser and when he's likely to come back? Edited January 31, 2017 by Slacker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerberus Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 He put in that cross for Elliott and got booed at Ibrox by the **** for having a Cafflicky sounding name. Still a better signing than Stevenson IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 McDaid signed for Ayr, that's a good 2 or 3 levels above where I thought he'd end up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMMjag Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I can now hate him purely for having a face like an absolute c**t. Not that I didn't already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know what's actually wrong with Gary Fraser and when he's likely to come back? He did the HT draw at the Formartine game but didn't do an interview, the PA guy said hopefully back in a couple of months or something similarly vague. Guessing that given he's effectively been out for 10 months -I'm aware he played 1 dev squad game- and his injury from what I heard (third hand admittedly) is a re-occurring one with his kneecap I think we might have seen the last of him at Firhill, though I suppose he might get a similar deal to Welsh at the start of last season to prove his fitness.

SetPieceSpecialist Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Crawley man Jason Banton joins on loan for the rest of the season. Described by Crawley as a midfielder but described on Wikipedia as a winger/forward so seems versatile which is good. Only comment I've seen so far from Crawley fans was a person asking why they let him go as he's one of their better player which is positive. Hasn't got a great goal scoring record, though, but again I don't know what position he's been playing predominantly. Saw him described as unplayable when he's on form which would help in thought matches. Time will tell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_frank Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 We've signed another striker who doesn't score any goals 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cilitbang Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Banton appears to be more of a winger than striker going by wiki 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SetPieceSpecialist Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 His Crawley deal is up at the end of the season. We have signed players off the back of loans before so who knows. If he does well but not too well that someone bigger comes in for him them I could see us signing him in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Jacobsen Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I've heard of him, which is a plus. More of a winger than a striker. Decent enough anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Top Bants Banton He plays on the left but likes to cut inside on to his favoured right foot. If he can teach Dave Amoo this sorcery we might create enough chances to keep the Azeez h8ers at bay... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archie guevara Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Don't honestly know what to expect. My initial reaction was disappointment that we are signing a guy who can't get into an English League 2 team, but on reflection, having watched a bit of League 2 live and on the telly, most games just cut out the attacking midfield and boot the ball back and forth. Maybe this is a chance for him to fit into our style of play. We'll see. The YouTube clip above doesn't suggest he's a Lionel Ainsworth type winger though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
