Craigen to FC Edinburgh. Good signing for them that.
See JT has gone to Kelty Hearts.
Good for them.0 -
I think the club should be doing injury updates - Gold, Hammy and now maybe McKenna?

It’s all very worrying. We’ve got to. HOPE that most of Allan, Shanks, Corfe, Oakley, Jacobs and Isiaka work out. That’s assuming Tait and Hancock are safer bets.

What's with the Iceland connection ? We signed Bakare and Ford last season also from Icelandic teams. Have we got an extended scouting system ?
I think Dick shops there.1 -
In loan until January. That’s not good.0 -
Marcel Oakley We are delighted to announce the loan signing of 19-year-old right back Marcel Oakley who joins the club on loan from English Championship side Birmingham City. Coming through Birmingham City’s Academy, then academy manager Kristjaan Speakman said, “Oakley has the flexibility to play centre-back or right-back and is a very robust defender who excels in one-v-one duels in either position. His athletic qualities are improving and in possession as a right back he has the physical and technical qualities to join play in high areas of the pitch." Marcel scored the only goal of the game in his senior debut for Birmingham in the EFL Cup against Colchester United and made his Championship debut against Reading. We would like to thank Birmingham City for allowing Marcel to make the move to Gayfield, and Loan Manager Martin O'Connor for his assistance. We look forward to welcoming Marcel to Arbroath! Welcome Marcus! C’mon the Lichties

Not clear if he’s retiring or stepping down a league or two.

That’s JT away. Shame, as he’s been great for us. But he wanted to go and, truthfully, he was getting near the end. Still, an excellent game at Centre back this week.

Welcome Marcel
A 19 year old kid moving alone from Birmingham to Arbroath. We’d better take good care of him. It’ll be tough.2 -
I don’t really understand how a loan from England will work. Cant train with his parent club unless he’s crazy commuting. I suppose we’re slowly building up a pseudo full time bunch with Fosu and Corfe already training together.

I’d accept Dylan Tait, Logan Chalmers, Euan Henderson…. And Tom Rogic.

I’m bored. I think I’ll start a few rumours.

Nicky Low has been my favourite Arbroath player since he joined. I’d like him to stay. I am very disappointed if he’s trying to force a move. I know loyalty is not much in football but we absolutely saved his career and he should honour his contract. That said, we don’t know what’s going on. Please stay Nicky.

Injury
Strange. He played 90 minutes on Tuesday and didn’t limp off.0 -
According to Twitter Nicky to Morton is off and Dylan Tait to decide between Arbroath and Raith.

Power of selection DC always bangs on about. McKenna in the 10 just not working right now. Also unsure on what it means for Nicky Low. I have no idea but Tait seems like a good footballing player and if we’re gonna get the best out of Scott Allan we need more guys with that in the team
Maybe if we have some players who’ll pass the ball on the ground Hilson might score a few. Maybe.1 -
Can I stop refreshing Twitter now?

Any injury updates? JT, Gold, Hammy?

Wasn’t at last nights game but for me McKenna is the absolute least if our problems and he’s been asked to do a whole lot of heavy lifting with what he’s getting given. We’re not getting forward for any period of time at all and it’s usually him and the striker (that’s usually not even a striker) having to try make use of a punt up the park or into the channel against the whole back 4.
Team overall is just not clicking
Agree. McKenna not playing great, but still chasing, driving and generally giving his all.1 -
I’d agree we were dominated for large spells last night, kind of expected that. Partick must’ve squared the ball across an open goal 4 or 5 times.
For all the stick he gets I though Hilson put in a great shift, Thomson was playing well out of position until he went off.
Mckenna & Jacobs we’re awful.
Jacobs was pretty good.0 -
Hancock was very good at left back. That’s the best I’ve seen Stewart play at right back and he did ok at centre back. Jacobs was good. We got 90 minutes from Allan and he started to look influential. Ricky Little marshalled his ragtag defence magnificently. Corte showed flashes.
With Hilson up front supported by Bobby we’ve got no out ball, especially if we insist on high balls. Mikey McKenna not himself - he looked angry, like someone told him to get vaccinated.
Bring in the reinforcements, quick. Maybe we need a defender too now.2 -
Disappointing but a decent defensive performance from a very depleted squad.

If thistle could finish this would be verging on another 9-0

I’d love to see him back in the squad tomorrow but I can’t see it happening.
