Then expect them to help us win games when brought on or start due to injuries and suspensions? Convinced more than ever, that the Watson signing spells the end for Walker, also depending on the Dow injury still think Stowe is done also 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to be fair to them both they played really well on Tuesday night when introduced 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be missed this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Absolutely gutted for him it must be so hard mentally to come back from injuries like this as a Part Time player. He will be well looked after by the club and hopefully is staying positive. He will still only be 32 when he returns in 9 month and could still have good few years left playing football so I hope everything goes well for him. Arbroath legend, love the guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lichtie78 Posted July 25 Author Share Posted July 25 That’s an absolute gutter. As others have said, hard to see him coming back from that. Will go down as an Arbroath legend and a key part of the best Arbroath team I’ve seen in my lifetime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonLichtie Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 (edited) No idea why everyone is being so negative about this, it'll give someone else a chance in the team, we'll bring in another defender on loan and by September we wont even remember who Colin Hamilton is. In all seriousness, this is dreadful news. Poor Hammy A season ender before it's started to a key part of the squad is such a shitter, surely we've paid our dues over the past year injury wise and more than made up for the season we finished 2nd in the Championship with an almost uninjured squad for the season?! Hammy is 8th in our all time appearance holders list with 371 appearances, well in reach of surpassing legends such as Bobby Linn, Stevie Flo, Ian Stirling and Ricky Little, he almost definitely would've surpassed them all and taken 4th place this season if it wasn't for this injury. An Arbroath FC club legend, it's a simple as that. Edited July 25 by SimonLichtie 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcintyre should’ve predicted this with his crystal ball and signed 8 more defenders just in case everyone at the club is shot down by a sniper 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicesterlichtie Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Like everybody else, gutted for Hammy to get another serious injury. Seems to be paying the price now for the small amount of times he ever picked up injuries in his early years. A proper no nonsense player, wears his heart on his sleeve and always gave 100%. Another stalwart of the club who may also be due a testimonial (I know he's had 2 separate spells), if he can return fully fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledLichtie Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 That is a real blow. He's been so reliable at both full back and centre back for so long. I thought he was going to be one of our main centre backs this season. Was he not also playing through a broken toe for a big chunk of last season? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36-0 Maroon Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Absolutely gutted for Hammy ️ The Red Lichtie Legend That Won The League At Stark’s Park Have faith Smokies He Will Be Back 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Hammy and Tam really provided a good deal of experience and leadership for young Wilkie and Bisland at the back I think now with the addition of Watson we have good experience and quality right down the core of the team though McAdams ToB Watson Slater Gold Reilly Gallagher Really is a good core. Obviously still with players to come. Think Scott Stewart with all of his experience and quality he’s shown in the Championship over his years with us is another real experienced player now as is Ryan Dow. Plenty of experience in the side which hopefully bodes well. Everyone will just have to keep their fingers and toes crossed that we will be luckier with injuries this season going forward from this point 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
