Former Blackburn Rovers, Mansfield Town, Millwall, Darlington and Partick Thistle midfielder Bryan Hodge has signed with the club until the end of January.

Hodge came on as a substitute in the 3-2 defeat from Arbroath a fortnight ago.

With Gerry McGlauchlan and Derek Carcary both undergoing operations today and Jim Lister suspended for the visit of Airdrie United on Saturday, Hodge's aquisition will boost squad numbers ahead of the Diamond's vsit.
