So what's the catch with Higgins?  Is he over the hill?  Not sure why queens freed him but on paper a good signing.  Not sure where it leaves Meggatt, though personally I wouldn't be too fussed if he moved on.

Can't believe we've signed someone already but fantastic news, if we can get Megatt tied up we could have a rock CB pairing. Would have thought the other news is regarding someone signing a new contract instead of another signing.

Never mind, just noticed the second bit of news has already been announced.

Been looking at the Dunfermline website daily recently and a lot of players have been committing to new deals up there. Moffatt and Geggan seem to be making Dunfermline wait.... hopefully they'll sign for us though in the next few days. Couple of Friyay signings?!?!

Sad to see Wardrope go, never put a foot wrong in the sparse first team games he had
Reminds me of Scally and Chaplain, a youth player capable but kept out the side by more experienced players, hopefully he'll have a similar career to them

Two.


Fordyce has left though, along with Higgins that'd be a solid cb pairing.

Can't see it either but his season was ended by injury before getting much of a chance in the Championship so a top League One side is probably the best he could hope for in Scotland. Some English non-league side probably his best bet.

Long term injury you say?  Keep that quiet or McCall will sign him.

Just done a quick bit of maths so bear with me. McCall said in his interview with AU media that he wanted a squad of 18 and this to be supported by 7 or 8 youngsters from the academy. So far we have 8 players signed up for next season (Fleming, Hart, Higgins, Boyle, Gilmour, McGuffie, Harkins, Forrest). We've also offered deals to Docherty, Meggat, Rose, Adams, Crawford, Moore), this is not including Cairney who has invited to pre-season so presuming they all sign that would take our squad number to 14 which suggests there would only be 4 more new signings unless we can move a couple of our under-contract players on.
