I agree we need to strengthen probably 2 players preferably with a bit of experience guide us through the second half of the season, This season we have currently or have used 4 loan players, is there not a limit for loan players for a season..... Not sure if there's a limit on loan players but it would make sense. I was hopeful that the appointment of Murray's old chum Jack Ross at Hibs might see us sneak a few of their up and coming youngsters. Wishful thinking I guess! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbbbb Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 On 11/12/2019 at 22:28, ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds said: It's normal that there's no one on the bench you could expect to come in and do as good a job or better. If there was they'd be part of our best starting XI. In terms of players coming in as cover I don't really have any problems with guys like Eckersley, Kerr, Hawkshaw, Wedderburn, Roy and Thomson (when he recovers) as backups to the first team. I think we maybe could have better depth in midfield and I'd love us to bring in someone new to play there but I think we have a relatively strong bench, even if guys like Wedderburn, Hawkshaw and Roy have been a bit underwhelming. I think you can add Gallacher to that list also...so maybe not such a threadbare squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric the half a b Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Need good centre mid for sure if we do have ambition to win league would make the playoffs with current squad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulloch Gorum Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 He's not been worthy of a start, but he's not even the worst Airdrie player in the last decade. Not even close. Not good enough to be a regular player for a team that wants to go up, and I'd be happy to see him go and free up a place for someone else, but let's not get hysterical. Letting a couple of players go, plus money from the Hearts game, ought to see us able to strengthen the squad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Hawkshaw in for Roberts (I assume due to the knock Roberts took last week). We may well miss Roberts today but good chance for Hawkshaw to step up and play like he did against Arbroath at the end of last season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Feel like Kieran Millar doesn't get the recognition he deserves because he doesn't play in a fashionable role. Excellent again today. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond8 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 He was my pick for motm today. Starting to come out of his shell in the past few weeks with a few decent efforts on goal Feel like Kieran Millar doesn't get the recognition he deserves because he doesn't play in a fashionable role.

airdrieman Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 That was an important win today. Could well have seen us slide back into previous form after last week but the team recovered well. Not vintage but always good to win even if not playing particularly well. Would love to get McCann signed up until the end of the season.Or longer... Nice to see Craig Thomson back. Not a lot of end product to have but he can trouble defenders at this level and he's another good option to have to challenge our forwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look forward to decent support for next week. I thought Millar was really good -cracking recovery tackle on one of them. High energy matters in all Leagues but more so here. McKay does all the dirty stuff but he does lack the ability of a killer pass. Very strong team effort and looking forward (for once) to Broadwood. Might be biggest travelling support on League business. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent again today. McCann put in a good shift as always but Miller was comfortably MOTM for us. He has found his role in the team and getting better each week. Overall we were poor today, a few players looked off the pace a bit. However we look solid at the back (minus a really rubbish goal today) so are able to grind out wins which will be really important. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully good vocal following next week help the team to keep the momentum going not so long ago we would have been drawing or even losing games like today when not been at our best. Manager sounded bit flat think he has man flu which we all know is a terrible illness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airdrie_3 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Millar should’ve got MOTM the last few games, the unsung hero of this team, need to tie him down pronto 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon EF Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Always thought Millar was the big loss for us and big gain for you guys when you took him, Page and Wilkie back in 2017. He's a cracking player that probably won't get noticed much by opposition supporters as it's not always obvious just how much he's giving to the team unless you're watching him every week. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanish Armada Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 He’s probably the best defensive midfielder in the league bar Gomis,Hard to think we used to play him as an attacking midfielder 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
