18 year old 'Barflies' apprentice Jack Brannan has today joined Gretna 2008 FC on a Development loan through to January. The loan will allow Jack to continue to play for our u20's side and train with our first team whilst getting regular first team action in the Lowland League with Gretna 2008. The move sees him link up again with near neighbour Jack Dickinson who joined Gretna permanently in the summer.

Jack featured yesterday afternoon as the QoS u20's beat their Carlisle United counterparts 2-0 in a friendly down at Carlisle in a game most notable for a wonderful goal from Connor Murray. We hope to carry a more detailed report on that game later.
