Falkirk - new manager, J McGlynn - loads of experience - can he settle things down in Grangemouth after turbulent times? Dunfermline - new manager - J McPake - got the Dees promoted but opinions split at Dens. Big re-build probably required at EEP. Queens - new manager - W Gibson - untried but has Grant Murray as support Airdrie - new manager - R McCabe - only 29 and with no real coaching/recruitment experience - something of a left-field appointment (just announced tonight) Kelty £££ - will K Thomson be staying or moving on? Loads of rumours. Bit of a risk trying to forecast how this will pan out - Falkirk probably with the safest pair of hands at a guess ... Montrose probably rubbing their hands at the upheaval amongst this lot. It feels strange that we're going into this season as one of the more known quantities in terms of the managerial team, with Wullie and Grant having had a quarter of a season already. As for Airdrie and Rhys McCabe, we'll have to start practising to defend long throws... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith_Raver Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Regarding Dave McKay he's a decent defender who was a regular for us in D1 but fell out of favour after an injury. He came back into the team in March due to suspensions and injuries to Benedictus and Berra. It took him a game or two to get into his stride. He played well in the 3-3 draw at Arbroath and came on for Dick in the Final. Not the marauding type of defender but good at defending set pieces. He'll do fine. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be curious to hear names, in order to see what we are aiming at as much as anything. Max Currie was or maybe still is one of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qos1990 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Max Currie was or maybe still is one of them. I gathered he might be, a former team mate of Gibson’s at stranraer. Wonder if Josh Kerr may be another someone we missed out on last season by all accounts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least our defenders won't have to deal with the threat of Innes Cameron scoring an own goal from an opposition corner... hopefully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel he can be a big player for us. If he replicates performances similar to the one against Arbroath he could be a cracking player. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think that is true but whatever the reason is he has been a miss . Skyline posts were always good I miss his replies to some of the crazy things I put on here hopefully he will be back soon . Away from that surely early next week we will here if the 4 who have been offered contracts will sign then we can move on .Some do not like signing ex players but Doyle is a real leader surely at the top of WG signing targets . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nditi I was good to begin with then crap and never got a look in towards end of season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
