Airdrie’s new signing Dean Lyness was delighted to play his first competitive match in six months but couldn’t believe he didn’t start with a win after the Diamonds netted three times on his debut.
The former St Mirren goalkeeper joined Rhys McCabe’s men on Saturday as a free agent and was thrown straight in for Saturday’s 3-3 draw at home to Queen of the South, which saw Airdrie hold out with 10-men after Cammy Ballantyne’s late dismissal for a second booking.
It was his first outing since being part of St Mirren’s 4-0 defeat to Rangers in April and while he joked he was happy with the improvement in conceding just three on this occasion, he couldn’t believe he didn’t walk away with three points.
