    Well, that was rubbish... As last season, we're far too inconsistent and miss a finisher up front. We really need to get one very soon if we want to even have a chance this season.

    To be fair, we lost Kevin Milne early on and had to replace him with Gary Sutherland, who can't buy a goal at the moment. Deserved win for Forfar Utd, though. They were well up for it from the start.

    Lochee United defeated Kirrie Thistle 3-0 in the final at Glenesk Park this afternoon.

    The main talking point of the game was a late Lochee United substitute receiving a red card within 90 seconds of coming on for sticking the nut on a Kirrie defender. 

    Bizarre. 

    Who was it? 

  3. Luke Graham gets my MOM for Lochee Utd yesterday. Strolled through the game, scoring twice, the first an absolute beauty from outside the area. Vics were decent first half but faded badly in the second period. 

  4. Been watching Dundee loanee centre half Luke Graham playing for Lochee United this season. A standout, with yesterday being his best game for the Chee. Scored twice, the first being a 20-yard screamer. 

    But...if the stories are true, Dundee have offered him a pittance and he won't be re-signing. This is a youngster supposedly on Sheffield Utd's radar. This smacks of gross incompetence on Dundee's part.

  5. Roll Up! Roll Up! Get your season tickets and macaroon bars here. Don’t miss this incredible bargain! Same price as last year but one less game to get depressed about. And, instead of facing Celtic, Rangers, United, Hearts etc, we bring you instead Hamilton Accies, Queens Park, Ayr Utd and even MorTEN.

    It’s a no-brainer!

    East Craigie doing their title bid no harm hitting double figures v Forfar Utd tonight in an 12-0 win. Could even afford to miss a penalty and a few sitters. For the score the Forfar keeper was excellent.

    Good pie and about a pint of bovril too. 

    Only moan was the haar made itbfeel like the depthsnof December. Sun was splitting the pavements in West end.

    Was at the game last night. Whilst delighted that it wasn't a boring goalless affair in Baltic conditions, double digit scorelines like this are becoming fairly regular occurrences and do nothing for the credibility of the league. Something has to change for next season. Perhaps we need two divisions so that teams are more easily matched.

  7. Only 5 of the C Angus team that started against Lochee a few weeks ago started yesterday against E Craigie. Three subs against Lochee were in the first team yesterday but none of their seven subs against the Shipbuilders were even involved against the Chee. Suggests another massive turnover in playing staff. Either that, or they have a squad size to rival Celtic's.

    Wonder what has happened to the project Coupar Angus
    Pumped by West End and Blairgowrie

    Was wondering that myself. Saw them beat Lochee Utd recently and they were definitely up for that game. They weren't slow to update their Facebook page then but they've been pretty quiet the past couple of weeks.

    Think Coupar Angus now have the Lochee Harp team and management from earlier this season on board who had applied to join the league as Menzieshill but got rejected.

    And if Menzieshill try again and get elected will they all up and leave and leave CA without any players and management?

  10. Great performance from Lochee United yesterday. Fully deserved win. Unbelievable half time draw prizes at Craigie. £70, £30 and £20. Most I've ever won was a tenner.

    Good to meet up with the Fitba Nomad. Look out for his blog with his match (and pub) report. 

  11. The famous Fitba Nomad will be attending the E Craigie v Lochee Utd game tomorrow, his second trip to Dundee this season. Easily recognised by his trademark shirt. Sure he'd be happy to chat with anyone interested in junior football and E Craigie fans in particular. Look out for his blog which he posts not long after the game. Very interesting and entertaining.

  12. Always been impressed by the C Angus keeper, Lewis Coutts, even when they were taking real tankings. His performances mostly kept the score down. Must be a relief for him to have some capable defenders in front of him for a change.

  13. I was also at the East Craigie game. Talk of the terraces was about what would happen if E C win the league. Even though they won't obtain a licence would they still have to face Banks O' Dee in a playoff, the winner to meet, presumably, Fort William? And if they won both playoffs and couldn't go into Highland League, would Fort William retain their place?

    If they do have to take part in Playoff BOD will be crapping themselves as Craigie recently gubbed them 3-0.
