If we can stop goals going in that will be a great base for pushing to win the league. Take into account we are going to have injuries and suspensions so a decent squad is a necessity A blind man can see though that we need a striker, not a winger, a good old fashioned goal scorer, as we seem to be creating plenty of chances We need a striker and a winger imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyBear Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 This might be the most pathetic and embarrassing thing Accies have done for years. Players fly out on morning of game and flight delayed so kick off now 3.45 which means those on 7.30 ferry will miss end of game. Why not fly out yesterday FFS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Mcleod Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 I'm not 1 of those fans who are going to the game today but it's absolutely amateur level stuff from our club I feel bad for the fans that have paid the money to make the game today. Makes things even worse that they try and blame the airport it's always everyone's fault apart from theirs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Mcleod Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Good to see the players did manage to get the job done today and we are through to the next round of the cup draw will be made on Thursday at 1PM. Just a shame due to the clubs lack of preparation some fans had to miss a bit of the game after spending good money to make it today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

accies1874 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 In my bed after being up for 20 hours but just need to say that that was one of the best and most surreal days of supporting the club. Seeing folk in Accies tops in Glasgow Airport was weird enough, but doing a red and white takeover of a flight was something I thought I'd never see. The shenanigans with the players' flight was bonkers and obviously incredibly shite for everyone on the Vaults bus, especially given it was only Freddie who managed to see the third goal (after taking the fans' applause about three times). It was a shame that it put a dampener on a great day as the atmosphere in the ground and especially the pub were class. It genuinely felt like another cup final rather than a run-of-the-mill cup round against some no-marks. We've seen this year how important cups can be to fans and I can only imagine that the players have enjoyed the experiences too - although maybe not the flight home. Also out to @cdhafc1874 who provided world class transport advice on the way back to Scotland. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accies1 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Just home from the trip (on the vaults bus). It was a long day but the build up to the match was excellent, one of the best. I'd like to think the fans impacted by the clubs amateur decision making will at least get an apology and the club recognise they were at fault but I doubt it. I doubt they'll read this but the staff in The Railway Arms in Coleraine were outstanding so kudos to them too. I'm away to bed and plan on spending tomorrow questioning my life choice. Hope everyone had a great time and gets home safe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not fly out yesterday FFS I was one of those on The HAFSWO Bus who had to leave early.Luckily enough,I moved at a snail's pace leaving the ground,so managed to see the third goal along with Freddy and Latimer. Everyone else was on the bus and sadly missed the third goal;what a completely avoidable shambles.

Seems a bit odd to hold one when everything is going reasonably well (Coleraine debacle aside), maybe just a sign of Serif looking to keep up the fan engagement. Hope to make it myself and would be interested to raise the query to them as to why the club has decided to run the two Twitter accounts and FB accounts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mediocre central midfielder all round, never really excelled at anything. We played him at full back mostly, which he's definitely not great at. We had him on trial during preseason and it didn't look like he'd improved much at all. unfortunately I would think championship is a level above what he's capable of. Will always remember the absolute banger he scored against Dundee though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton have a good team this year and are strong in centre mid. Would love Scott Martin and you’re lucky to have him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
