We had a massive guy Dembele upfront Saturday and a guy with dreads who is Eze from Crystal Palace’s brother. So maybe just them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timlichtie Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I’m wondering if Dick will start Nicky Low tomorrow. A midfield battle on a plastic pitch may not be ideal at this stage pre season.Looking forward to seeing Shanks for the first time. Maybe some decent trialists. Dembele could be worth a second start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know some clubs have them as they bring in additional income from renting to the local sports community - but they are not good for players to run or turn and twist on - so many players have been injured playing on these plastic pitches. The ball never bounces the same on these pitches and doing sliding tackles is not ideal. I highly doubt Nicky Low will be playing - not worth the risk. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I’d like to see a return to 4-4-2 and Shanks and Patterson getting plenty game time. Have to play Shanks as much as possible we know all about LD and Hilson as players. Get him games the guy is our player for the next 3 years and he looks like he’s got good potential based off what we saw at Brechin and the talk about him before he signed I’d like to see Gaston Thomson Little ToB Hammy Scotty Stewart Keaghan Jacobs James Craigen Patterson Shanks McKenna Tomorrow Nicky Low in for Craigen and Bobby in for Patterson in Paisley the week after which I reckon would be our strongest line up at this moment in time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lichtie78 Posted July 1, 2022 Author Share Posted July 1, 2022 Hopefully this follows on from our last few friendlies against Montrose which have been anything but. Defo start Bobby for this, he loves a goal against them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone ever tried to sell their shares in AFC for profit before? If anyone wants to see a graph to show AFC share price rise/ fall in valuation over the past 20 years (and the next 20!) just look at an image of a flatline heart monitor. I honestly can't believe someone has been paid money to make a model which concludes Arbroath FC are a 'great investment opportunity' I'll save it as I'm sure no-one particuarly cares, but honest to f**k there are so SO many things wrong with that model and article it's painful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted July 1, 2022 Author Share Posted July 1, 2022 Am I the only one that finds our Facebook/Twitter feeds to be a lot of drivel?Just continuous photos of people in their new Arbroath kit, or whatever’s on sale at the club shop. Something interesting like a goal of the day, what happened on this day in …. Etc etc would improve it tenfold imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) They’re good ideas but the club sharing they things are a big deal to some people and a lot of people will also appreciate it. It’s like lassies who take and share a hundred photos of a night out, not for me and I’m not arsed but they like it And if you want to sell what’s in the club shop you need to advertise it. Have to admit it’s really pretty impressive at the range of things there is to buy now. Edited July 1, 2022 by 1320Lichtie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goal of the day etc so and so signed on this day is free & engaging content that fans would see and stick in their group chats etc to discuss 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
