Ex Machina Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Signing the team that won the league last season is an excellent idea imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the latest speculation I can see Gullan leaving and being replaced by a proper number 9. I can also see Masson going out on loan and perhaps Corr as well if we can get Watson and Murray fit. Ashcroft (who we’ve been linked to/rumoured to have interest in) starts again for Dundee unless they get another defender in by the end of the window I can’t see us getting him as it’s need to play basis for them just now, so we have to move on just incase but I have every faith in Murray/Barrowman and Potter has something lined up….

buchan30 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Quick question. Does anyone remember us playing Airdrie at broadwood in the 90s in the cup? I am sure Kirkwood scored a screamer? Can’t seem to find anything about it anywhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jilted John Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 It looks as though Ashcroft has played his way back into Dundee’s plans. Even if they get a centre half in, I can’t imagine him dropping down to the bottom of the pecking order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure we lost 4-1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevoraith Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I remember the goal- were we not giving him pelters for being fat and slow and he scored a screamer from 40yds or so? Unless I’m thinking about a different game though I thought it was at Stirling? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I'm sure it was played on a Monday night due to the ground being used at the weekend. It was the season we went down from the premier league. There was some poor guy had put on a massive accumulator of about 17 teams and had to wait for us. A team playing shire losing most weeks against Airdrie who were cup specialists amd had already knocked us out of the league Cup that season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am doing a wee blog thing to document all the stadiums i had been to, but could find nothing on it. I actually thought i may have misremembered and it had been held at the penny carrs or whatever it is called now, because the programme had an artists impression of their new stadium on the front of it. 4 minutes ago, stevoraith said: I remember the goal- were we not giving him pelters for being fat and slow and he scored a screamer from 40yds or so?

It was the same game, I remember fans giving him pelters then he done that and i think everyones jaw was on the floor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Reeee Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Would prefer to see someone who is comfortable right back/centre back come in than any other position. Millen has gone back wards in terms of his actual defending this season and its costing us consistently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's only game I mind against Airdrie at Broadwood, sure we were behind the goals as well for a change and Hetherston's goal was down our end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airdrie won 3-2 after extra time. We were in the side stand at the Scottish Cup game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MICMAC Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 4 hours ago, Geordie_Munrover said: I think/would like to see 2 loan players come in…. A defender and a striker (especially if Gullan leaves) A few have mentioned Lewis Stevenson but he’s part of the brickwork at hibs so I really can’t see him coming…. And he seems to be getting game time. Christian Doidge on the other hand would be a shout… hibs have just signed another striker and an attacking midfielder in the last couple of days… so I really can’t see where Doidge fits into that hibs team, he was hardly featuring before this transfer window. He certainly knows where the net is and would be great in the championship. Doidge and Ashcroft….. sorted I mentioned Doidge a couple of weeks ago as he's more of a bench warmer at Hibs and has spent a fair amount of time out on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brashy's Boots Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Ashcroft starting tonight for a Dundee side 2 up at half time away to Hearts doesn't really square up as a player going out on loan in the next week or so.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
