Hislop is a well regarded striker having played for - among others - Inverness CT, Livingston, Gillingham, Rosss County as well as his last club Raith. he started at Shire. see http://www.soccerbase.com/players_details.sd?playerid=21456
He should add a vital ingedient to our sometimes inexperienced attack - IF he can stay fit. he missed much of last season through injury
There was an interesting long biographic piece on him on TimesOnline in March last year - see http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/scotland/article3594078.ece
