WT Figo Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Hearts game Thursday 30th July That is not the best news we have had this week. Not easy for fans to get through to Edinburgh after a working day let alone the players who have full time jobs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elgin away and Annan away midweek last year was it not? Edinburghs pretty central atleast. Sure it won't be a problem. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If most finish work at 5 it's going to be a nightmare to get to the capital from Arbroath. Dundee rush hour traffic is an absolute pain in the arse to start 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 Anyone know why Mark Whatley was not even on the bench? Not seen any suggestions that he is injured and he was at training on Saturday.he's on holiday I think 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 (edited) Who does jamie Clarke play for? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamie_Clarke_(footballer,_born_1982) 2002–2004 Mansfield Town 33 (1) 2004–2006 Rochdale 63 (1) 2006–2007 Boston United 51 (3) 2007–2010 Grimsby Town 74 (3) 2010 York City 7 (0) 2010–2011 Gainsborough Trinity 17 (0) 2011–2012 Guiseley 52 (1) Been at Broughty Athletic last season. This on their website from when he signed. 'Jamie who is a midfielder born in Sunderland, who has recently came back from Thailand after coaching for the national team for the past 2 years. He is also son of Dundee United physio Jeff Clarke' Watched him a few times because my mate was at them and he never really impressed, never got much time on the ball. Mate was always raving about him though. Looked good the other night anyway, I would be happy to see him sign. Can play centre half or central midfield. Heard from a few sources now that Montrose look like a shambles so far this pre season, heard from a few boys that know people who have trained with them and they're all saying the same thing. They better hurry up and get their arse in gear, not long until the season starts mate. ETA: should be a promising young ex Dundee striker playing tonight. I think.

SimonLichtie Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 From what I've seen of Clarke, I think 6 of his last 7 competitive games, I think he would certainly be able to play at our level and I was very pleased to hear he put in a good show on Tuesday. Hopefully he play tonight, shows the same again and we snap him up. A very experienced, but not ancient, ex professional of 10 + years who can comfortably play in two of our needed positions sounds good on paper, and I'd say is backed up in the performances I saw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokie_Bacon_crisps Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Gayfield wasn't the same without you on Tuesday SL - Glad to see you back tonight The whole team played well on Tuesday, but I was left impressed by how they seemed to have an understanding with one another, when you consider only Linn, Stewart, Little and Johnstone started from last season it was very encouraging. Hay and Clarke looked very composed on the ball and both were looking to come out with the ball to set up an attack and I'm sure it was one of these counters by Hay that led to Hester's goal. Gold and Reid both looked hungry to win possession back. Fleming to be honest had little to do. I thought Stewart was a contender for man of the match. It certainly leaves TL a nice headache as Whatley still has to come in and also Wilson as well. The difference in height was quite noticeable - Fleming is a giant, Hay, Munro, Stewart, Clarke and Coult all must be well over 6 foot. Maybe see more of a traditional pre-season friendly tonight with lots of substitutes in the second 45. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Beat Exeter 1-0, Hester again, think he's got potential Know it's early but I think Munro and Hay look quality, Stewart has come on leaps and bounds aswell, great again tonight Think the Mo are after Clarke aswell so I would like to see us sign him up 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
