Fudge Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Everyone seems to be making decent signings though, going to be an incredibly tight league, can't see any team similar to Stirling taking up the roll of cannon fodder. I generally agree with you. We recognise that the players we've signed largely range from average to a bit above average for the league. However, given the board have been brutally honest about our wage bill being cut (approx 20% I think) then it's encouraging for us that we appear to be putting together a better squad with less money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Are Stenny ever not 'cutting' their budget? Seems to always be peddled out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fudge Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 We've posted a profit for the last few years and the budget has remained roughly the same over that time. The figures released at the AGM later this year will show a relatively speaking, sizeable loss which is why we're already taking action 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrunitedfw Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 On what basis do you make that assertion ? You signed Paul Wills. Awful player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Andy Barrowman running along Stirling Road there. Not convinced he's the man to partner the Auld Heid next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB_Bino Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Andy Barrowman running along Stirling Road there. Clocked him as well, but wasn't sure if he lived locally or there was more to it than that. Going by posts on here, he was horrendous for both Morton & Dunfermline last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Allan Smith from Dungvermin. Always struck me as a fox in the box type player should be a decent acquisition - young and hungry guy looking to prove a point. Will learn all the tricks of the trade off the Auld Heid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennys Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Alan smith from dunfermline signed anyone know anything about him ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 He was the catalyst in the comeback that made me as low as I have ever felt at a football match. Stenhousemuir 4-5 Dunfermline. Smith amongst the scorers late on. Still seek to the pit of my stomach wi that game! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francesc Fabregas Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 He was the catalyst in the comeback that made me as low as I have ever felt at a football match. Stenhousemuir 4-5 Dunfermline. Smith amongst the scorers late on. Still seek to the pit of my stomach wi that game! Christ, that was a rotten afternoon. Still makes me feel nauseous. Don't know a lot about him but seven goals in 21 appearances last term is decent. Another striker and I reckon we'll be sorted up top. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Just posted about him on the Pars thread - fox in the box is his true position. Naturally we played him as a sort of winger/fox not in the box. He played rugby until not long ago too - played in a u19s final at Murrayfield and at Hampden for us in u20s cup final. I always think you can see the rugby influence when he's charging about in the box - tough wee character. Strikes the ball crisply - should bag you a few goals if he stays fit and healthy and used in a role that suits him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafcburty Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 All the best to Allan. Scored a good amount of goals for us, some vital ones too including the one mentioned above vs yourselves in the 4-5 game. I think he will link up well with McMenamin. A good squad you guys have put together so far, 4 more tough games await this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrifying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Are Pars Fans! Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Quite liked Smith always gave his all but was a bit of a headless chicken. Will chase everything and Mcmenamin may have a big influence on him. Good player and a good move for both player and club IMO. Remember the day when we beat cowden 1-0 after admin and he ran his self so much into the ground he had to be carried of the pitch at the end, was always a bit of a fan favourite after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Had high hopes for Smith. Disappointed it didn't work out for him at EEP and hope he does well at Stenny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
