We will make football players out of balloons and paper mache if there is no signing news by then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lichtie78 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Arbroath aren’t nearly as short of money as people make them out to be. I also don’t think either player will have been on anything massive in Championship terms. Yeah it’s a total myth, we pay very well. Seems to be a lazy assumption from most people given we are part time but also perpetuated by our own fans as well sometimes, although if what I was told is true there’s no way we covered all of Noubles wage. Unsure about Hamilton. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, given that any remaining options will be panic buys, it's fair to say that the squad _is_ substantially complete. So here's hoping that Bullen's man-management pays off to a significantly greater extent than last season, because this is going to be another relegation slog. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone seen Dipo train with first team yet or know the management's opinion on him.....? Looking to future and all that... Daire spoke highly of him and said he was a really strong lad with pace who'll cause teams lots of problems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's 100% pointless trying to guess where ANYONE will finish before players are signed or a ball has been kicked. I don't think many people this time last year would have had Arbroath as the leaders for most of the season or indeed Hamilton and Dunfermline anchored to the bottom for most of the season. Dunfermline were 3rd favourites with most bookmakers to WIN the league and were even 2nd with a couple and look how that turned out !! Thankfully Football in real life isn't as simple as playing Football Manager on the computer and that's why we all turn up week in week out and spend so much time posting garbage on this associated forum. Don't you just love it...... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk89 Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Far far too early to be talking about panic buys, the kids haven't even finished for the summer yet! We all know the way the summer goes normally where squads are still being tinkered with and loans sorted all the way through the league cup and into the first couple of games. Yes, we're short of bodies just now. However, so are every other team in Scotland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise when a team is struggling lack of budget is the excuse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally was rooting for you last season (apart from when playing us) also Big fan of your gaffer who has gave us all great entertainment over the years... I remember being at a game in Scottish Cup at Somerset when he went on the park to complain to ref.... Was one of the funniest things I have seen at games... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
