Dean Sexton (goalkeeper)

Dean fought for his place with a number of goalies during his stint with the 'Lie, having signed from local rivals Neilston in the summer of 2003.  Well liked as a person, Deano eventually decided, after a shaky start to 2004-05 led to the signing of Kris Robertson, that a move was the best decision.  He eventually signed for Johnstone Burgh in the summer of 2005.

Bryan Smith (midfielder)

Bryan made the risky decision to transfer from Arthurlie to arch rivals Pollok in the close season of 2005 after becoming disillusioned with his time at Dunterlie.  Three seasons in Barrhead had brought a glut of goals from the midfield but not enough to convince Frank Lynch that he should be kept on for a fourth.  Already settled at Newlandsfield, Smithy has bagged several goals since making his debut pre-season.

Gary Sturrock (left sided defence/midfield)

DOB - 16.05.1978

Gary played for the 'Lie at the turn of the millenium, having previously turned out for Albion Rovers, and netted few goals in the sky blue and white, most rattled in with his fearsome left foot from the penalty spot.  The left sided midfielder was a combative player who unfortunately had a slight temper on him which could cause problems.  He has subsequently turned out for local rivals Neilston and Pollok and is currently plying his trade with Greenock Juniors.
