I'm guessing that's the player people were hinting at a few months ago coming in as a player coach with the view to possibly being the manager in the future.

Not sure about a 1st team coach just yet. I've seen too many former players attempting to make the transition from playing to the managerial side of things and not making the grade...but who knows. Worth a try ? 

However, as a player I would have him back at the club in an instant. Just the type of player we have been missing and need in the middle of the park.

Some of you guys are too easy.

I'm just being a dick for a bit of sport.  You shouldn't provide it so readily.  

 

 

Good luck in the game when it arrives.

 

You must be a very sporty guy! :P

Player coach bound to be the only option we'd afford him . Be great to see him as a first team coach under mcglynn and Smith.

I heard a few months ago that Arfield was coming back but immediately dismissed the notion as I just couldn't see it. He'll be on, what, maybe £10-£15 grand a week or whatever so I thought that he would surely go to Hearts or Hibs for £3 or 4k or whatever it is they pay these days. Having said that, he'll not be short of a bob or two so maybe would consider it if it was going to be a route into management? McGlynn will be getting his pension a few short years so maybe the time line would work?

He would certainly make a big difference to our midfield, that's for sure.

With the number of players that came through our youth ranks to have good to great careers, we're absolutely due a Stephen Dobbie-esque signing of a player that has made his money and comes back simply due to his love of the club. Sign him up xxx

How many do we think we’ll take tomorrow night? Since it’s the school holidays I plan on taking the wee man up. Play like we did on Saturday and I fancy our chances. 

I'm considering going up. Not decided yet as I'm up early on Weds but I fancy it. Never been to Montrose ground.

Piddling numbers for such proud crowdwankers.

Actually heading to be pretty much slap bang in the middle of our last few semi-finals if we end up around 8k which I think we will

1997 vs Celtic (+replay) 9,000 (8,000)
1998 vs Hearts 10,000
2009 vs Dunfermline 9,000
2013 vs Hibs 6,500
2015 vs Hibs 6,000

How many tickets would you expect us to sell? (bearing in mind they are £28-38 a pop this time)

You would certainly get heart on your sleeve effort and demand nothing less from all those on the team.

One of his biggest attributes has always been his attitude. Does he have the coaching badges though for a suggested player/coach role?
