He'll be playing with the under23s. Full time training will do him the world of good. From The Time Capsule to full time football - Superb move for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hope it hasn't come too early for Connor and that he doesn't go down there and get lost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed though, fantastic opportunity at a huge club, hope it goes well for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Dick hasn’t given him a chance but he was punted out on loan to the juniors last season and scored loads. I hope he does well 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got a lot of stick at Cliftonhill, which always shocked me as his goal scoring record was excellent. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teekasule Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 (edited) from the Rovers site " Albion Rovers FC announce that Brian Kerr and Stuart Malcolm have left Cliftonhill after the club's relegation to League 2.

I've held my wheesht until now but, for me, the online video of Kerr and Malcolm in the dressing room etc was the last straw. Neither scary nor inspiring, they resembled the famous Chewin' the Fat pair. God knows where we go from here, with equal uncertainty in the boardroom. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

an86 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Billy Stark just stepped down from EK. Would be a great appointment if Rovers are looking to go with younger players. However, he’s been tipped to take over the Scotland U19s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
