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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The starfish meme words are the key part - not the tentacles 🤨

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.

Considering the shite we shipped out and the players we have brought in i am also one happy baldy bairn.

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.

I’m sorry to report that that team is winning 0-7 on Saturday.

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.

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.
