(@ElginCityFC) January 11, 2024 Allan Hale, who became the Black and Whites boss last month, has already taken Cove attacker Dayshonne Golding on loan until May, following his first signing as manager, which was full-back Lyall Booth from his former club Huntly. Cove boss Paul Hartley is understood to rubber-stamp the switch to allow Gallagher to build up further competitive experience. Back-to-back 2-1 wins against Peterhead and Stranraer have lifted Elgin to eighth place in League Two and they travel to ninth-placed Forfar this weekend.
