    After our high of winning at Tannadice for the first time in 1995, and Queens Park's 6-0 demolition of Arbroath, both sets of supporters will be brought back down to earth again with another 1-1 draw that's going to be even worse than the last hundred 1-1 draws.

    1995 was the last we won up there.

    Here, how good was the build up for Gabby's goal?, that was just pure filth!!! looking forward to watching it back. Massive and unexpected 3 points tonight, every player was superb, hoping Mason's injury isn't too serious, that's the only negative but sets up the game against Queens Park on Saturday nicely. Last time Airdrie won away to Dundee United was the year before I was born so a first in my lifetime. This league is absolutely bonkers, losing 4-0 to Arbroath and winning 2-0 at Tannadice. That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever!! It's going to be a roller coaster that's the only guarantee!!

    Any United fans know if they'll be a stream for the game tonight?

    I think the main points that we've learned from the game are that; Aaron Lyall needs to start, I thought he was excellent when he came on. McCabe is good at centre back but only when Dycey is playing next to him. Watson is far better as a right back and is a complete bombscare at centre back. Lewis McGregor is a better player playing his new role in a front two. If Dycey is out for a longer period of time I'd probably look to switching Hancock to centre half to play along side McCabe, I don't think Watson and McCabe work playing there together. I'd put Ballantyne at left back and Watson at right back. I agree with most of the posts above, I don't think we played badly at all but you can't be gifting teams 3 goals, not just at this level but at any level. On a positive note there's only one more game left vs Ayr and only one more binfire of a match thread left this season.

    That's the Airdrie end sold out now!

    Having worked in customer service for years nothing about the general public amazes me so I'm not surprised to read about folk moaning about having to move 10 seats along or not being able to park in their usual spot etc. As for the complaints about 'glory hunters', we should be encouraging more folk to come to the games, not drive them away, I took my friend who's a Rangers fan to the Inverness game last month and he was impressed with Airdrie, even more so that he's coming along to hospitality with me to the Arbroath game next month. I've never seen Airdrie play Hearts at home before so I'm excited and really looking forward to the occasion, hopefully a cracking support and atmosphere. I've seen Airdrie win the challenge Cup twice but it would be amazing for the younger fans to see Airdrie win a trophy and that would be something they would remember forever, and hopefully have them keep coming back. I'd honestly take the comments on FB or other forms of social media with a pinch of salt, folk just like a moan about anything.

    Think POTY and YPOTY are very difficult to call this year, for POTY I'm crossed between McCabe and Telfer. For YPOTY if Megwa is eligible for the vote I'd vote for him despite being back at Hibs or for Mason Hancock. I don't think I would be disappointed seeing anyone win it as there's been loads of stand outs and consistent performers this season, Janny, Dycey, Rae and Aiken, you could make a case for all of them.

    Anyone want tonight's lottery numbers?

    Delighted with that draw, hard game but definitely winnable. Noticed Hearts are playing St Johnstone on 7th February so seems likely that the game will either be played on a Saturday or Sunday and I'd imagine it will be televised. If Hibs can give us Megwa on a one game emergency loan that would be great too.

    This is the best Airdrie team I've seen in my lifetime supporting Airdrie. I'd argue that this team are better than the one we had where we finished 5th in the championship in 2005 and that Rhys McCabe is the best Airdrie manager since the 2002 era. We can all talk about what we want in the draw etc but we completely played a team off the park in a higher division, who's manager previously managed the national team. What a difference in how everyone was feeling on the 30th December at half time during the Queens Park game to just now!!

    That's a great signing for Kelty . He was very good when he was on loan with us a couple of seasons ago. He wasn't tested too much defensively as we went on a 20 odd game unbeaten run but he definitely played a part in that. It'll be interesting to see how he gets on and I hope he does well.

    Wouldn't surprise me if McStravick is attracting interest from other teams. His two best games were his debut away to Dundee United and away to Thistle. He stood out in both of those games and for being 18 at the time he didn't look out of place against two of the best teams in the league. He's a very talented player and I'm sure he'll go on to have a decent career. I'm not sure how long a contract he's on with us but assuming it's a multi year deal, a team would need to offer a decent amount for him, possibly more than the Devenny transfer. Also with Megwa doing as well as he did with us, we'll be one of the best teams to loan players out to as we have a manager who gives youth a chance and has a proven track record now for developing young players.

    I know this has probably been mentioned already but it really winds me up when they say 'he/she is 100% faithful'. Like how do you know? anyone can be a traitor. Andrew and Charlotte are the worst for it this year. They are completely taken in by Paul.
  16. David Fernández
    'Get us back to where we belong'. When a supporter of a team thinks they should be in a higher division than they currently are. I cringe so much when fans say this, you are where you are on merit.

    Mason Hancock is quickly becoming my favourite player this season, would love to see him tied down on a longer term contract. Tremendous performance along with the rest of the team. Some difference a week makes eh?

    I seen on Instagram that Flynn Duffy has joined consilium. Don't know too much about him but according to transfermarkt he can play both left-back and right back. He doesn't look like he can break into the Dundee United team as he's only played once for them this season but he fits the profile of a player that we would be interested in.
  19. David Fernández
    Was surprised at how comfortable the game was, expected it to be a lot tighter but we controlled and dominated pretty much the whole game. Moved the ball a lot better and hopefully a performance like that can start to kick us on. Thought Mason Hancock was MOTM today but I can't really fault anyone at all. Great start to 2024 and I did say on here despite going on a bit of a bad run, all it takes is a couple of wins to climb right up the table. Happy New Year diamonds!!!

    Damn it, I was so close but I've never been so glad to be wrong!!! What a win, absolutely massive to cap off a brilliant 2023!!

    Queens Park and Airdrie to draw 1-1 for the hundredth time in recent years in a game of low quality, few chances and both teams gifting eachother goals from trying to play it out from the back.
  22. David Fernández
    Must've been either a fan or one of the ball boys!

    That game today would've been a BBC Scotland Friday night classic. I thought we were pretty decent defensively, dealt well with all of Morton's long throws and set pieces. Unfortunately we still have our issues in the final 3rd where we could've been playing up until the new year and still not scored, January can't come quick enough. The best part of the game was Lewis Strapp getting his towel knicked for when he was drying the ball before his long throws.

    Remember the Dumbarton 0-1 Airdrie game in lockdown when we kept the ball in the corner flag for the last 8 minutes to waste time? Somehow I think this game is worse than that one.
  25. David Fernández
    Yeah I mentioned him in the Airdrie thread earlier on, I think that's a very good signing for Arbroath, decent bit of business, even when he was briefly on loan at us I thought he looked decent. Edinburgh were decent last year especially against us!!
