Cameron Joins On Loan

On Tuesday night manager George Shields tied up a deal to take Brechin City midfielder Greg Cameron on loan for the rest of the season. Greg made 15 appearances for the Glebe Park side. His main strength is his great vision and the ability to make a telling pass from the centre of midfield.
26 year old Greg started his career as a youth at Dundee United going onto to make 25 appearances in the first team before leaving in May 2010.
Whilst at Tannadice Greg had loan spells with Partick Thistle, St Johnstone and Raith Rovers.
This season Dundee based Greg has been in and out of things at Glebe Park and has most recently been on the bench for Ray McKinnon’s men.

Banjo Signs

Making an instant impact on his Montrose debut last Saturday against Albion Rovers was midfielder David Banjo who grabbed a brace in the 4 – 3 defeat.
Banjo only got internatonail clearance from the English FA on the Friday night to make his debut the following day and as signed a deal to stay at the club until the end of this season.
David who spent two seasons with Arbroath scoring at Ibrox last season spent the early part of this season with junior side Kinnoull before moving to Farnborough in the Conference League.
Londoner Banjo, 22, is on a mission to put his career back together after his dreams of hitting the big time down south were shattered when Spurs released him as a teenager.
Banjo’s experience at White Hart Lane taught him to keep working hard and believing – especially after seeing Gareth Bale grow to become the world’s most expensive player.
He said: “I was signed up to the Tottenham Centre of Excellence from the age of 14 until I was 16.
“Gareth Bale was at the club during that time and it just shows you how fortunes can change in football as he’s had a phenomenal £86milion transfer to Real Madrid.
“Danny Rose was there too and he has progressed into the first team.
“After Spurs I moved into non-league football with Walton and Hersham then AFC Wimbledon but my ultimate aim was to get back into full-time football.
Midfielder Banjo has caught the eye of bigger clubs since moving north of the border and admits he has had to adjust to a change of pace since leaving the bright lights of London.
He said: “It’s been a massive culture change for me after being brought up in London.
“I stay in Perth and it’s a lot quieter than I’m used to.

4000th Goal

Our third goal against Berwick Rangers scored by marvellous Marvin Andrews was our 4000th in the SFL/SPFL. Well done Marvin.

First Goals

Marvin Andrews opened his Montrose goalscoring account with a last gasp equaliser against Berwick Rangers recently. The bullet of a header came some six minutes after he had been penalised for a soft penalty kick award at the other end.
Scott Johnston also scored his first goal of the season at Berwick Rangers and teamed up with Garry Wood to run the home defence ragged at times during the ninety minutes. Woody also scored his ninth goal of the season during the second half.

New Managers

Two former Montrose players have taken their first steps into management after being appointed bosses of two junior sides.
Mike McKenzie has left his coaching position at Turriff United to join Dyce Juniors as their new boss.
