I wonder if Howie will be sent out on loan? Manager doesn't appear to rate him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love the same back line for a run of games: Taggart, Stanger, Neil, Church. You know we love the Ex-Sons. Can throw Vinnie in to the mix too when fully fit. Yep. When we go back three, Vinnie or Big Andy can join in and we can still keep Taggs wide right in the wingback role. I'm quite liking this signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Howie will be sent out on loan? Manager doesn't appear to rate him. I was wondering that too. I like Howie and think he has been pretty unfortunate at Alloa. Obviously wasn't Ferguson's signing and was used at DM by him, then covered at full-back at times when Rice came in, then injury in the summer set him back this season. Hasn't really had a run at CB and wonder has he suffered from being there the day of the Meadowbank collapse. Perhaps he still has a role to play. CB would have been very low on my list of priorities have to say and don't think Neil is really an upgrade on what we have. But in fairness Rice has already signed a very good CB in Stanger and hopefully this is equally successful, if it does indeed go through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevchenko Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 If Neill does come in, absolutely no excuse not to see Taggs charging up and down that right flank for the rest of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had sort of forgotten Stanger was at you guys. He looked very comfortable on the ball when he played centre-half for us (and not at all comfortable at right-back!) Him and Morgyn should work together I'd think. Should add as well, I don't think I've seen a defender as good in the air as Morgyn at DFC. There were games where I'm absolutely sure he didn't lose a single header. He's ridiculously aggressive at attacking high balls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he's playing in a bounce game tonight for alloa though if Hartley gets the gig he may look to keep him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rory Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Hartley back to Cove and the defender they had on loan from Killie has been recalled so not sure we'll get Neil now, unless Hartley doesn't rate him. Any word on Offord? Hoping no news is good news in his case 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it still happens but can understand if it doesn’t now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any word on Offord? Hoping no news is good news in his case Yeah that looks unlikely now. These things happen. St Mirren have an option to recall Offord right about now I'm sure. I think we need to use him more if I'm honest. He's probably better off at us than sitting on St Mirrens bench. St Mirren not exactly struggling right now so I can't see a huge clamour from his parent club to get him back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KierenAAFC Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Yeah, Kieran’s deal is going to run to the end of the season. So no news, is good news. It’s just business as usual as we go into the weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee wasp Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I think our priority should be a defensive centre midfielder, Robbo looks very laboured to me these days, he's maybe playing through injury though, There was talk at start of season about Liam Brown from Queen's Park and I see hes not had much action this season, He started a loan at stennie but didn't last long, always thought he looked a decent player 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waspie Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 If you believe the rumours Brown already turned us down before ultimately ending up at Stenny. That loan ended very quickly with a statement from Stenny that they didn't expect him to play for them again due to an ongoing medical issue. He is a good player and hopefully he is on the mend but pretty sure he won't be coming to Alloa. Neil deal probably unlikely too given he had been a regular under Hartley before being frozen out under Mcintyre. I think we already have CB options just as good if not better anyway. Agree that another CM option would be good and also that we need to be giving Offord more games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played for both Queen's Park and Stenhousemuir this season so he can't play for anyone else at League level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liammcintosh01 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I only see us bringing in another centre defender if David Devine goes back to Motherwell. Also what happened to the boy seff Khayyam we signed in the summer, is he still at be the club? Definitely think we need another centre midfielder too, I see Stevie hetherington is barely playing at Falkirk, I would take him back in a heartbeat and feel we are missing someone like him in our midfield. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
