Hoops goalkeeper Colin McCabe is relishing the battle during his loan spell with Stenhousemuir.
STENHOUSEMUIR may be languishing at the bottom of League One but there is no other place that young goalkeeper Colin McCabe would rather be learning his trade.
The 19-year-old had a spell on loan with Warriors in the second half of the previous campaign and he was delighted to return there in the summer, this time for the full season.
So far the Irish youngster has played 18 games in all competitions for Brown Ferguson’s side in a tough and unforgiving football environment.
Playing alongside and against seasoned professionals and in a team struggling for results, he has been thrust completely out his comfort zone.
Sure, he would have preferred Stenny to have won more matches and be further up the table but, individually, this is exactly what he wanted to experience from his temporary move. He has had to grow up quickly.
The big shot-stopper already feels that he has become more of complete player at Stenhousemuir and he told the Celtic View that it will prove hugely beneficial to him in his long-term aspiration of becoming a first-team player in Paradise.
How have you enjoyed returning to Stenhousemuir again his season?
