ETA: really just the same as Munro, but a bigger version imagine it would be a job to break in to your back line as it looks pretty decent 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah only Qots and Dundee United have conceded more anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesc Fabregas Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share Posted January 10, 2020 (edited) I'm looking forward to seeing how Bob Wilson gets on. He must have something about him if Dick Campbell brought him to Arbroath in the summer (albeit he was never going to get ahead of Tam O'Brien or Ricky Little). We've needed cover at centre-back with David Marsh injured and Jordan Armstrong not really up to it, so on paper it's a good move. I do worry about signing someone who played in one of the worst teams in the history of the SPFL, right enough. We still badly need a left-back, unless, of course, we're planning on operating in a 3-5-2 with Alan Cook at wing-back (and Armstrong still in the starting XI). Nevertheless: I'm pumped for tomorrow!

beaver1 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Lordy - a centre half from last season's Berwick Rangers team. Prepared to give the guy a chance, obviously, but this gives me the fear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armand 2 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Can Wilson play for Stenny this season? Played the first league game of the season for Arbroath against Queen of the South before going out on loan. @Skyline Drifter will be the man to know... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesc Fabregas Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share Posted January 10, 2020 It would be quite hilarious if we've brought him in and he's unable to play. I'm sure that won't be the case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DutchBorderer Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Robert Wilson was, out of all the deadwood at Berwick last season, the closest to being decent enough to be in this League. Yes, he too was suspect at best sometimes, but our team (and Johnny Harvey) was godawful and did him no favours. Thus, I've no doubt he will be of use to you guys; if anything, he has plenty of experience with the predicament you are in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His appearances for Musselbrough are irrelevant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lichtielegend Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Bob Wilson and Andy Munro at centre-half? You won't be conceding many headers, that's for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirscottyoung Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Greg Spence what's going on!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesc Fabregas Posted January 10, 2020 Author Share Posted January 10, 2020 Greig Spence is an intriguing prospect. He hasn't scored a league goal in almost two years (!) but he's obviously got something about him and I hope he'll add a different dimension to our stuttering attack. He's still living off the reputation he forged at Alloa Athletic and Raith Rovers but I hope this move reinvigorates his career. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he's a massive success and can help move the team away from the bottom of the table but I'm feeling quite cautious about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtielegend Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Bob Wilson will score more goals in the remainder of the season than Greig Spence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waspie Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Spencie has always been a confidence player. If he can get a goal or two I'm sure more will follow. Potentially excellent signing for League 2. Good luck to him! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
