The Arbroath Thread


Recommended Posts

The record was broken over 10 years ago. People just seemed to stick their fingers in their ears, close their eyes and pretend it never happened.

 

Aye, but you can't really count 149 deliberate own-goals as a competitive game!

 

Looks like the world record really has been taken from us fairly this time  :(

Rumour has it you lot have signed, Darren Lyle Farquarson on a two year deal from Stockport County.

Young, Strong, Hard, Ball Winning Centre Half!

Can be a bit argumentative with the officials but all in all a decent player!

Have you got any evidence/proof in this? Don't see why we would gamble a 2 year deal on a player we don't know much about and hasn't been playing in the Scottish game. Surely the chairman wouldn't give a 2 year deal to a player who could get a bad injury in his first game and be out for a season. If its true there must be a clause.

Think the league cup sections are great for us in comparison to what people seem to be wanting on the whole. Us in a more compacted smaller north region of 10 would leave us with a guaranteed 1/2 maybe even 3 teams that would give us long journeys out of 4. The larger regions of 20 have given us a great chance of getting a more local draw.

Obviously shite for Dumbarton though.

Thats what I don't understand, we are further north

If you were in the league set up where Dumbarton are and they were where you are you'd swap places.

Eta: it'll change year in year out depending on league placings.

In each section, north as south.

1 team from top seeds. (Ross County/ICT/Saints/Dundee). 1 team from 2nd seeds. 3 teams from the unseeded teams.

Dundee, Dundee Utd, Dumfermline, Arbroath and Cove Rangers! A wee bit of money from that and a look at Cove Rangers too... cue the draw being Ross County, Dumbarton, Cowdenbeath, East Fife and Arbroath! :-(

So Montrose are guaranteed at least one of the the teams from pot 1 and one from pot 2? Hopefully get some decent away trips
