Wullie McNaught Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 We've played them before in the cup. I was up at the second replay in Arbroath, pretty sure wee bingo scored a peach in a 3-0 win ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSDR 88 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I’m absolutely buzzing for Peterhead away. Ever since the Elgin trip a few years back in the Scottish Cup, I’ve wanted a similar day out. Superb. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Quick bus up the road and a cracking social club. Braw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 The 1975 game was the season before I started going regularly so I wasn't that one though I do have one of the programmes which incidentally were printed in Peterhead jail.. I was at all 3 of the 80's games though. The 2-2 draw at SP, the 3-3 draw at Recreation Park and the 2nd replay at Arbroath too. I recall Frank Conner saying he had to talk Hamish McAlpine out of retirement as the keeper felt his dodgy eyesight was the reason we nearly lost the 1st replay, I though Herd was more culpable myself as he was a bit reckless that night. The 2nd replay at Arbroath was the coldest I have ever felt at a football game, it was bloody freezing. The league is the most important thing but it'd be good to get past P'heid and bag a decent 4th round draw. If we were assured of a decent tie and possibly TV money (Celtic or Sevco at SP??) we could possibly look to strengthen in the next transfer window. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Listening to Smith's interview on the website. I like how he doesn't do any prolonged answers. The opposite of Yogi: "So what was the game plan today..." "To win." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Barry Smith fucking hated interviews. He explicitly said he could do without them at Dens. Don't expect anything from them. He feels completely out of his element doing them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Hughes could easily spend about 10 to 15 minutes on interviews, but did f**k all in the dugout. He got loads of praise after we got skelped by St Mirren for his honesty, despite spending all of the first half in his seat without making any changes. Smith comes across as a likeable character who is quite blunt in interviews. It's understandable really. Fortunately, we've got the likes of Easton and Robbo who are a bit more "media friendly". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Matthews is wasted out at right midfield. Can we not move him into centre midfield and try Heron out there? They both played in the middle yesterday? Barr and Vaughan were our wide players as they have been almost every game this season..... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 IIRC he wrote a column for the Telle, you would think he knows how this works. He took on a journalist role after his Aldershot job and because there was no available role at Dens. He's never been the type comfortable with a camera on front of his face. When he was working for the Tele it was purely because he was one of Dundee's biggest ever legends rather than any journalistic talent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His interviews are to the point which is a quantum leap in respect of the pish that Hughes would come out with, Locke was like watching Loose Women. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardy Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 He’s quite right though. Just fucking win. Every fucking league match. Doesn’t matter how shite we’ve played. Win, and it’s on to to the next game. Fucking shite being here. Utter shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Smith comes across like he can’t be arsed with pre/post match interviews. Doesn’t help that some of the questions presented to him are in the ‘it’s pretty obvious what the answer will be’ category. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Smiths like Mcglynn. Honest pro with no ego or anything like that. Mcglynn was the most camera shy person ever. He was in the Sportscene studio after our cup win at Dundee and it was cringe worthy. But I'm fine with that. Tremendous work ethic and you need that in this league. I remember we got hammered in a game in Mcglynn gave one word answers with a face like a massive beetroot. He was fucking seething. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterhead at home if I remember correctly. It was a meaningless end of day game after we'd qualified for the playoffs, and we fielded a team with players who were at the end of their contract and youths. We got tanked 5-2 and Bobby Mann started celebrating in front of our fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIT THE CHANNEL Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) Has anyone travelled to Peterhead using public transport? Or perhaps any Rovers fans up that way could enlighten me... Google seems to be saying its a 2 hour bus from Aberdeen!? Surely there is an easier way!!?
