Lichtie78 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Great to have the real stuff back next week. An even bigger derby crowd than usual due to it being Montrose flag day as well perhaps?For me the only dilemma in our team is who partners Whatley in midfield. Swankie & Gold both done well in pre-season and I might edge towards Gold’s extra legs, but DC loves Swankie so I think he’ll start. Graham could also be in with a shout in centre midfield.

Mexico Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Nice to be able to ease ourselves into the season against one of the relative minnows in the league this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are both in their mid-50's now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOFOREVER Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 The Mo/Arbroath rivalry is for 90 minutes of play on the pitch and for fans on messageboards. I'd hope most decent fans of both clubs would want each other to do well apart from against each other unless it was last game of the season and mattered in some way. Smokies won it a year ago, Mo won it last season to keep it in Angus. Well done both. Now lets just get on with the game on 4/August without clapping, jeering or any other crap (except flag flying) before the show gets going. Hope for a good crowd as with all the Angus 'derbies' this season. We are Angus (well I'm not, but sort of co-opted). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farflung lichtie Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Thomson missing next week apparentlyIl be disgusted if any Lichtie claps Montrose onto the park A respectful (brief) applause is justified. That Mo title win was a terrific feat.. and turnaround after they nearly went out of the league. I’m grateful the derbies are back. During the game, the customary dogs’ abuse towards opposition and -depending on performance - officials will resume and of course support for the Lichties on the park.
