AFC360PUNK1320 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Some attendances at both those games, i remember the trouble at the home game at the harbour end where both sets of fans stood with a tiny segregation area and it was so obvious trouble was away to erupt, at the away game it had to be one of the biggest away supports travelling outwith Angus especially for a midweek game and on the way back to the buses when the trouble started some East Fife fans picked on the wrong Red Lichtie who was an ex-boxer and he laid 4 of them out in the middle of the road just outside Bayview lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 Near 4000 fans at an Arbroath vs East Fife fixture. Gutted I am too young to have experienced games like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoseMarooniho Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Real fond memories of the replay. We travelled in numbers and played really well. At times during McGrain’s first few months in charge we were very good indeed, Paul Tosh was often unplayable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kebab Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Ray Charles!!!What a brilliant keeper he was but I suppose he had to be for a man playing in that position and saddled with the name he had!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifer67 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Pretty sure East Fife manager Gavin Murray got sacked after that game. At that time East Fife fans would have thanked Arbroath for getting Gavin out the door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beastie Russell Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I was there that night, used to get a good whack of Raith fans through to Bayview, for midweek games or when Raith were away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFC360PUNK1320 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 OOH-AHH WATTIE BOYD, I SAID A OOH-AHH WATTIE BOYD, great team with great charachter's in Danny McGrain's teams and always had great cup runs and also great attendances. He handed out the trophies at the Arbroath Harp's 25th anniversary celebration dinner with his wife at the Cliffburn Hotel and he was a absolute gentleman and his wife loved Arbroath as a town. In the East Fife games i take it the magnificent Charlie Adam snr was either suspended or injured as he certainly played in the Rangers game and took the p#ss out of Mark Hateley, always remember all the Red Lichtie fans singing to Hateley who was raging "Hateley's got a bald patch, Hateley's got a bald patch a na na na, a na na na" lol 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lichtie78 Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 Played mostly on the wing for Alloa I think, also still 18. Dunfermline fans rate him highly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 17 games for Alloa last season from end of January onwards. 1 goal. What a signing. He played out wide. He also had a good run in Dunfermlines first team. He was very good at Alloa. And aye it is a very good signing, Scotland under 19 international 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtiekev Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Getting Martin back would be tremendous, would that be the end of McCord? Seems the Dunfermline fans are disappointed he is away and would of liked to seen him get a chance, Hester on loan to January now no doubt, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 Highly doubt Hester will go out on loan. That would mean we are down to one back up striker until Doris is back, which is exactly what DC has been on about avoiding by getting another striker in. Also the chance Smith will be used on the wing as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
