Yes, the match was abandoned at HT when he got his test result!

41st Minute wasn't it? Seems very incompetent going with the squad when you've got a pending result, that's the stage where you step down and let the assistant take over

Not at all.  They were all tested when the squad first met up and he was negative.  They all got tested again today prior to a 2nd match on Sunday but Stark's test came back positive.

 The full squad are now “undertaking precautionary self isolation” for 14 days so we will be without Kennedy for the Dunfermline away match.

When did Margaret Ferrier get a job with the SFA ? What an incompetent shambles yet again.

[Stirling Observer]

Its part of football now and more and more clubs will have to deal with it. Hugely frustrating for the players affected who miss games and training whilst perfectly healthy but it has to be done to protect the rest of the squad

[Scotty]

For once the Scotland game was live on telly here ... was looking forward to seeing how Ryan Christie did only to find out yesterday he was out of the squad as a close contact of Armstrong. Nice result in the end but that was a hard watch. 

[Stirling Observer]

Brutal. Happy we are through but performance was woeful. Only two more chances to sort it out before Serbia game. Can't help but feel the formation is limiting the players severely. 

[Robert]

Shane Harkness has gone on loan to Rothes until January. Hopefully that gets him game time when the Highland League starts on Saturday.

Lewis Hyde has also gone on loan to Rothes:

Hopefully he gets a lot of game time whilst there.

Ryan Fyffe is the third youngster to go on loan until January, this time to Clach:

I really like him. 

 

I hope playing at clach brings him on enough.

[Jack Waddington]

Almost seems a waste of his time putting him out til January. Clach have only got two games left this month, tomorrow against Caledonian Braves in the Scottish Cup, then Wick away just before Christmas. Probably would've been better off sending him out for the season on a recallable deal

[Robert]

Goalie Martin MacKinnon has gone on loan to Buckie Thistle until January.

Are all the loans until 31 January?

I assume some of all could be extended. 

[RiG]

Kai Kennedy has left the club apparently after his loan came to an end.

[GaliantGrunt]

Understandable with the Virus/Lockdown situation

That is a blow, particularly with Doran being out just now.

However, given all that is happening just now, it's not the worst news of the week and the club, as it always does, will cope.

[Stirling Observer]

Big blow. He was an exciting player who linked well with Harper.

 

[SteveA]

Great opportunity for Daniel Mackay to come in and start the next few games. Would really look forward to seeing what he has to offer. 

[gingerjaggy]

just seen that he has signed a new deal with rangers and is in line to go on loan to Raith 

[RiG]

Maybe if we relocated the club to Kinross Services we'd have a better chance of signing / retaining players. 

[Stirling Observer]

That's a right kick in the teeth if true!

[Robert]

He’s definitely left us and media speculation is as stated above regarding him going to Raith:

I’m looking forward to seeing Mackay hopefully make a positive impact.

[Robert]

Just seen this on the club website. Given he is only 18, very understandable.

[Satan]

Undoubted talent, but raw and inconsistent - hence his bench time - not really what either party needed.

[IBM]

It was good to have him up here and he did have a bit of spark about him.  I will be disappointed if he goes to Raith Rovers but we will have to cope with it and some of our home grown talent will get a chance to outperform him which would be great.
