PedroMoutinho Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Really pleased to get the two young lads in. They will offer vital depth over the rest of the season. Jordan Allan is an interesting one. A good signing for this level but not sure I’d have given him a 2 and a half year deal. I’d be surprised if he is the standard required for where we would hope to be in May 2025 but hope I’m wrong.

Popular Post Grangemouth Bairn Posted January 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 26, 2023 Everyone will have their own views on the ins and outs of this window however what cannot be disputed is that McGlynn has made us a far better team with a far better squad than we had 12 months ago. I am one very content Bairn. 31 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See I'm half in your boat but he's still only 24 so getting back to full time training and with a coach like McGlynn there's nothing to say he won't develop into a better player for it. Even if he doesn't I highly doubt he'll be on a massive wage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Liked the look of Allen in the 3 each draw at Clyde. His two goals that day were real strikers goals. One touch and hit both tremendous finishes. He gave Henderson a torrid time of it despite his lack of inches. Double figures in that Clyde team isn't a bad effort at all. Looks like we're trying to sign anyone that's scored a double against the pars this season.

Bigbrbairn Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Sure it would be great to have more signings but looking at the current squad we are well covered in most areas for the first time in many years 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I don't think we are done yet, be ideal if the transfer movement meant more in but I think more likely outgoing. Kennedy being the obvious one. As for the starfish reference by my reckoning that's the five signings, Kinnear, Rowe, Allan, Wright and Meekison. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Both strikers have scored a double against the fifers this season, that's not a bad signing policy at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 See if we're talking next year about launching Jordan Allen out on loan cos he's not good enough for thr Chanpionship, then we will be collectively fucking delighted and he will go with my best wishes having done his job. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there was any deeper meaning other than today was going to be the day folk had been begging for signing announcements.

FFC 1876 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Morrison Rowe Donaldson Mackie Mccann McGinn Henderson Morrison Meekison Kennedy Allan I'm hoping we continue with Henderson in the middle of the park as he's looked much better in there and it'll allow Meekison and McGinn to go affect the game. Allan up top on his own will be an interesting one but hopefully with the amount of chances we create he'll be on the end of a fair few of them. Still got Lawal to come back to challenge Meekison/Nesbitt for the number 10 role. Saturday's starting line up now becomes very interesting, I reckon Allan upfront will be the only change from last weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senor Bairn Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 If you had even told me 3 months ago I'd be arguing for Nesbitt not to be dropped I'd have punched you in the face. But I genuinely don't think you can drop him in the form he's in. f**k knows what type of formation we're going to line up with now but we look to have some decent depth all over. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFC 1876 Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Squad's up to a nice healthy 24 now with plenty of competition for places, wouldn't be surprised to see Watson & Malcolm leave before next week. If we're being greedy I wouldn't mind another winger in, we do still have one loan left to use. Goalkeeper Brian Kinnear - On loan from West Ham PJ Morrison Defenders Ryan Williamson Brad Mckay Leon McCann Paul Watson Liam Henderson Coll Donaldson Sean Mackie Blaine Rowe - On loan from Coventry Midfielders Archie Meekison - On loan from Dundee United Stephen Mcginn Callumn Morrison Aidan Nesbitt Craig Mcguffie Finn Yeats Pearse Carroll (A) Kai Kennedy - On loan from Rangers Ola Lawal Strikers Jordan Allan Matthew Wright - On loan from Ross County Rumarn Burrell Gary Oliver Finlay Malcolm Edited January 26, 2023 by FFC 1876 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalWolf Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 I can't see him dropping nesbit. I have wondered if burrell potentially could play as a winger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulioBairn Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Great business today and a brilliant window. Well done to all. Im confident we’ll get more points in the 2nd half of the season than we did in the first half. Let’s hope those c***s start dropping a few. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
