RobRoyGuy Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 Actually not sure! Just know he has took up a coaching role and going by his twitter seems excited by that new role. Carter has got the captaincy so that seems to suggest Moffat won't be playing as many games this season. Only ever heard good things about Gordon so hopefully he can bring something different to the sidelines , a different character to Thompson that's for sure.

BennytheLegend Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Gordon Moffat has resigned for the club and takes up his new post of Player/Coach with immediate effect. Great addition to the coaching staff and the club don't lose out on his playing ability on the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrvineVicsMan Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Young boy Aitken looks like he'll be one to watch for the goal scorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobRoyGuy Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 So who we hopping is goin to b our goal scorer then? Last few seasons weve had gormley, diack then sawyers. Who now?Past seasons we have had some top strikers at the club with a proven record. Now we are having to look to younger guys with less of a track record to shine. Heard some fantastic stuff about lad Aitken , also O'Hallaron, Duff, and Morton i would expect them to be amongst the goals next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lithgy BH Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Good to see Maxi pulling a squad together after last season. Although if my calculations are right, having a 24 man squad is to many (counting the re-signed and new signed players together from the first post), as the young lads will want to play everyweek and with so many not stripped each week, it wouldn't be long until they wanted to move on??

RobRoyGuy Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 If memory serves me right at the start of last season the manager had a squad signed of 23 or 24 .After 2 or 3 weeks players started leaving for a variety of seasons. After a month or so the squad was whittled down by 5 or 6, see if something similar happens this coming season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did well during his spell at Kilbirnie,nice guy,on his day he can be a handful and wins a pen or two. Kilbirnie us twice now Glencairn and renfrew far as i know. He was a good wee winger first time around with us and played with us last time we played in this league is 2008. That's 6 years ago now so can't imagine he is the same player now as he was then.A bit of his pace might have gone , doesn't mean he can't do well for us though. U sure Fraser Team has signed mate ??? He has signed for sure . so you can stop sniffing about mate ha . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clash city rocker Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Kirkintilloch Rob Roy, Rutherglen Glencairn and Renfrew. Is that all. He seemed to be with a different club every season. Could have swore a seen him at Glenafton or somebody as well. Ladeside had big Moore yet nobody to suppy him with crosses,wee Chang is good at that.
