1320Lichtie Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Buzzing off Doris like, guys done so well in all the games v Prem teams. Backing into boys, running in behind, holding it up, taking it out the air, winning it in the air... night and day from last season. What a man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SotesBornalichtie Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Another good game against a Premier league side. Doris definitely mom with Hutton close behind. Thought Henry looked OK at full back but McCord a yard off the pace but will probably get more time on the ball in the league. Agree with earlier post re Skelly, he hasn't impressed so far in these pre-league games. Good size crowd , hope we get the same numbers or more for league games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Considering the crowds in the League Cup games it's ok. Wouldn't say it was good though below our average league crowds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokerson Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Solid performance against a decent prem outfit, Think our pre season has been challenging but really good, should be set up well for next week now. Kader and Doris very impressive yesterday 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlichtie Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 It's been surprising how well we've done, playing with few dedicated defenders. Yesterday only Ricky and ToB were in position. Even the midfield had no really defensive minded players. It makes for a watchable style. Gav seemed to be enjoying it second half. I hope it works out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never got a lot of time but very clever, him and McCord together was great to watch at times. Yule was great at centre half too by the way. Tough test for him there up against Curran/Schalk/Mikkelsen but cruised through it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for a game that the manager was using as a fitness game for the players, the travelling distance for away fans and it being the holiday time of year I think 702 was a good crowd. Looking forward to next Saturday to see how we do against a team that finished mid table last season. If we can cary on playing as well as we have done in these pre-season games we could cause a few surprises and make the play-offs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stan3600 Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 Really looking forward to attending my first game at Gayfield for a year on Saturday. It's looking really promising after pre season.

1320Lichtie Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Season ticket sales up by over 20% not bad.Gate prices 14 and 8 this season 17 for parent child gate. Anyone know the actual figure?My ticket number is 454 and I bought mine on the 6th July so imagine there'll have been a good few since then. The lady at the time told me they were heading towards record sales but no idea what we usually sell? Promising it's up 20% though hopefully see a wee boost in crowds this season. Think all the work Bri Cargill's putting in really helps, see a lot of kids in Arbroath tops kicking about the town now. A young lad even congratulated me for wearing Arbroath shorts at the saltire the other week. [emoji1] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree. I think Brian has been a real inspiration and his efforts are really paying off. I hope people appreciate what he does for the club. i too have been pleased with the amount of kids I have seen in and around the town in Arbroath shirts this summer. Can't remember seeing so many before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Courier saying we're wanting Scott Martin on loan from Hibs. Very good player but does DC kehn we only have 4 defenders????Yule has shown he can play there and we know Whatley can be good at full back too but surely needing to use a loan on a defender. Fully expect we will mind you but still. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
