Has joined us from Blackburn on loan! 23 y/o midfielder who’s been featuring for their U23s - seems to be highly-rated and liked by Rovers! Welcome Brad!

Yes my Blackburn mate says he has scored 6 in 6, wonder whose place he will take?
I am told he can also play up front
Been on loan at St Mirren

Looks a tidy player, wonder if he'll be straight in for Sunday?

Sounds like a good loanee who could put pressure on those already with a first team shirt.

However i do expect to see a departure possibly on loan with Ben Pringle a distinct possibility even Liam McAlinden could be one to go out as well with young Freddie Price going to maybe a National League club to gain valuable match day experience in line for more first team games next season.

I agree, feels like our squad is well-balanced and we already have players struggling to get gametime. If we were desperate, I'd say maybe winger or striker is where we'd go for so I'd expect a player to leave now.

I'm interested to see what Lyons can do, 23 years old but he hasn't made a senior appearance in over a season. Could be make-or-break for him.

Wonder if DA's father who does a lot of scouting still in homeland Scotland I understand, has recommended Brad to his son, following Brad's period on loan at St Mirran.... :?: :?: :?: Whatever DA will have done his homework on the lad and good to read elsewhere that he's in a goal scoring run of form at the moment.... :) :) :)

Also this is the 3rd Lyons to be connected with our club over the years. Who are the other 2... :?: :?: :?:

Not being deliberately negative, but that for me, could be the most important point.

Andy Lyons started and ended his career with us, left winger, Darren Lyons signed from Macc, right winger, both decent!

Darren Lyons. Was he the winger who had a bit about him, but used to swear and kick the sponsorship boards if he messed up a cross? :twisted:
