Are Arbroath without nouble much better than they've been the last two seasons? Is it not just the same players in the majority?

Still a fair few of their players that would walk into our team, again though that's not much of a brag.

Wighton, Hamilton x2, O'Brien, Low, Henderson, Mckenna.

watched the interview and wasn't as blown away as some others with it, however I think his experience and liklihood of not accepting less than 100% also puts me in the "guarded optimist" group.

I tell you what though I would love to have been a fly on the wall when mcglynn and Watson had that conversation in the stadium this week. guarantee he'll have set exactly how poor the remainder of the majority of the long term contractors have been....

Both teams would f**k Falkirk so hard the club wouldn’t be walking right for about 2 years.

Granted but still a poor spectacle

Yip, the lads argument that because Falkirk are pish then last nights match was a great spectacle is somewhat tainted.

Not really. It was a dig at the quality which from a Falkirk fan is highly ironic.

No it was simply an honest observation.

The game was awful, you don’t have to be a season ticket holder at Real Madrid to recognise that.

Game was awful, quality was awful, first leg in front of that crowd was a bit of a joke. When you see the Scottish footy twitter lads say English football is overhyped, watch any of their playoffs (from the top 5 tiers) and they’re much better than that.  
 

At the same time, both teams would’ve absolutely shagged us rotten with this season’s team. Bit like Raith did with 10 men.

Tbf, I don’t think the lack of quality is just in the Championship and League One. Watched the first half of Champions Celtic vs 5th placed Motherwell and it was embarrassing- Motherwell are absolutely rotten. A terrible spectacle to watch.

100% it should be up there IMO. I want it ripped up and grass reinstated personally

There is the hybrid artificial / natural grass surface that would be worth a look at when our pitch is due for resurfacing. Was in a greenkeepers magazine 50% mix and the make up of the weave gave durability of about 1000 hours of playing per year. Read about it a few years ago and is FIFA , EUFA approved was Hatco or Harko or similar name would suspect the club will look at it as an option.

Could give the best of both worlds

Is this not the same hybrid pitch Hearts recently installed at the cost of 1 million ?!

Game was absolutely rotten. Neither team are anything special. Falkirk put Arbroath to bed last season and I’m fairly sure with any sort of decent recruitment this season coming, we won’t be far behind you soon enough.
