airdrieman Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Dean Cairns heading to East Kilbride? A decent player with potential but unfortunately never got much game time at all once Ian Murray came in last season. Latterly he'd been playing in the centre of midfield for us but he started off at centre - half and I think he's better there. Tough tackler, a lot of dig and plays with his heart on his sleeve so he should be popular with the fans. Nice guy too. I thought he'd maybe get a League 2 club but EK are on an upward trajectory so it's a good move for him. With regular game time, he should be able to do well for EK. A lot of experienced players he can learn from too. Best of luck to him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he'll turn out to be a great signing for EK. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Judge Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 Sad to see Jama moving on but he was being used mostly as an impact sub and will hopefully find more game time elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was in the reserves and/or youth team but he's well spoken of by Craig Young and a few others. Hopefully, one for the future. I quite liked Brownlie when he was at Airdrie btw. Wasn't the biggest or the best defender but he done us a job when we were badly struggling both on and off the park. He seemed to do an okay job at Stranraer too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seemed to do an okay job at Stranraer too.I used Jonny more as a centre back, but believe Airdrie want to develop him as a left back. He is a dedicated young player who is a raw talent. He will be a player for the future if he can learn and improve. He has only really played at SYFA level so this is a big step up and an opportunity I know he is looking forward to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk St Moritz Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 See EK has just signed a guy from Airdrie, another defender by the looks of it. Anyone know much about him? Fielding a team full of defenders by the looks of it next season..! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean Cairns i believe, an old fashioned crowd favourite for no real reason actually, skippered the under 19 s to the league title about 3 seasons back, Started the following season at centre half in a poor under funded Airdrie side, struggled badly at centre half and was then switched to defensive midfield, which to be fair he was effective to an extent, prone to a high boot tackle and silly fouls late in games. Probably found his level though.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tory Boy Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I'd disagree with Passionate. I really liked him in the middle of the park. Felt Airdrie's best performances came when he was on the park as a holding midfielder. I felt he gave us energy in the middle. Where I would agree though is he is prone to rash challenges. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replays Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Rumours about Craig Howie training with Clyde. I noticed he was the first player to make 100 appearances at LL level for you. How is he? Capable of a step up to League One? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
