I see we have signed a new keeper. Unless DJ is injured I am mystified by the signing.
a striker should have been top of the shopping list?

Well DJ should be dropped
However Gould should given the jersey but if you are so mystified , so am I at your comment about signing a striker
RB/ LB/ RM and probably another decent centre mid all before a new striker we have 4 good ones in White Buchanan Mullen Sheerin

They have almost all the competitive goals this season, Hippolyte has 1 of those but can't think of anyone else who has found the net competitively...technically 1 of Mullen's should be an og
According to Callum Carson, DJ is struggling with an injury. IMO if this is right then Gould should start & McCallum should be back up...but it sounds like McCallum expects to play according to some folk.

Had a look at our games on Soccerbase from this season and have to agree with Auldnik these four players have scored all of our goals this season apart from Gallagher against St Mirren and Hippo got one too against Raith. White 3 Mullen 3 Buchanan 2 Sheerin 1 Gallagher 1 Hippolyte 1

Be interested to know how many of these goals were in the league?
Every week I walk away thinking we've had nothing in the final third.

Have a look at the results page of the OSC & you would see. Come one guys, everyone knows all our wins were in the cups until yesterday, so obviously hardly any goals had been scored in the league.

Goals scored is a bit tenuous with regard to a new keeper. To get back on topic he looked fairly good except he is poor at kicking from hand. I don't think there was any need to sign another keeper at this stage of the season.

DJ was needing dropped so def needed a keeper to take over in goals, no idea why Gould wasn't given a chance though.
Can only remember him having one kick from his hands and it went skyward and dropped just inside the opposition half, wasn't the best but wasn't the worst. Still on the evidence of one kick I don't think you can say he is poor. At least it didn't go straight out the park.

He had a number of kicks from hand and all of them were poor. Alloa cottoned on to this very quickly hence Chopra standing close to him to stop him putting the ball on the ground

Really can't remember his kicks being that bad that it was noticeable, used to seeing DJ's go straight out the park though so keeping them in play was an improvement, or the odd one that went straight along the ground like the one against Morton which they then scored from.

One of them is only 16 and another doesn't seem to be rated as good enough to come in for DJ, which is puzzling as to why we signed him.
