Mon_Eh_Bairns2018 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Currently at the same point in my football manager save with Falkirk as we are in real life. Dowds has just returned from loan, and against dumbarton he has just scored a hat-trick for me!!! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge of allan bairn Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Just caught up on the highlights and interviews from Dumbarton game yesterday. Firstly on Dowds. Massive credit to him for going away to arbroath working on his match fitness and game and looking very good. I saw him pre season against stirling University and he looked unfit, however it was preseason. I would still have had him over guys like wilson et Al as his attitude and skill level was better so once he regained fitness would have been a far better option. as for the interview I didn't see it as negative as some, I thought he came across positively and professionally. I hope he wants to stay, and stays and does a great job. 3 goals and 2 assists shows the right message. as for the game, really refreshing to hear rennie emphasise again the faster attacking play he wants and to see it in evidence yesterday. I'm with andreas kelevra on this as we've seen far too much Largs, sideways slow moving possession based football over the past 5 years. it's awful to watch and predictable. yesterday was refreshing. defensively was surprised at how many good chances Dumbarton created and didn't put away. if we can get Dixon back in there and 1 or 2 others that would help. with Holt gone, a new manager with early days but more attack minded thinking, dowds back firing and maybe 1 or 2 others coming, new board, hopefully fans getting back, starting to feel a bit optimistic for the first time in years. make the play offs and who knows? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbroath have a +18 goal difference and, based on the games I’ve watched, a lot of that is due to Nouble tormenting centre halfs and dragging them all over the pitch. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDust Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 15 hours ago, Andreas Kelevra said: Stand by it The change in style of play - getting the ball forward quicker, getting on the front foot, prioritise going forward over possession mattered a lot more than Dowds. As if we played the way we have all season he’d have had 1 or 2 chances at best. Created one and scored 3, ok he made no difference I doubt we would've scored 6 without him tbh, Dumbarton were poor and the real test is against teams who won't be trying to escape the trap door. Dowds has comeback with pace and more hunger, that made a huge difference to us yesterday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m the same- initially I thought oh no looking at the squad but we’re sitting 15 points clear in January only losing 1 game. I’ve only brought in Finlay Pollock and Max McMillan on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugby Is Terrible Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Someone I trust implicitly at the club has informed us that we have 100% put in a bid for Goodwillie which has been rejected. The person in question is against the signing but the overriding feeling is the board are unwilling to meddle in such decisions. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbroath averaging about 1500 with 1100 season ticket holders. Middle of the road for a championship club Love how we’re getting a slagging all of a sudden cause Dowds was treated well here. Unreal. Billy big time attitude won’t get you far. That attitude and pressure on everyone who’s went into the club and the people running the club probably hasn’t helped last few year Yes, you had top 4 form, but you were neither 3 points clear in the league or top 4. You were 7th, I don’t know why you are quoting me wrt everything else you were banging on about. I think you had one or two giving it “we will take him this window or in the summer” Billy big Baws stuff. The one thing that is certain is you have reached the top of the Championship with loans being key. Nouble and Dowds now gone. Even with Hamilton, you will not sustain pre- yesterday form. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blabbing about these dealings only puts the backs up of the clubs FFC is negotiating with. It is not the way to do business and loses trust and respect.

It's still a shocking goal return. Any striker worth their salt should be getting 15 to 20 at champ level pretty comfortably. He looks like one of those guys whose not entirely sure what he's going to do with the ball never mind the defender. His record above the Isthmian premier is very poor. Championship bottom of the top flight seems about his level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
18BAIRN76 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I repeat, I find it hard to put into words how embarrassing I find it that the Goodwillie stuff appears to have an element of truth to it. The fact he is even being considered by those at the club is an absolute fucking riddy. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
