Rather than starting a new thread each time there's a snippet of news regarding a former player, this thread can be used for such info.

In a similar vein to the 'Ex ICT players score' thread.

 

I see that Dougie Imrie has signed for Hamilton Accies. Has he still 'got it' for the top-flight? He's just endured a depressing season with a very poor Morton side. What I'm really surprised about is that he's only 30 - I always thought he'd come into senior football at a relatively late age, being snapped up from the juniors - he seems to have been around for ever!

 

Reluctant to wish him too much luck as he's obviously going to be in direct opposition to us next season!

Why was Hoban subbed off in stoppage time?

Kevin McHattie had his penalty saved in the shoot out against The Spartans so Brechin stay in the Highland League. He was the last taker, but their fourth was saved too so at least he doesn’t get all the blame!

I also gather that McHattie has been “credited” with an own goal for The Spartans opener.

I watched Hoban and Draper for Elgin at Bonnyrigg yesterday. I’ve seen Elgin 3 times this season and overall I think any speculation about Hester making the step up to our level is just daft.

Hester has put in a transfer request. Seemingly he wants to play for a team further south as he moved south with his work.

I think it was just a stunt as Steven Dunn, at 52, becomes the oldest player ever in the SPFL.

Ross Draper appointed as Manager of Elgin City on a three year deal:

Be interesting to see where Kennedy ends up, he did alright for us, and was defo the pick of the bunch for Falkirk when we beat them in the Cup, I liked the way he kept going and didn't hide when things when against them. We are too far North for him to come back, but would love it if he did

Marley Watkins is now at Kilmarnock. He’s scored today with Robbie Deas providing the assist. 

Dan MacKay has been loaned out to Livi by Hibs.

James Vincent is now a youth coach at Stockport County.

Miles Storey is now with Curzon Ashton.

Manny Duku is now in Gibraltar with Manchester 62.

Tobi Sho-Silva is now with Maidenhead.

I see that due to a change in personal circumstances, Gary Warren won’t be able to play for Clach for the foreseeable future (but remains a signed player).

Is that due to his role at County?

Ross Draper has stepped down as Manager of Elgin for personal reasons but is continuing as a player. Barry Smith has replaced him.

And he got sent off today on his debut. 

Alex Cooper has turned up at Brora. 

Did anyone else see this BBC Sport headline and nearly choke on their cornflakes?

For the avoidance of doubt, it not Billy!
