Redstar Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Just listened to Brown's interview on RedTV and he said he is very confident of announcing a new signing soon. Wander who that is?Wild guess ...could be the boy Boyle from Montrose...which is more of a stoke of geographical luck rather than the "contacts list"... which has yet to yield even one...not... "by numbers" signing? 1 4 Link to comment
dj_bollocks Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Won't it be a player back from injury... which is "like" a new signing... 1 Link to comment

"by numbers" signing? No. Broon mentioned that Boyle has just started a full time job, so can't train with us at the moment. Didn't have a job when he trained with us in the spring. No deal pending on him till after he sees him in friendlies. Link to comment
wilm1542 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 How about Niell McGinn? 24 year old Northern Irish Winger released by Celtic currently a free agent. Swear there were rumours we tried to loan him last season. Link to comment

sheepiekev Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Just listened to Brown's interview on RedTV and he said he is very confident of announcing a new signing soon. Wander who that is? Can rule out a couple.The lad Boyle from Montrose is working full-time during the day now, so they're just keeping an eye on himThe Queens Park full back is injured and out for 2-3 weeks - He's been asked to pre-season training when he's fit. Apparently, he was recommended to us by Paul Hartley who said he was the best defender in Div 3, and he was then scouted by Craig Robertson. Hopefully it's a decent striker to play alongside Vernon.

Ke1t Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Undoubtedly someone we've never heard of, to fill a role that isn't vacant, and to do so ineffectually. But he'll be cheap, for sure. 1 3 Link to comment

seanthesheep Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 it will be the lad mcginn fae queens park i mentioned on other thread Link to comment
sheepiekev Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 it will be the lad mcginn fae queens park i mentioned on other thread It isn't - he's injured and has been invited to come to pre-season training when he's fit in a few weeks. Link to comment
Ke1t Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 You've met our chief scout Craig Robertson I assume then Kelt? Quite the title, that. Like calling a scaffy a 'Salvage Technician First Class'. No, I haven't. Link to comment

sheepiekev Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 Rumours on mad it is him. I'd be surprised if Brown signs another winger. Link to comment
wilm1542 Posted July 3, 2012 Share Posted July 3, 2012 I'm imagining it'll either be a striker or defender as has been mentioned several times over the past few weeks. However McGinn can also play a secondary role as a full-back Link to comment

Henry Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I'm imagining it'll either be a striker or defender Or a midfielder or a goalie!!!!!! Link to comment
sooth_stander Posted July 4, 2012 Author Share Posted July 4, 2012 If we get the two McGinns, then re-sign Reynolds, then that would be a decent summer. Sounds like the ex Celtic McGinn can play as a second striker, and the Queens Park McGinn is a right back. Link to comment

BadgerSheep Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Loan? He's a free agent. Must be a 6 month deal then. To be fair if true will prob get a full year but will depend how he plays. Link to comment
