Callum Wilson and Matthew Aitken sign on for the 2020/21 season.
Both join the club after leaving Dumbarton and Forfar Athletic respectively during the summer.
Callum, 21-years-old, made a handful of appearances in League 1 for the Sons. The midfielder making his debut at Pittodrie in the Scottish Cup, after joining from Partick Thistle’s youth set-up.
Matthew, 23-years-old, joins after playing matches across League 1 and League 2 last season, after spending a spell on loan at Elgin City. He made over 40 appearances in League One over a two-season period, where he played up-front and as a winger on both sides of the pitch.

Euan East has become the latest player to leave Cliftonhill. Shame as I would like to have seen him get an extended run on the team

A shame indeed, but he's gone; doesn't want to be here. Onwards.

Maybe I am being over optimistic but I think the new manager is putting together a decent squad. Good luck to the players who have been made offers but have chosen to move on. The manager has to work with the budget available. It's finding the balance for clubs like ours between putting a competitive side on the park and not endangering the overall stability of the club by overreaching on the players' budget.

Agree with sentiments from mild rover. The manager needs to ensure he has players that are committed and can work together as a unit. Even on our scale we do not want any one just working their ticket like some of the prima donnas we see in the higher leagues down south or up here.

This week’s Advertiser with the manager says he is looking for a first team squad of 15 players plus the reserve team. That’s a pretty bold move. I love the idea of a small squad more chance of good camaraderie. Who are the up and coming stars in our reserve team? Also glad to see he had left the door open for Euan East.

I love the idea of a small squad more chance of good camaraderie. Who are the up and coming stars in our reserve team? Also glad to see he had left the door open for Euan East. There are a few players who I personally think will be pushing the first team from the get go. Right back/wing back Daniel Moran. Had a season on loan in the Juniors last season, has bulked up and he looks much more confident in himself. Central midfield ‘Jal’ tall, athletic, can pick a pass, has an eye for goal and loves a tackle. Also a good communicator. Defo one to watch. Paul Fee. Reserve team captain and helps make them tick, another one who has spent time in the gym building up his strength before and during lockdown. Very clever player who has slowly added steel to his game. Out Wide/up front Kyle Doherty, had a few opportunities last season and I believe this will be a big year for ‘Doc’. Fernando Moniz a Portuguese lad who has pace to burn and an eye fir goal. Striker Kieran Dolan. Athletic, left footed striker who is just as comfortable off the striker or out wide. I dare say there will be others, that’s just off the top of my head.

Excellent signing. Actually ridiculous the loss of one player was to our team last year. Doesn’t say much for the others.
