  1. New kits, courtesy of FootballNation and FNteamwear. Very understated, but kinda wish the sash was kept in some shape or form;
  2. @Afronoted in the 17/18 kit thread that Livi's going with FBT next season, think it's a real step up from Joma for you guys. FootBall Thai is one of Thailand's two dominant brands and supplies a boatload of clubs in the South East Asian region, but Livingston is their first contract in Scotland; they did supply Doncaster last year and Rhyll the year before, and will also be dressing Crewew Alexandra in 17/18. I own a bunch of FBT tops myself, really good quality all of them, but the brand does get carried away with excessive detailing sometimes. https://club25football.wordpress.com/2017/03/21/geylang-international-2017-home-shirt/ https://club25football.wordpress.com/2017/03/03/phnom-penh-crown-fc-2016-home-shirt/ Three other tops by FBT, think the top one would make an excellent Livi strip if you use the lion and thistle as superimposition
  3. Payday 2 is free on Steam right now, the devs are giving away 5 million copies. Not saying it's a good game but it's free so claim it while supplies last eh.
  4. I imagine this is a problem many of you may not be entirely familiar with, but I can't help but feel profoundly annoyed when compatriots decide try to speak English when they clearly have no idea what they're doing given the incredibly basic mistakes they make. For reference, English is compulsory in the latter stages of grade school and all throughout high school. At the very least, spellcheck what you're posting online. Case in point, someone who changed the colour of their hair;
  5. 'Grats to all involved, couldn't be more chuffed for the lot of you after my day at Tutties Neuk and Gayfield. Wonderful club and a good squad. Here's to not seeing you guys back in L2 for some time to come!
  6. Happy to see both Berwick and you guys pull through in the end, horribly nervy end to a shite season for both clubs. The sooner MacDonald and McGovern are back to being just players, the better for Clyde.
  7. Hiya lads, I had the pleasure of visiting Tynecastle over the Easter weekend, had an absolute ball (although I will forever regret stopping by while the Museum was closed). I picked up a copy of the commemorative Main Stand away kit, and 've done an article about it on my wee fitba shirt blog. Would be happy if ya gave it a read; https://club25football.wordpress.com/2017/05/01/heart-of-midlothian-20162017-commemorative-away-shirt/ Also grabbed me a home top (just the regular one). Anyone know when the contract with Puma runs out? The away is a belter but the home top has been naff two seasons in a row now.
  8. I'd like to thank everyone at the club and in the stands for the hospitality they showed us when we came to visit Gayfield for the match v. Edinburgh City last week. Was a pleasure meeting some of you, divvying out the stroopwafels, and the overall experience was unforgettable (hot damn those steak & black pudding pies, were those made locally?). Raided the club store at half time and snagged both the home and away tops for this season. I've done a little write-up on them and the day itself on my design blog, do give it a read fi you've got time; https://club25football.wordpress.com/2017/04/24/arbroath-fc-20162017-home-away-shirts/
  9. Reaching safety before Berwick, Clyde, and Cowdenbeath do, who'd have thunk it during pre-season? 'Grats to all my City friends, way to show that the club (and the play-offs) are a good addition to the SFL!
  10. Such a beaut, isn't she? Had the lad at Football Nation rummage through the back to find me the last L sized top;
  11. Don't usually like to double-post, but finished my write-up on City's strip for this season for my football shirt site. Give it a read if you like (and if you run the club's Facebook page, do consider posting a link to it and my site's Facebook page *hint*hint*nudge*nudge*); https://club25football.wordpress.com/2017/04/19/matchworn-edinburgh-city-20162017-home-shirt/
  12. We're back in NL after a mighty fine Easter Weekend in Edinburgh and that beautiful four-seasons-in-one-day trip up to Arbroath. Have to laud everyone at the club for their hospitality and genuine kindness to two complete strangers who wiggled their way onto the bus. Hope everyone enjoyed the stroopwafels, and hope to see you all back at the new Meadowbank one day. No doubt that it'll be for League football as I have no doubts City are staying up. Missing my bff Mr. Blobby though (Credit for pic goes to the good people at Abroath FC)
  13. Managed to bully the club into this exchange, at the least, but it's hardly confirmation;
  14. Hiya lads, did anyone buy the commemorative Home or Away top with the Main Stand printing and all? Worth paying 40 quid for over the regular version that's been discounted to 25?
  15. How well-stocked is the club shop usually? Looking to get me the home and away kitty if there's a sale going on again, hope sizes M and L are still in stock.
  16. Hey lads, I'm in Edinburgh over the weekend and will be popping into Football Nation to buy this year's home kit. Anyone own it? How's the quality? Crest and Joma wordmark embroidered, Ladbrokes stickered? It's a bangin' design no doubt, but I just want to know what quality I'll be getting for my 40 quid.
  17. Supporters bus has been confirmed, looks like there's 18 people and a Blobby heading to Arbroath on Saturday. Gonna be a great day out, thank you to everyone who reserved their spot!
  18. Had my eye on Tutties already, if only because Neuk means as much as screwing in Dutch. Visiting makes for a good anecdote. Figure the harbour is well worth a trip down the road too?
  19. Heya lads, I'm actually coming over to Scotland for once instead of pretending to know what I'm talking about on a footy forum, and it seems like I'll be travelling with the Edinburgh City fans to Gayfield this Saturday. Understood from others that Arbroath is one of the best away days in League 2, so really looking forward to visiting town. Any highlights I should definitely visit (besides the match and club shop ofc)? Things I should try apart from Smokies? I understand the pies at the stalls next to the main stand are really good?
  20. Lesley Gair contacted me yesterday with the happy news; there's 9 reservations so far towards a bus with 19 seats. The club is kind enough to chip in a hundred pounds if the bus can't be filled, but all in all, one seat should only cost 15 quid. Reserve your spot if you haven't already by sending Lesley a mail at l.gair@hw.ac.uk and we should have a cracking away day just before Easter.
  21. I have the missus to contend with unfortunately. Obviously I'd rather go see the Dream Team (and I would've dragged her down to Shielfield if there was a home game that weekend), but a supporters bus running would from Edinburgh to a footy match is too convenient to pass up and fits in our schedule. Arbroath is a nicer away day than Annan, and the gf wants to go seabird spotting so I can just drop her in the harbour and raid the pie stand in peace. City's fans seem like a good bunch, but no one said anything about supporting either Edinburgh or Arbroath.
  22. Already did; signed me and my girlfriend up, Mr. Blobby reserved three tickets, and miss Gair said she would send out further enquiries today. Should be a crackin' day out so hope everyone here'll consider sending her a message to sign up too.
  23. Since the thread could use a bit of a positive note, I had the fortune of meeting one Clyde fan last week, as he graciously donated a matchworn top from the 2007/2008 season. Did a write-up on it on my wee football shirt blog, give it a read here if you'd like. Did people actually enjoy the design back then? Don't mind it myself at all, but it was so overused (Falkirk, Kilmarnock, Ayr I think, even Berwick had it in red as an away kit).
  24. I'm planning my Easter getaway from the 14th 'til the 18th this month, and my girlfriend fancies Edinburgh as a destination. Looking to visit a game, and since City is playing Arbroath at Gayfield that weekend, I was wondering if the club happens to organize a fans' bus going to and from away games? Wouldn't mind travelling with you all on Saturday two weeks from now, maybe get me a City kitty too.
  25. Just looking forward to today's match now, can't imagine the state of this forum if he nets a hattrick and Clyde win 2-3 or something of the sort.
