Is Brora game first team?

[CaleyD]

All other listed friendlies will be first team, including the two next weekend.

[+jagster]

Will it be Mixtute of 1st and youngsters each game. Only a day or two between Brora and Nairn. P.S. Love Ashers pies even if the grease causes a tsunami 

[CaleyD]

I've just been told that the remainder of the listed friendlies are first team.  It's entirely feasible that some of the squads would also include U20s....but that's just speculation on my part.

[ictfcsince94]

think we should be turning out regardless.  I thought it was a bit disrespectful to the young lads who put in a pretty good shift on Saturday that there was only a handful of people making the trip.... well, regardless, it was a scorching day in the broch sunshine, and no a bad game of footy either.

looking forward to tomorrow night, seeing the newbies in the flesh for the first time.

[davie]

quick half day today and then the ritual bike ride to a pre-season game! Gies a toot if you see me.

Are you wearing your strip on top of your waterproofs Davie ?.......................just so I know it will be you .....don't want to go tootin for the wrong side !

Good run out for the boys tonight. People on this are probably wondering about players they haven't seen much of or any of, I'll sum up what I thought:

First Half

I thought McNaughton looked very tidy, just what I expected, an experienced defender, comfortable on the ball and certainly would be an asset to the club, started left back but is right sided so would be good cover for Raven or tremarco.

Mulraney looked okay, definitely more to see from him, very direct and always looking to get on to his favoured left foot and get a cross in. 

Alex fisher was the least impressive out of the players in the first half, seemed like he was way of match practise, his touch just wasn't there but I think he will come.

as for the youngsters, was impressed by them especially Maclennan and Sutherland,

Second Half

Looked a lot sharper team in the second half, Polworth and Vigurs looked very impressive along with the boy Robertson on the right.

the new striker Boden is someone everyone can look forward to. Looks a cracking find, very clever striker and always sits on the last man. Was very unlucky not to get on the score sheet.

overall I am quite content with the team we have. Still holding on hope that we may bring back Billy McKay. So if we could take in McNaughton, McKay, another winger and another centre back I'll be more than happy

Agree with all of this, fair reflection of the game.

[Steaua]

Hi, I am contacting all the teams who will be visiting East End Park this season to advise we have a very good selection of past programmes between DAFC and CT. I would also like to inform you , that that there will be road works on the Halbeath Road on the way along to the Pars Stadium on the night of our fixture with you, Tuesday 26th July and I would advise you guys to leave a bit earlier than planned if you want down for the KO. The road works will be operational from 9am to 9pm, therefore the main problem will be on arrival for the match. I run the DASC Donation Shop /Tea Room/ Supporters Hub  at EEP, and we will have Filled Rolls, sandwiches, teas, coffees. hot chocolate, and soft drinks. The usual bars , Legends and Charlie D'S will be open for alcoholic drinks.
