ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Bit surprised to see Dean Hawkshaw return to Glenafton Athletic as I thought he'd maybe end up another League One club. Didn't work out as hoped here but he showed glimpses of real talent and I had high hopes for him at one point. Wouldn't be surprised to see him back at this level at some point in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to assume it won't be anyone from their first team squad, as astonishing as it would be to beat Celtic to Ajeti. Here are my best guesses Forwards https://www.whufc.com/teams/development-squad/squad/oladapo-afolayan Mid/LB https://www.whufc.com/teams/development-squad/squad/bernardo-rosa Sorry maybe I haven't worded it well but as far as I'm aware it's only the forward coming on loan from West Ham . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The previously mentioned forward from West Ham. He's apparently big and fast. He'll be at the club in September. The other player is a left sided midfielder who can also play at full back. Pleased about bringing in another striker. Don't think we need a left-sided midfielder though. Moore, O'Reilly, Robert, Thomson, Carrick and even Gallagher and Roy can and have all played out wide. Would much rather see another central player come in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 If the third kit is the same design as the home and away what colours would people like to see? I'd quite like sky blue with a navy diamond. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Leighton McIntosh has signed for Cove. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I’d love either of these options, I think the 3rd kit will just be a standard template for emergency use only. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably right enough, aye. Let's just hope if we do ever need it we fare better than we did in the 3rd kit last season; a 3-1 defeat and a 2-2 draw that felt like a defeat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if the new one will still be on of those 3 templates that SM showed on FB. If so, then I hope it’s the red one! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Livingston, Alloa, Stenhousemuir, Airdrie and Edinburgh City. We can realistically get out of that group 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyDD Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Could have a shout at progression with that group. Is that a full complement of plastic pitches, as well? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might not even have home fans by that point, but if we do, you'd imagine that spreading the home fans around the ground means no space for an away support. Home fans (especially season ticket holders) should be priority 1 for the return of supporters in fairness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G_H Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Not a bad group for us at all. will be interested to see what the season ticket deal is this year along with the pixellot stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all up for grabs indeed but you would have to think Livingston would edge it if they treat it seriously. I wonder if the whole idea is maybe a bit chancy and as last season it's the League that matters. Hard to say much more but let's hope Stenny are not the bogy lot again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamondman Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Edinburgh City would tick a ground off; highly unlikely even if the draw brings it about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Thornhill Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Leighton McIntosh signs for Cove Rangers. The grass wasn't any greener down south. Anyway, he didn't want to play for us when he had the chance to, so no loss to the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll do ok for Cove IMO. he was a decent scorer at this level without being anything fantastic, and nothing will really spring to mind in 15 years time when someone mentions his name. This is about his level IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
