I think we'll hear something this week anyway even if it is just a few young guys. I think the club know people would be disappointed if the pen got whipped out for us to just announce Cole Gibson so I've been expecting him and a few other young players to come as part of a bigger announcement about the development team being back. Pyott maybe get a game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She who dares gins Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 How many do we actually have on board for Saturday if we take Salim out as he’s still injured?I think we’ve all been plenty patient, but I really would expect to have seen a few more by now… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need 3 or 4 signed at least before Sat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr November Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 All of our other coaches are players so may as well just start Prunty too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLDiamond Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Expecting about 3-4 pens tomorrow unless we have a late display this evening. I figured Rhys would have seen enough at the weekend to press on with 2-3 signings at least. We basically don’t have enough of a team so there no choice but to get at least a couple signed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One bit of news although not announced by the club, we have a new physio \ sports scientist, a position that was advertised a few weeks ago, JD Peacock has left Albion Rover s to take up a full time position at Airdrie , source Albion Rover s website...I although this League Cup is not one of our priorities, it is only fair to the sponsors and the full respect should be given to our opponents for us to field a full squad. So yes I do expect maybe 3 signings this week, Centre back Leon Jones, Left back Euan Devenney and Dylan Ruiz Diaz. All 3 I would expect to back ups IF signed...... ( cough, cough, )Any word of a qualified coach yet 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( cough, cough, )Any word of a qualified coach yet[emoji15][emoji15][emoji15]Trying not to be negative but the club should really be on top of these announcements, especially a new physio.Also if players like Cole Gibson have signed a contract for us in a development team, I think it would be really good to announce these things with a photo, especially as it would be a proud moment for them, and their families too, especially landing a first professional contract in football.They are good at announcing the lottery numbers and player sponsorships, I think they need to be better at informing the fans via social media of changes within the backroom staff and of recruitment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondman Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 If Cole Gibson was the number 4 on Sunday, I liked what I saw. Young boy though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond Oracle Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I see that’s Kieran MacDonald signed for Edinburgh. I would have thought that was a player that would have been a decent signing for us in a position we currently don’t have anyone for! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will soon see if he is any good, personally I think he would have been a very good signing . We must be waiting to sign better or just as good.

She who dares gins Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 My lasting memory of Kieran is him basically not bothering his arse for a season before leaving for Raith and then playing like a man possessed. So quite happy not to have him back. Agree on terrible communication point. I moan about it every season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondman Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I concur Emma. He had a few good performances and then tailed off. From what I recall, he was rather disrespectful after signing at Stark's Park too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I recall, he was rather disrespectful after signing at Stark's Park too. Yeah when he joined Raith I’m sure he gave an interview where he said he wanted to leave Airdrie the previous summer, despite choosing to sign a new two year deal. I would have happily taken him back, mainly because we don’t have a left back and he was ok in his previous spell but I can’t say I’m too bothered we haven’t signed him. His strengths at Raith seemed to be getting forward and having a good final ball, something I thought he struggled with at Airdrie, but no doubt playing in a better team and under a better manager than most of the ragtag bunch he was with at Airdrie helped too. I don’t think he’s stood out too much for most of his other teams though. He’ll get a load of abuse when we play Edinburgh this season and then go onto set up a couple of goals for them. It’s certainly not worth getting upset about not signing him anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
