Wouldn’t be adverse to giving him a season or an extended trial period. Not sure who he is tho. James Cowan, same boy that played in the other friendly games. Seems to be getting mixed reviews. 14 hours ago, Spanish Armada said: David Cox aka Pigeon Chest Ah I see. Yeah I would tend to agree with you on that. Got a lot of love from Airdrie fans (PotY was he not?) for being a grafter but wasn't much more to him. No real quality whatsoever. Seemed to be one of those guys that became non-feasibly popular due to social media. He probably does a turn at bottom-half League 2 level though. Does some outstanding work on the mental health side of things so I have to give him his due there. 13 hours ago, Mybitchunderprotest said: Side issue, did you see the fucking size of Jordyn Sheerin (14) when he came on. He's clearly been on holiday somewhere on an all inclusive deal and spent the entire 2 weeks at the buffet. I'm 51 and in better shape than him (apart from the fucked ankles and knees). How the f**k any club allows a player to get in that shape and still pay him is beyond me. He's always been a big laddie so I dread to think what sort of shape he's in now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems a bit bad, considering people are saying the community trust was set up to compete with the supporters trust. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All very unusual goings on, The Supporters Trust now seems to be an afterthought, all the big hitters baling out to the Diamonds in the Community Sunshine Club. .... The Supporters club had a pivotal role at the end of the TW reign and the ousting of JB. What incentive is there now for members to renew membership and new members to join.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 Whatever happened to Andrew Barrowman? When he came in it seemed that all he needed was a bit of fitness and he'd be pushing in to the first team, but barely heard anything since. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waysider Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I think people are getting somewhat carried away based on results against two of Scotland’s poorest teams. The football club must be given credit for having a plan, keeping in touch with the fan base for a change, and making a lot of signings. I have two particular worries. Firstly, a significant number of the new signings fall into the category of young promising players who have not yet fulfilled their promise. Some of these players may fulfil their promise but others may not. Having several of these players in your team at the one time seems to me to be taking a bit of a chance. The other worry I have is that we are very short of goalscorers. I am absolutely sure that the manager is aware of this. I accept that it is very difficult for our small team to attract proven goalscorers. All in all, given that this is a more difficult league than last year I am not as confident as others. As our lifelong fan I hope that I am wrong. Barrowman is on the list of signed players on the O/S. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came with a good reputation but hasn’t featured in any of our preseason squads. I assume he is injured as he appears to be the only natural right back in the squad, so you’d think he’d at least feature on the bench. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 You're right, I had completely forgotten about him! Didn't even click when Gallagher started at right wing back on Saturday. Another couple in last night, we really really need a striker. Fingers crossed for something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strongly suspect he is the missing Number 2 in squad numbers & therefore prefered right back 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airdrie76 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Anyone have a guess as to how many we’ll take through tomorrow? Hopefully a decent turn out. Tough one for a first competitive game with so many new players but it willgive a good indication of our level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
