I knew he was too young and healthy to be going into coaching, and so it proved. He was playing as a trialist for Arbroath the other week and Dick Campbell seemed pretty keen on signing him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marten Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 Our last PSF last night was a good 2-1 win against a young, but talented, Dundee side. But I can't wait for Saturday. After all that time of talking about the new structure and the road it took us to get here, finally the football can do the talking with the Midlands League kicking off. The inaugural fixtures are: Saturday 17th July: Arbroath Victoria – East Craigie Broughty Athletic – Dundee St James Carnoustie Panmure – Forfar United Coupar Angus – Letham Dundee Violet – Brechin Victoria Forfar West End – Kirriemuir Thistle Lochee United – Blairgowrie Scone Thistle – Lochee Harp Tayport – Dundee North End Downfield - idle 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, maximum is 250 with the current covid rules so if the game is expected to be busy it's best to arrive early (yesterday we got very close to that 250 by the looks of it). However, I don't expect that to be an issue any of the games on Saturday. From Monday the maximum changes to 1,000 anyway so this only applies to Saturday's games. Edit: I should add that the 250 maximum only applies to grounds in Dundee as we're currently level 2. The grounds in Angus, Perth & Kinross and Fife have a 500 maximum under level 1 restrictions currently.

Unfortunately as I'm just out of hospital and will be yo-yoing between home and hospital for the foreseeable future I'll need to make do with phone updates. Hard to see past East Craigie, Broughty, Violet, Lochee Utd, Scone and Tayport. I know nothing about Letham but if they don't win on Saturday, I can see them finishing bottom. Similarly, a chance for Coupar Angus to prove the naysayers wrong and get off to a flyer. FWE v Kirrie could be a close one. Score draw for me. The interesting one for me is Carnoustie v Forfar Utd. Anyone watching our league last season would surely agree that Forfar Utd were the most improved team towards the end and I think they will give Carnoustie a run for their money this weekend.

Your predictions sound reasonable, so I'd agree with them. Good luck with whatever you're going through and I hope you'll get better soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope to see you there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckets Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 English YouTuber who does videos on Scottish non-league football did a Dundee groundhopping video. Visits Carnoustie Panmure and Lochee United. He also tried visit Lochee Harp but couldn't find the ground, don't know if anyone can give him a message and help him with where the new ground is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jute Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Going to be in Dundee this weekend so will be heading along to one of the midland league games. Any of the teams issue a programme? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Again, I know it's only a friendly, but there's BoD drawing with Fraserburgh last night (who are the 2nd best team in the HL). The play off games featuring them and the winners of the ML will be intriguing. It's a joke on BoD's part that they refused to join the HL for so long. They could be in League Two by now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All credit to the guy for pronouncing Lochee correctly. Normally, English people say LOCK ee. He was actually standing outside Harp's new ground but there's no signage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video was excellent but the gentleman ( Bob ) who you interviewed at Thomson Park was not known to anyone at the club, his lack of knowledge regarding what league we would be playing in was a wee bit embarrassing. Just a pity you did'nt contact the club in advance but overall, well done and thanks for the exposure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I follow his YouTube channel for his videos on non league Scottish football which are usually quite good. He's covered most of the Highland and Lowland League clubs and a good amount in tier 6 and below as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 I see Lochee Utd have brought Ewan Murray in on loan from us. Looking forward to hearing how he gets on, as he's clearly one our Academy has high hopes for. We got special dispensation to let him play in friendlies for us in last season's pre-season as a 15 year old, and he scored against Peterhead in one game. Trialled with Kelty before yourselves, clearly has the talent but lacking on the build just now, given he's just 16. Hopefully should handle himself well with the Chee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen him play for us in 2 friendlies and he left a great impression, clearly a talented youngster and this experience should be great for him. He seems a good addition to the squad. If we do manage to get promoted this season you'd imagine that we're in a good place to get some youngsters from yourselves & United on loan to get experience in the Highland League. If that were to happen, maybe Ewan Murray could stay for a second season and grow with the club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
