Vril Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 As Col said - mcgregor is a good player. If given a chance he will do well for you. I’m very sorry to see him go but I don’t think he was happy to be on the bench for us or go out on loan. I wish him all the best (until such time as he faces us!) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At very least it’s starting to look like we’ll have plenty of attacking options off the bench. McGill s position has been needing competition, this signing gives us different options in this area, as stated previously McGill is technically all over the place, and really better as an impact sub, Team is slowly getting there, we must keep our core together tbough.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayos Noun Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 McGregor will end up a brilliant signing for Airdrie. Sad to see him go but he needs regular game time and it shows ambition that he wanted this. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airdrieman Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) We’ve been needing a proper winger the entire season so hopefully McGregor fills that role. I’d rather have him there than Gabby, or even Jamieson who’s wasted out there, and hopefully we see him from the start on Saturday. The Morton fans on here and on Twitter seem almost universally disappointed to see him go so hopefully that’s a reason to be optimistic. At the very least a proper winger can make a good impact sub which is another thing we’ve lacked for most of this season.

He cant play for a 3rd team. He goes back and stays at St Mirren or he stays at Airdrie, those are the only options. Hoping @Skyline Driftercan answer this too regards Lyness. As far as I'm aware he was only an unused GK sub for St Mirren in a cup competition at the beginning of the season so given his release from us can he sign/play for anyone else now that we've released him? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he didnt get on the pitch it doesnt count. You can only PLAY for 2 clubs in one season. A single minute counts though. I remember we tried to sign Declan McManus a few years ago and couldnt. He had dpent 1st half of season on loan at Morton but had played 1 minute of a European game for Aberdeen before he went on loan. That was the end of that. He had to stay at Morton for the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenny_m Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Notice from the Facebook page (from a well known airdrie man) that we will be signing a some more players and that the club needs to "develop young sellable players". I get that but incredibly difficult to do at League 1 level, promotion would be the priority to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for keeping us right about signing rules etc.. Can you answer this scenario, We will say Lewis Jamieson for talking sake who has played for St Mirre n and Airdrie this season and is the property of St Mirre n who then decide to mutually terminate his contract ( hypothetical situation) would he then be free to sign for another club this window, or does the 2 club rule still kick in for a now free agent........ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still kicks in. Whether he is a free agent is irrelevant. He cant play for anyone at SPFL level this season other than Airdrie or St Mirren. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting out of League 1 by putting the best team possible on the park has to be the priority. Do your long-term planning once you’re in the Championship. It’s a better league for developing and selling young players anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
