  1. Don’t think he was atrocious at all, he is a better player than McCabe simple as that. Yes McCabe is good on the ball but he slows the game down and is as good as a man down off the ball. McMaster has been one of our best players so far this season and even though he didn’t have a good game yesterday McCabe was objectively worse.
  2. Just accepted that we will never win at gayfield. There is no style of football that will have you winning every game and Arbroath’s style is always going to be very effective against ours. We’ve honestly more chance of giving united a pumping at tannadice. However, I still believe in the way we play as I think it suits us and we are a much different prospect at home. Also thought the line up we started with was quite strange. I may be in the minority but I’d start Hancock at left back everyday and put ballantyne at right back ahead of Watson. Also think that’s one of our weakest midfield combinations imo. Far from a disaster in the grand scheme of things but probably the worst I’ve seen us play under McCabe. Can’t remember us having 0 shots on target in a game in years.
  3. Not going to lie when McMaster went off instead of McCabe I resigned myself to the defeat
  4. Ayr 0-2 Partick Thistle Arbroath 2-2 Airdrie Dundee United 3-0 Morton Queens park 1–1 Dunfermline Raith 3-0 Inverness
  5. I think a lot of Airdrie fans think we really should be winning this one mostly because basically all pre season predictions had us as the bottom 2 but having seen us and Arbroath this season, I actually think we’ll both be fine. Been impressed with Arbroath’s summer signings as from the outside looking in it seemed like the recruitment was what put them in trouble last year. I’d bite your hand off for a draw but I think it’ll be a good game between 2 teams I believe won’t be miles off top 4 this season. Hot take I know
  6. Yeah tbf to suggest young prunty is only here because of his dad is out of order imo
  7. Winning does matter, that’s why we play the same way we did when we WON promotion, WON every game in the cup and WON our last 2 home games. Makes perfect sense to me.
  8. Honestly would rather no first team players involved on Saturday, couldn’t care less about this cup
  9. Interesting that you view Airdrie’s style of play as negative for trying to build from the back and not the home team camped in their own half for most of the game
  10. Btw how are the advertising boards allowed to be so close to the pitch? McMaster injured by them and mcgregor was lucky he managed to jump over it last second. Looks like you’d get a good few injuries from them a season based off today, or are we just unlucky?
  11. Liam McStravick, signed him from linfield. That was his debut today
  12. Well 3 players out who all play the exact same position is pretty unheard of. I’m not sure there’s a team in the league that wouldn’t be struggling with 3 starting centre midfielders out.
  13. I would say yes, fair enough if you think of that statement in a financial sense but I never took it that way. I would say the high risk is signing unproven youngsters and the reward is then turning out like devenny, McMaster etc.
  14. Players who fit the squad. Not wanting players that are just there to make the numbers up doesn’t mean they have to be ready straight away. Nobody has been brought in to fill the bench then leave at the end of the season.
  15. Arbroath 2-1 Ayr united Dundee United 2-2 Airdrieonians Morton 1-1 Partick Thistle Inverness 0-2 Dunfermline Raith rovers 2-1 Queen’s Park
  16. It probably does suit yous just like it suited Ross county but we very nearly outscored them. Also sitting in doesn’t suit us at all so would be shocked if we set up any other way.
  17. Don’t know if United fans think we’ll be sitting behind the ball and be tough to break down but it’ll be the exact opposite. Think this one is more likely to finish 5-4 than 1-0.
  18. Yeah I get that, I guess I just don’t really agree that we need that much more than we have
  19. A lot of people saying that we don’t have any championship quality players, couldn’t disagree more tbh. Just because the players were in league 1 last season doesn’t mean they aren’t championship quality, I actually think most of them are. Call me deluded but with the way we’ve been playing I’m not worried about relegation even with our current squad. Having said that I can’t deny that it would be nice to see a Connor smith or wotherspoon in the door.
  20. Just bought my first season ticket today. Does anyone who has bought one before know how long it takes to get the physical ticket?
  21. Airdrie 3 Inverness 1 Ayr 1 Dundee United 3 Dunfermline 1 Raith 1 Morton 1 Arbroath 0 Partick 1 Queens Park 2
