Reid signed him I'm sure  was one of those players that I originally hated and grew to like.

Yeah he became a bit of a cult figure IIRC. Scored a really good goal against Partick Thistle.

ETA: I am pretty sure that was his only goal for us as well.

Archibald only played one game for us. Same with Rough (who was our goalie coach), although he played a decent number of reserve games that season. 

It was at Firhill, he looked completely disinterested and couldn't even be bothered running, he was subbed in the 2nd half and just walked straight down the tunnel never to be seen again (thankfully).

Having said that, the version of him who was Barcelona's top scorer in La Liga might have done us a turn !!

Think we lost 4-1 that day. Was never keen on him, even when he played for Scotland.

Was that the game where Martyn Campbell broke Jackie McNamaras leg? 

(Happend after I had said 'I hope someone breaks his legs' which was very nasty of me at the time. My friend was gutting himself at that all night at it.)

Yes it was.

I remember some old guy gave me dogs abuse because he asked me if I had a lighter and I said I didn't smoke.

Two fullbacks, two strikers and two midfielders will cover what is needed, barely, but they all have to be better than when they replaced (Akinyemi aside) and they all need to stay fit. You'd hope for a bit more depth. And this contradicts Bullen's stated preference for signing generalists, which mostly failed last season.

Im imagining the seethe now when we start the league cup and our fullback options are McAlister and Hewitt on the right and Reading and Ecrepont on the left!!

Could be worse. I hope Bullen doesn't put the wrong Ecrepont in nets.

Bit sceptical about 2 new fullbacks given Reading is signed and McAllister has been offered a new contract.

Neither McAllister or Reading are good enough to be starters. It's critical we have a new LB and RB come the start of the season
