  1. You beat me to it, just!
  2. Reece McAlear has joined Tranmere on a 2 year deal. Still only 20, I think his long term future ought to be at a higher level than League Two.
  3. Looking forward to my first trip to Kelty though. Hope we do better there than St Johnstone did in the Scottish Cup.
  4. I can’t really blame Premier for ignoring this group, it’s not exactly appealing to the neutral and the combined support for all 5 teams is only a few thousand so hardly an opportunity to boost subscriber numbers.
  5. It was on the day itself. (We won 2-0.)
  6. Made myself sit through the highlights and yes, Chalmers totally loses his man and allows a free header. Great cross in though.
  7. I thought Samuels put in a great shift by the way, he was a real handful. Carson and McAlear did a great job in midfield too.
  8. I thought we had a great first half, playing the better football and winning every single 50:50 ball. The fear was that we had failed to score, and sure enough the game quickly turned, the deflected strike then knocking the stuffing out of us, what a sickener. We had no choice but to make changes as our players tired, but every substitution just made us weaker (except the arrival of Allardyce).
  9. I think we could but I can’t yet bring myself to believe that we actually will. If both teams play their best I think the premier side will have a bit too much quality. It might depend though on what they have learnt from the 2nd half on Friday and how they change tactics.
  10. These Friday night matches have been pretty incredible. They often are when we are involved, for whatever reason. Arbroath get a 2 player head start, SaintJohnstone get a 2 goal head start. Yet here we are going into the play off final 2nd leg with a decent chance.
  11. Not sure if anyone mentioned it yet but our first goal should not have stood. Played should’ve stopped for a head knock and also Samuels was offside (not 2 yards offside like Callum Davidson says, but a wee bit offside). About time we got a wee bit of good fortune from the match officials.
  12. Dodds admitted post match that he’d got the shape wrong (stating the bleeding obvious perhaps, but at least he didn’t make excuses)
  13. We just look out of our depth here. It’s more one sided so far than any game I can recall for many years.
  14. Sky missed out on rights for the Champions League final and naturally decided that this was the next best thing.
  15. Can understand why he moved to Wigan, weather there looks great!
  16. So, after all these years, have we now found a name to go in option 9 below?
  17. Deservedly earning the chant from us, “Where were you when you were sh1te?”
  18. I’m trying to remember, didn’t we once have a penalty shoot out there before, maybe early season League cup about 15 years ago, which I think we won? Vague recollection of a young Vigurs scoring one then running up to the Arbroath fans, but I might be getting matches mixed up.
  19. Yeah that looked a really nasty one for Shane, hopefully he’s back in time for the start of next season.
  20. Both reds looked very appealable to me. I can see why Devine was deemed to have committed a foul, albeit a soft one, due to having his arm round the attacker as he fell, but the ball had already been headed towards Ridgers waiting arms and it was not a clear goal scoring opportunity. Duffy won the ball clean and fair and the ref was conned by the player’s reaction. Edit - sorry hadn’t realised this was a second yellow, thought he’d got a straight red.
  21. We started terribly but eventually got going before half time. Better second half with a few great chances to score. Draw was probably a fair result overall but I’d say it’s advantage Arbroath at this stage.
