Was hoping he'd get a chance this season but Toshney and Murdoch clearly in front of him at the moment.

Supposedly have a boy on trial called Alex Holden.

Midfielder from the Isle of Man.

Looks like an attacking midfielder in his youtube video.

lifesanocean · 12/8/2017 10:19 am

Yeah, looks like a winger/number 10 type. Just a kid by by the looks of it.

He's the owner of Hold Security, a computer security firm associated with uncovering the 2014 Russian hacker password theft. Sorry but that's not our priority at the moment.

Bowers, I'm already imagining his next comment to you............ you are talking at cross-purposes with GC2.

I think we're needing to see PATRICK N'KOYI and hopefully we will tomorrow night.
He's been largely forgotten about with having that early injury but apparently he's rated from within (obviously or we wouldn't have signed him).
If he lives up to expectations I make it we have a squad of 21/22 and we're just about full up?

I've heard the exact opposite. I've heard he's meant to be the next Walter Rojas.

Beardy23 · 14/8/2017 12:29 pm

Rojas would have got in the team the last 2 seasons

Have heard this also

Dyce_arab · 14/8/2017 1:39 pm

He looks fine on youtube loons

CCX2 2010 · 15/8/2017 6:03 pm

What's everyone's thought on the squad, is that our buisness finished?

I am happy with the outfield maybe one more Striker.

TheShed · 15/8/2017 6:29 pm

Need another striker and a winger imo. Not expecting either.

Although I still think we'll see 1 go and maybe then get 1 more in.

bowers · 16/8/2017 6:48 am

A big striker short for me still

boabmos · 16/8/2017 9:39 am

Don't think we will see anymore strikers, Mcdonald & Keatings first choice with Young smith and N'Koi as back up is the way I reckon the manager will see it.

Thats a pity. A big striker gives us options. If we are really serious about winning the league or getting promoted via the play-offs, it is best to have options particularly as we often struggle to score playing Rays way of playing - like we did the 2nd half of last season.

Tek · 16/8/2017 9:54 am

I too reckon we are a big striker away from the jigsaw being complete.

Can't see it though as he sold the club to Keatings and McDinald on the proviso they would get games and in their favoured positions i.e. upfront.

We have a lot of technically good players now.

I just worry they're all quite similiar.

I think Ray saw N'Koyi as his 'big target man' type/all round centre forward. Unfortunately, so far he's proven to be firstly, not a target man and secondly, not very good at much else. I don't think there will be anything left in the budget to get yet another striker in unless they can move N'Koyi on which is obviously not going to happen until January at least.

On a related striking note, both myself and Dragoodane Ristic commented last night that Keatings was poor again. Lightweight, slow and easily brushed off the ball anytime I've seen him so far. Struggling to see what he offers or what the hype is all about tbh.

Hoping to be proved wrong of course and that he'll come good once fitter.

We will win the league with this squad.
There is no 'big threat' from other teams with the relegated team from last year being gash.
I doubt we waste a wage on it making 'really sure' we are promoted.
Maybe if it is close in January we will add, adopting the same strategy hibs did last year
