Danny Rogers has been loaned to St. Mirren who won promotion to the Scottish Premiership last season. He made his competitive debut for them today in a home League Cup game against Spartans. The game ended 2-2 and St. Mirren won 5-3 on penalties. @bungadiri @TheFalseNine Danny Rogers at St. Mirren F.C. (on loan from Aberdeen FC)
Rogers was on the bench as St. Mirren opened their Scottish Premiership campaign yesterday with a 2-1 home win against Dundee.
Still contracted to Aberdeen, and now on loan to Greenock Morton and started yesterday. Your Morton XI to face Hibernian here at Easter Road this afternoon: #WeAreMorton pic.twitter.com/joiE9EkDxf— Greenock Morton (@Morton_FC) August 17, 2019
I'm one of maybe 7 people in the world who sees Greenock Morton and immediately thinks of Dominic Cervi. This forum has clearly rotted my brain.
With the SPFL clubs voting to cancel the remainder of the 2019/20 Scottish Championship season, Rogers's final stat line will be 20 starts in goal and 4 clean sheets in the league, 3 starts in the Scottish FA Cup, and 1 start in the Scottish League Cup. Greenock Morton finished 7th in the league.
Left Aberdeen: https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/f...danny-rogers-exits-aberdeen-after-nine-years/ Possibly on trial at Kilmarnock: Understand it’s ‘when’ and not ‘if’ in terms of Bachmann to Killie on loan. JJ Hooper, Danny Rogers and Brandon Haunstrup all still on trial after featuring against Motherwell. Tshibola in talks over a potential move. Squad would look pretty set if these deals come off.— Lochlin Highet (@lockyhighet) July 21, 2020 Only one trialist in the squad today (likely to be Danny Rodgers).

Signs with Kilmarnock: 🙌 A new man between the sticksWelcome to Killie, @DannyRogers7— Kilmarnock FC (@KilmarnockFC) July 28, 2020 New title: Danny Rogers at Kilmarnock FC (Scotland) @bungadiri
Kilmarnock finished 8th in the Scottish Prem in this Covid-shortened season. Their top three (!) goalkeepers from this season have left the club. The #1, Laurentiu Branescu, was on loan from Juve and is now a free agent. The #2, Jan Koprivec, was signed last summer on a free transfer from Pafos (Danny Williams's former club in Cyprus) and let go at the end of the season. The #3, Jamie MacDonald, signed with Raith Rovers in the Scottish second tier a couple of weeks ago. So right now, Kilmarnock has two goalkeepers - Rogers and Curtis Lyle, a 20-year-old academy product with 0 first-team appearances to his name. They'll definitely add another goalkeeper at some point this summer, but right now, Rogers seems like the clear #1.
Well, about that "clear #1"... he's on the bench: The wait is over.Kilmarnock FC are back in action.Hibernian v Kilmarnock has begun pic.twitter.com/Z8P6uxeQVG— Kilmarnock FC (@KilmarnockFC) August 1, 2020 They acquired Jake Eastwood on loan from Sheffield United.

To my surprise, this was a league match, not a friendly, making this Rogers's first SPL appearance since December 2018. Eastwood must have gotten hurt in the first half, right?
Didn't see anything about an injury, but this is online: Martin Boyle inspired Hibernian to a 2-1 triumph over Kilmarnock at Easter Road as visiting goalkeeper Jake Eastwood endured a nightmare debut.— Sky Sports Scotland (@ScotlandSky) August 1, 2020 Eastwood, who only arrived on loan from Sheffield United on Thursday, was then withdrawn at the break and replaced by fellow recent arrival Danny Rogers. The 5 sub rule made the change easier, but it doesn't sound like he covered himself in glory. At least Rogers had the advantage of being at the club more than a couple of days.
One report is saying Eastwood was injured: Alex Dyer says Jake Eastwood was subbed off due to injury. Pulled muscle in his leg.— Lochlin Highet (@lockyhighet) August 1, 2020
Highlights below. Rogers comes out for a through ball deep into the box at 3:56. He doesn't get there but cuts the angle down a bit. The attacker's attempted chip is well off frame.
Rogers is the #1 for now, but not for long: "KILLIE EYE NEW KEEPER Kilmarnock boss Alex Dyer admits he has had to relaunch his search for a goalkeeper after seeing Jake Eastwood ruled out for up to three months. The Sheffield United 'keeper only completed his six-month loan switch to Rugby Park last week. He went straight into Dyer’s lineup for the opening game of the season against Hibernian at Easter Road. It proved to be a debut to forget, with the 23-year-old at fault for Martin Boyle’s opener before being replaced at half-time after suffering a thigh injury. Dyer has since been given the news that Eastwood now faces 10 to 12 weeks out of action." (Pulled from the Sky Sports Transfer Centre) Kilmarnock host Celtic on Sunday.
