Alan Murray Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Very happy if this turned out to be true. Could well displace Fox next year, good keeper with plenty of SPL experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Dastardly Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 I hope that all of Archie's signings are going to be of this quality. Solid SPL experience and I'm sure he will be pushing for a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThickAsThieves Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Happy with this. Is he coming in as our goalkeeping coach too? I know he does that with Alloa (I think it is?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Good back-up. I notice that St Johnstone have just re-signed their 1st choice keeper. Is the Tuffmeister still there, or is he out on his ear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potty trained Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Peter Barlow? Anbsolutely shocking with cross balls, i mean train wreck stuff! Apart from that, good shot stopper and kicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marco77 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Decent signing. A player with good experience and could combine playing role with a coaching role at the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northernsoul Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 To be honest, this is the best it's going to get for us back up wise. He has the experience and if he has been offered a deal, then maybe he'll also juggle the coaching aspect too, since Hinchy is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
read'n'yell Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 I wonder if it could work - him being coach and possibly playing too? Be training himself. Quite happy with this signing, always thought he was a decent keeper and will have a lot to pass onto Fox. Wonder what this means for Scully? Maybe another loan? Do we keep with him, I know he's young but what are people's opinions? Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing him go. Don't think he will manage the step up but it's hard to tell with goalkeepers - so confidence driven and young goalkeepers often struggle.

GrantB Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Decent, solid signing who will provide backup for Foxy. Added bonus if he will be taking over Hinchy's role as GK coach. Still think we will need to sign a young keeper as well though. Possibly Robbie Thompson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think we will need to sign a young keeper as well though. Possibly Robbie Thompson? I think we could get away with keeping Scully,he'll probably be on peanuts and the chance of fox and Gallacher being out injured will be slim to none! what age is he now? could he still play in the under 20s?

I was tempted to keep Scully for the U20 team, but I think he's already over age for that (21 in October). If he can play for the U20 squad then keep him and see if that helps him to develop, if not it may be time for him to find another club.

The Arch Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 The Daily Express guy is nearly always right when it comes to transfer rumours. He revealed we were signing Sean Welsh last summer, weeks before it was officially announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
