Carlisle born midfielder who typically plays centrally or on the left side chipping in with useful goals from midfield. Signed for Gary Naysmith on an emergency loan on 20 March 2018 from St Mirren. He was 23 when he signed having made over 150 competitive appearances for other clubs. He had been at QoS as a schoolboy before joining Carlisle United in 2010. He went straight into the side for a memorable debut in the 3-2 league win at Dundee United on 20 March 2018.

He then signed a one year deal on 8 May 2018 with Naysmith commenting, "he gave us a good balance in our midfield. It's no coincidence that since he came into the team our performances and results improved remarkably. Josh is a hard working, technical player who can play in a number of positions." His first QoS goal was in the 4-0 League Cup win at Edinburgh City on 21 July 2018. On occasion he has played for QoS up front to cover injuries in the squad.

Todd was widely praised for his role in the 1-1 Scottish Cup draw at Dundee on Saturday 19 January 2019. The Saturday after (26 January), Todd was substituted shortly before half time with a knee injury in the 2-1 league defeat at Partick Thistle. This injury kept Todd out of first team contention for the 3-0 Scottish Cup home replay win against Dundee on Tuesday 29 January. Todd was announced on Tuesday 26 February as having signed a pre-contract to join Dundee at the end of the 2018-19 season. He was still out of the QoS team at the time due to the knee injury picked up at Partick. After playing an hour in a 2-1 closed doors victory over Hearts on 23 March 2019, Todd returned to competitive action with an impressive display in central midfield in the 2-1 win at Dundee United on Saturday 30 March 2019.

Josh Todd played 50 competitive first QoS games in his just over a season at QoS initially on-loan and then directly contracted to the club. That was made up of 38 league games and 12 in cup & play-off games. He scored 7 goals all in season 2018/19; 6 in the league and 1 in the league cup. The last of those 7 goals was beautiful curling 52nd minute goal from the edge of the box to put QoS 2-0 up in the 2-1 home league win v Dunfermline on 20 April 2019. The last of those 50 appearances was in the end of seson play-off 0-0 home draw v Raith Rovers on 18 May 2019 for a 3-1 aggregate success to preserve QoS' status in the Scottish football 2nd tier.

A new member of the squad but a familiar face this afternoon as Aidan Fitzpatrick joins on a one-year deal. The 20-year-old winger has been without a club after securing his release from Norwich City earlier this month. He started his career at Partick Thistle before earning a move to the Canaries, whilst there he spent the 2020/21 season on loan with us.

Manager Allan Johnston said “Aidan is someone we know well. He earned his move from Partick to Norwich with his performances, but things haven’t worked out for him down south. We immediately showed our interest when he became available as he has the ability to cause teams problems. This gives us other options going forward and more competition for places and it gives him the chance to kick start his career again”.

The 23-year-old central midfielder joins on a season long loan from Bristol Rovers.

Ben was born in Durham and signed a two-year deal with Rovers in the summer of 2020 for an undisclosed fee from Middlesbrough. While playing for Boro’s under 23 side he bagged seven goals in seven games.

On completing the deal AJ said “Ben has played at a decent level in England which has given him good experience. He has a good left foot and is a decent passer of the ball so I think he will be a good addition to our squad and will complement the players we already have at the club”.

The 21 year old striker was a stand out for Alloa in particular last season where he was a team-mate of Lee Connelly and scored 6 times in 15 appearances. He also struck 10 time in 22 appearances for Stranraer in 2018/19. He has been with Kilmarnock since signing for them at 14 and made his first team breakthrough at 18 years old, albeit his time has mostly been spent on loan since. He also made several appearances for Scotland at u17 level.

Manager Allan Johnston said, "Innes is a forward who has caught my eye a few times in the last couple of years. He did well against us last season and will give a more physical presence to our attack, complementing the players who are here already and providing something different. He started the season in Kilmarnock's first team so I wasn't expecting him to be available but with Killie signing Callum Hendry yesterday the opportunity came up to bring Innes in and I took the chance to speak to him with Kilmarnock's permission. He was keen to come in and we were able to get a deal done. I'm looking forward to working with him."

Cameron returned to Kilmarnock, briefly, during the January transfer window but returned to the club after his parent club signed Kyle Lafferty.

Joining the squad for the rest of the season is 17-year-old Max Johnston. The defender who is the son of Manager, Allan arrives on loan from Motherwell.

He joined the Fir Park side as a 12-year-old and has progressed from the youth academy to the first team squad. Signing a professional contract last summer, he featured as a 16-year-old in their pre-season friendlies and making his first team debut earlier this year. His performances attracted interest from a couple of Premier League clubs down south in the summer.

AJ added “He has done well at Motherwell and has been involved with the first team, but in order to progress his career, they feel it is the right time for him to go out to try to gain more first team experience. He is good going forward so that gives us other options and it gives us competition in the wider areas either at full back or in midfield. So, he will be coming here to challenge for a first team place”.

The first signing of the January transfer window, the 23 year old midfielder joins on loan from Partick until the end of the season.
