Airdrieonians Transfer thread

Turns out Grant Drummond is still at the club with the club's Facebook page stating it was his birthday today. Got no idea how fit he is though. If he can play then he is surely a better option than Fitzpatrick at centre - half?

Also Jack Kirwan played for the U20s last week so could make his comeback into the first team soon. Haven't seen him play yet but another option upfront anyway.

Signed Bryan Gilfillan from Peterhead until the end of the season. Apparently can play CB or CM!

He's primarily a midfielder though.

Hope he's just a back up defender. We really need a solid CB.

Interested to hear Peterhead fans' thoughts on him.

Pleased with the signing. Utility player who could be really valuable as we badly need some cover in defence and midfield and some strength in depth. Look how we crumbled last week when we had to make changes to the team. Signing Gilfillan will help to solve that though we still need to sign another centre - half IMO.


Streetwise player and adds a bit of steel too which, apart from Docherty, we've been missing.

Pleased with that signing. Can play centre - half if required but primarily a midfielder which TBH I think we needed cover for as if Docherty or Fraser were to get injured we'd be screwed. Covers a few wholes that were needing to be filled though we do still need another centre - half.

Gilly is a good lad to have, has played all over the park for us but can be a bit suspect at the back. Apparently travel was the main reason for him moving on. Actually was my sponsored player this season but would wish him well, apart from his return to Balmoor.

A lot of movement in and out the club recently.

Wilson, Hammill, Parker, Proctor, Haggerty and Drummond out: Gilfillan, Lindsay and now Jordan Morton in.

Interesting that a natural winger has been brought in as for the whole season we've been playing with centre - mids out wide. Apparently a luxury player with a great left foot. We're missing a player with some flair and creativity so he will hopefully be able to plug that gap.

Would like to see Bob do well there. Never really got a chance at Motherwell, behind guys like Higdon, McFadden, Sutton, Ojamaa, McDonald etc.

Definitely at the stage in his career where he needs to move on and get first team football. Coming back from an injury though.
