I'm guessing Sam Oji's trial never materialised then? Pitty GMS didn't recover in time for today. And 2 goals for Odi? Astonishing given he barely found a strike against Clach on Thursday.

Aberdeen took in 6 trialists today but Mackay-Steven was not one of them.

Not a bad player, as it says on the tin plagued by injury but if we get him fit then i think he could be a secent player for us.

Well done to the lad for getting a good deal, all the best to him.

I liked the way the old kit had the orion group logo stuck over where flybe would be printed. Sooner the new kit is out the better.

We did do very well in the 1st half. Number 7 was very impressive whoever he was. Blumstein also looks a really good find, quick feet accurate passing and a very neat free kick taker, was unlucky not to score. Was also nice to see Jonny Tuffey get a very warm welcome from the fans. Nobody really had a bad game tonight, looking forward to games against bigger teams though. Oh yeah...where was Sammy Oji?

He was actually, he was standing next to Jonny Hayes in the crowd.

Half 7 kick off.

He has signed up with us. Not sure if it is a 1 year deal or two though. He has signed a 1 year deal with the option of a further year.

It won't hamper us that much this year. Cox and Blumstein are only 20 and are likely to feature regularly. Can't remember if Odhiambo is 21 or not? The likes of Morrison and Ross, even Shinnie have shown a lot of potential as well so wouldn't bother me to see them on the bench. I don't agree with it either but looking at some of the young players we have in our squad it really dosen't bother me at all.

As soon as i found he signed the first thing i did was go onto Partick's site to watch that game.

I'm still waiting on confirmation that Tokely's signed a contract :angry: That hadn't occurred to me, your right there was never anything about that.

Official site is portraying its usual wall of silence. Nothing about Tuffey at all.

I think this is a signing that highlights both the calibre of club we have become to attract such a well regarded player and that we intend to perhaps do more than just "survive" in the Premier League. Alot of the clubs linked with him were in the football league and given that we were able to persuade him to come North i think also means that Terry Butcher deserves credit in getting him here. Competition in goals will be tougher than ever this season at ICT and that alone will be a very intresting race throughout the season.

2 of the most comnsistent and well thought of keepers in the country are going to be in our squad!

I see Hereford beat Swansea 2-0 tonight. Looking forward to seeing what MeadowEnder says about Lionel and Stratford following this result.

Saying i'm suprised is an understatement.

I felt quite sorry for him having read this, i really hope he makes a recovery and someone takes him on. He was an honest pro and a really nice guy.

Looking on positives he is very good getting forward, despite his height he can be quite fast, and he can be quite solid in the tackle, his weaknesses tend to be his positional awareness and a tendancy to overplay at the back sometimes. He also has the ability to produce the unexpected such as scissors kicks in his own penalty area., your sure to get a laugh. If he settles into the first 5 minutes comfortably then he will probably have a decent game, if he starts of by making a mistake you can be almost sure if won't be his last. He does have talent, it's just a case of unlocking it consistently, hope he gets a deal and turns out well.

Is set to become Elgin's new assistant manager combined with a playing role as well. Think he will make a brilliant manager one day ,i hope he makes his way to a top job somewhere.

Said in the Courier that we have ruled out a move for Duff now but havent ruled out the possibility of signing him should he still be available in the near future.

He struggled to keep up with the pace in the games i saw him play and he often struggled when it came to putting in a tackle. Seen you guys against Morecambe last year, if that was anything to go by then i think he will find it difficult. The only good point he really has is his ability to take a good set piece.

:D Grant was a rock at the back last season, he will probably be one of the last players to go through his whole career as a one club man (apart from the brief loan stint at Elgin ).

very cheeky.

Staying in Heysham at the time and driving through to the game with family, looking forward to it.
