Ok now

Hilarious- camera hasn’t moved after 2 minutes. Just seeing the centre circle.

Yep. Dick has gone full 4-6-0 with 2 strikers on the bench. Baffling - but not surprising.

McKenna was hopeless as a centre forward. A waste of a good player.

This is very weird. Did anyone see this or anything like it? “This conduct can be summarised as using foul and abusive language towards Players and Management of both teams as well as aggressive conduct towards both Arbroath FC and Partick Thistle FC supporters. This behaviour caused concern and anxiety amongst other Arbroath FC Supporters who loyally attend all Home and Away Matches and who properly vocally support the Players and Management Team”

He’ll loan us Colak and Morelos. Dick doesn’t need strikers.

Our worries are over. Dick will be joining Rangers next week.

I was very upset that we let Henderson go. He is a talented younger defender and seemed to me a great start to renewing our ageing back 4. When he did play centre back, left back or defensive midfield he was excellent but Dick played him in the left wing which must have been annoying. I know he wanted full time football but if it was clear that he had a big future with us he may have stayed. Of late Dick has relied on long time stalwarts and loan signings with little or no thought of the future.

Tait and Allan. Bitsindou very promising as defensive midfielder.

Pointless statistic. We haven’t lost a league match when Isiaka has played. 6’ 8’ 20’ 24’ WDDW.

He did start Hilson. Hilson cannot play lone striker. Hilson is a trooper who gives 100% but not good enough at this level.

Agree, that “apart from up front” bit is carrying a lot of weight.

Please let’s have Bitsindou back tomorrow.

He’s a good left back with some potential. We’re a bit odd with our needs for a defensive loan player because we have such a settled back 4. Someone who can play defensive midfield or centre back/ fullback - like Bitsindou- is what works. Sticking Hancock on the left wing was criminal.

What happened?

1-0 Dunfermline. Chris Hamilton sent off after 10 minutes and Craig Wighton scores a 93rd minute winner.

Sliding doors moment. What if Sheerin hadn’t baled out in us to go to Aberdeen?

Bitsindou on a season long loan is a big plus. On the podcast Oakley sounded like he might be off in January but let’s hope not. He is excellent.

Yes agree.

The first on topic post.

Do Arbroath need 3 points? [emoji23] Don’t worry if we’re 1-0 up with 20 minutes to go. Dick will make some bizarre substitutions and you’ll definitely get something.

I hope Deri doesn’t read these threads but just in case he does, here goes. It’s not your fault you’re not Bobby Linn. It’s obvious you try your best every time you come on as a sub. I loved how you skinned their defender on the halfway line and got him booked and you managed a shot on target - just a shame you didn’t catch it right.

Be careful what you wish for. Dick always made bad substitutions and he always will but who is “our saviour” ?
