relichtie Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 see Everton are playing Dundee with the intention of a couple of Scottish games, we should surely try and get a friendly with them, would attract a decent crowd I thinkBoth ourselves and Everton were formed in 1878 and I believe played a friendly at Gayfield in 1902 against them. It was played as 2 halves of 35 mins and resulted in a 3-1 home win. Would be a real coup for us to host them now given the gulf between the club's but would love to see it happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokie_Bacon_crisps Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I have a message from Karen who is the star in our club shop; There was a clean up the kit room at Gayfield which a lot of old random kit was donated to Malawi but there are 3 boxes which contain almost full kits which have been put together which would be ideal for a team who play in the juniors or in a pub league, etc, etc. These are old Arbroath Shirts, so they have the Arbroath Logo, Shirt Sponsors, Numbers etc and are all one size (40 if I recall) Box 1 - Short Sleeved Maroon Arbroath tops with numbers from 2 to 17 Box 2 - Long Sleeved Maroon Arbroath tops with numbers from 2 to 17 - However Shirt 5 has a different sponsor to the rest of the shirts. Box 3 - Short Sleeved Yellow Arbroath tops with numbers 2 to 20, with 17 pairs of navy socks, and 16 pairs of various sizes of navy shorts - sm, lg etc. Each Box is for sale with the prices starting around £50 but Karen is willing to listen to offers. I’m posting on here for Karen as I know there are a few people who play football and it’s not something normally people who come into the club shop would buy! Again ideal for a club who plays in Arbroath or have an Arbroath link. If you are interested in buying one of the boxes, please email Karen at merchandise@arbroathfc.co.uk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 Kane Hester from the vics is on trial with us, and I've been told an English player is on trial too, can't think who this could be though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 (edited) Kane Hester from the vics is on trial with us, and I've been told an English player is on trial too, can't think who this could be though.His names Jamie Clarke. Ex Grimsby/Rotherham. Was at the fed second half of last season. 31 years old. Don't think he will get signed. Seriously doubt Hester will get a contract, lightning quick but overall not good enough for a step up to the seniors IMO. Happy with Munro. Another centre half added.

With Coult and Grehan we'll need some pace too. Considering we spent most of last season with one signed centre back, to have 3 at this stage is great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 The lad hester has signed for you boys Suppose that'll throw the young lad Lee Cameron's deal out then, had heard we had enquired about him from someone in work. Good opportunity for him. He's from the Mo though is he not? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I can 100 percent confirm that he is not signed and just on trial just now Mo83 speaking shite 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek1234 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Andy Munro has signed. Big, strong, dominant, physical centre half. Great in the air but can also play a bit. Chips in with a fair few goals too. Should be a great signing for Arbroath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can he play at full back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can yes, and did on a few occasions for Musselburgh last season. But far more comfortable at centre back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Hard to drop Ricky based on his end of season efforts last term. I thought he was absolutely terrific at times. Certainly looks more comfortable at centre half than right back 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
