In December 2008, he joined Stenhousemuir on loan for a month.[2] He made four appearances in total for the Warriors and returned to Clyde with the short-term loan deemed a success. He then joined Stranraer on loan until the end of the season in January 2009, along with Jordan Murch.[3] However, the loan was terminated early and he returned to Clyde after only three appearances.
