lichtie23 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Unless I'm missing someone, we've only got 13 signed? Little, Dunlop, Stoney, Hamilton, Whatley, Gold, McCord, Malin, Kader, Linn, Hester, Doris, Prunty Maybe he counting Douglas 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonLichtie Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Josh Skelly - as said previously. Last season he was probably one of our most technically gifted players, but wasn't able to use his ability apart from set pieces. Struggled with the pace of the game and the physical side, bullied almost every week unfortunately. Stonie - Good to hear. A solid backup at this level and an all round good guy So for next year we have.... Defenders: Ricky Little Michael Dunlop Colin Hamilton Craig Johnstone Midfielders: Omar Kader Mark Whatley (RB?) Gavin Malin David Gold Ross McCord Bobby Linn Strikers: Bryan Prunty Steven Doris Kane Hester The statement says 14 - with 7 signings and 7 re-signings but I'm not sure who I'm missing that we've kept from last years squad? I think the positions to fill now are GK, back GK, DR, DC, SC and a defensive minded MC to break up the play. To have 13 signed players at this stage, with half a dozen of them absolute top level League 2 players is fantastic. If we do get a good keeper and another good DR/ DC in we will be looking very, very good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Momosupermo Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Few great signings for Arbroath this season, Pity the same can't be said about ourselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waspie Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Hamilton was superb with us and has been playing in the championship the last 2 year. A real solid signing, great at left back and good at centre half. Chuffed, if true. Just the 1 season in the Championship and it was a bit of a struggle for him. Did better after new year when Jack Ross came in, narrowed the pitch and encouraged Hammy to concentrate on the basics. Good luck to him, always gave 100% even when things weren't going too well for him. . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to him, always gave 100% even when things weren't going too well for him. . Alloa won 4 games from 36, safe to say the team as a whole struggled which won't have helped individual players, to be fair. One of our best players in our team in the 2 seasons he was with us in League 1. Believe he done very well at Brechin before his move to Alloa too, year in the Championship playing a lot of games has hopefully helped him. Really looking forward to seeing him back in the Maroon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KierenAAFC Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 If DC has signed Hamilton as well then he can sign pretty much any part time player he wants!Steady on mate. It's Colin Hamilton. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilky1878 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Hamilton coming in and Stoney staying too. Superb stuff. Ricky Little Michael Dunlop Colin Hamilton Craig Johnstone Bobby Linn Ryan McCord Omar Kader Mark Whatley David Gold Gavin Malin Bryan Prunty Steven Doris Kane Hester Lavvv it. Says we have 14... Who am I forgetting? That's some squad going here for league 2. I disagree with other Alloa fans and think Hamilton will prove to be a great signing at this level, McCord though unfit will walk this league aswell and Kader has pace and with Forfar in the playoffs vs us played really well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scared to beat his man, lightweight but has the odd wonder game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon EF Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 The good thing about re-signing Hamilton is that he already knows how to play 'the Arbroath way'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blooby321 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Craig Wilson signed the same time as linn go back through the Arbroath fc official Facebook page. Signed for a year but somehow don't think he will be a starter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe he done very well at Brechin before his move to Alloa too, year in the Championship playing a lot of games has hopefully helped him. Really looking forward to seeing him back in the Maroon. The team certainly struggled, but individually there were very few who looked totally out of their depth. Hamilton pre Christmas did. Worked hard and did better as the season progressed. Ultimately not a Championship player. I reckon he'd be a better CB where his limitations on the ball wouldn't be an issue. Fine for LB in League 2 anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
