  1. That’s the lucky pants, jeans, socks, t shirt, sweatshirt, boots, scarf and hat all on or ready to go. Cmon Airdrie
  2. On train heading through - may as well make use of the postponement to visit a couple of boozers in the Capital. Every cloud and all that!
  3. it’s a trophy we have a chance of winning. Would love to take youngest daughter to a final and and see a trophy lifted. We auld guys don’t realise how good we had it, 3 Scottish Cup Finals, Spring Cup, multiple Challenge Cups, 2 promotions, Europe. I want the youngsters to experience that, so take it serious and try to win everything. On another note eldest daughter’s been disowned as she asked what Airdrie top to get her partner. ‘The one with the red triangle?’ , I kid you not.
  4. My biggest take on that is that McCabe is learning. Last year at this time we went a man down against Edinburgh City and he went 5 up top. Going by the reactions of Todorov and Hancock at the final whistle they are buying into what’s happening and there’s a great team ethic in the place. Fans are on board also. Whilst we were lucky esp to be two up entirely due to Invernes mistakes we could have went in at the break 3 or 4 up while not playing particularly well. Inverness kept a close eye on McMaster in 1st half which I think hampered our passing game. Pleased for McGregor who I thinks getting a rough deal on here, there’s a player there and typical of wingers he’ll fade in and out of games. His run in the 2nd half deserved a goal. As said by others McMaster and Aiken were excellent esp once Frizzell went off. That was as nervous I’ve been at a game for a long while - was rattling for the 2nd half. We’ll be nobodies pushovers this year.
  5. Can’t remember the last time I seen us beat thistle. That was a great performance and the best bit is there’s tons of room for improvement. Gallagher was frustrating with his miss and ignoring the pass in the first half but overall his work rate is brilliant and his header was a peach. Watson’s cross though? Was class. McMaster man of the match for me today. The passing out from the back is heart attack stuff but when it’s done well it’s great to watch. They couldn’t get near the ball for long spells in the 2nd half. Roll on next week.
  6. Been keeping quiet the last few weeks so not to jinx anything or tempt fate. I’m a superstitious old git. Anyway not sure if anyone else has said but I’m more confident in the board now than I was originally. The way they quietly go about the business (tell us eff all), at least they’re not dishing out the patronising claptrap that some do. They have thought out the box for the last two manager appointments. I for one favoured the cautious/ steady hand approach (Duffy) at the time but what do I know? We’ve seen how that panned out for Dumbarton and Clyde. Murray eventually provided a swashbuckling helter skelter of a team that galvanised and reenergised the fans. I also was surprised by the appointment of Rhys and Calum but Murrayball was replaced with energetic enthralling football that we haven’t seen since Archibalds Spanish Armada. I’m sure if Frizzell hadn’t been injured for the 6 weeks or so and we hadn’t had the bad spell after the Challenge Cup defeat the league title wouldn’t have been so clear cut for Dunfermline. That’s been part of the fun though. Strengthen the midfield (I think it’s a bit lightweight for the championship), a full back and centre half and we’re sorted for next season. Finally, that was brilliant yesterday. To see the joy on my daughters face when it finished makes the last ten years of misery worthwhile.
  7. Brilliant news, Gal League 1 POY…….Well done Gal, well deserved.
  8. It was Sean that I was referring to. There was someone on here thought he was the new Beckenbauer.
  9. Against my better judgement heading through to EEP on Saturday. I’d grab a draw and run if we could but can’t see us getting anything. Saturday was our chance to get back in the race and we blew it. Where’s the best place for parking near the stadium?
  10. Thought it was harsh at the time but watching the highlights the ref got that one spot on.
  11. I think you’ve hit the nail on the head . Its not necessarly the defence it’s the midfield leaves them woefully exposed. McMaster attempted 3-4 half hearted sliding tackles that he had no chance of success with - token efforts. We lost almost every 50/50 in the middle too. Gear too lightweight in the middle of the park.
  12. Couldn’t tell for certain where I was. I actually thought he headed it initially.
  13. That was murder. Really naive to think you can play 3 (sometimes more) up front when you’re down to 10 men. 2 at the back in the 3nd half too. Justin Devenny isn’t a full back. Add to that too many players having a bad day at the same time. Fordyce was terrible today. Here’s hoping he learns from that. Stupid sending off too. Would’ve been better letting the goal in.
