gone fishing Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Yes we did we had Wallace total penalty box striker. Doris the best aggressive hold up player but same situation applies as it did then and now.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stan3600 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 We need our wingers getting to the bye line. We need midfielders breaking into the box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtiekev Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 I'm all for playing it a bit safer a way from home and play with the 5 in the middle of the park, but even after the poor start we have had there has been no one to be scared in this league, We need to pick up points especially at home, if you have 2 of Craigen, Miko, Whatley sitting in the middle of the park we could easily put 2 up front, what 2 deserve to start up front I have no idea but as things stand we don't score enough so it would be nice freshen is up, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Miko was horrendous yesterday. Not sure if he was subbed because he picked up a knock or Dick seen how bad he was playing. Based on yesterday he shouldn’t start against Alloa next week 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TASC_1878 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 TASC SOCIAL MEDIA MAN OF THE MATCH - RESULTCongratulations to Derek Gaston on winning the TASC Social Media Man of the Match for his performance in the Lichties 1-0 defeat against Dundee yesterday. The Arbroath number 1 received 100% of the supporters vote after he pulled off a string of top class saves and looked assured throughout as our Lichties were unlucky not to come away from Dens Park with at least a point.

WHM Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Miko picked up a knock early in the first half,stretching for a ball.Must have tried to run it off but didn't work. Miko was horrendous yesterday. Not sure if he was subbed because he picked up a knock or Dick seen how bad he was playing. Based on yesterday he shouldn’t start against Alloa next week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 What's gone wrong this season so far? On paper it's a pretty decent squad you guys have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afc_36_0 Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 What's gone wrong this season so far? On paper it's a pretty decent squad you guys have. 1. Chopping and changing the starting 11 too much2. Few players haven’t performed at the same they did last season3. We haven’t addressed our main issue from last season in that we dont have a good enough striker 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 19 hours ago, AFC360PUNK1320 said: With the shorter season and us struggling to score goals it looks like we are in a dog fight with Alloa and Queens and maybe Morton at the bottom. I think we still create chances but are just struggling to put them away hence i still think DC has to now play 2 up front with Doolan being the main striker but he needs help and he should concentrate being in and about the penalty area but when he gets no help he is having to come looking for the ball and the amount of times we see crosses going in the box and no AFC player there is frustrating. Still think we have good players and am confident in our squad but i do think DC has to change our approach to try and get goals and points on the board as at the moment we do not have a Wighton type striker who would sneak us 1-0 or 2-1 victories. C'Mon the Red Lichties, 36-0. Dick to be asking about Hester in January? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokerson Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Hester haha I don't think we are playing that badly in all honesty, hopefully get the first win this weekend and kick on a bit, scoring goals is obviously the main problem, but I don't see the others around us doing much better, early signs would indicate a dog fight with bottom 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtiekev Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 A lot might not agree but I'd like to see McKenna play upfront again as part of a front 2, he is more mobile and aggressive and has more work rate than the likes of Donnelly and Doolan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it's a load of shite tbh. Very doubt he is going anywhere with the court case pending. Good chance of him playing full time fot the prison team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 Dundee game moved to the Friday for the Telly. Unfortunately means we won’t make any money by selling the PPV to Dundee fans. 1st the Hearts game and now this. Shite 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
