Youngsters Kevin McDonald, Stephen McConalogue and David Winters are all back after loan spells to Morton in the case of the first two, and Forfar.
The highlight of David Winters' short stay at Station Park was undoubtedly the hat-trick he hit in five minutes as Forfar scored seven past Stenhousemuir on 6 January.
No such glory came the way of Kevin or Stef during their respective one and two month connections with Morton but the experience of coping with all the problems which have recently been afflicting the Greenock club will stand them both in good stead in the future.
