ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 An injury to worry about is less than ideal. Really need to make signings before Tuesday night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as of right now, when this league Cup starts, you've no possible way of knowing the answer to that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenmavis Diamond Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 A solid win to kick us off, 2 subs or not. Injury not ideal of course, but that's up to McCabe to see who he can get signed and available. before Tuesday without it being dross. Personally would rather he takes his time and gets players that can fire us up the league than sit on the bench v Edinburgh on a a Tuesday night. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossm25 Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Enjoyed that today , Cammy Ballantyne is an absolute steal and although not tested much Rae's distribution is better than Curries. All in all a nice wee day out in the sun! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHEMOMAN Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Looking out the aftersun now. What a glorious day. Looked like a stroll on a rock hard pitch. I'd have put Hutton on and played Josh Rae up top! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapelhall chap Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Unfortunately we went into the old stand and missed out on the glorious sunshine . The pitch looked good but there were some weird bounces so keeping control was important. They never really pressed us and we're just a wee bit better than Cumbernauld colts. It took quite a while to break through after a ten minute spell of good saves by their goalie. Once ahead it was good to see Cammy pick pocket the No 3 and for him and Devenny to score is a real bonus. Frizzel was excellent and the 3-5-2 was never exposed. Can't recall Rae having a save. The worry is the injury to McMaster and the thin squad. It's a nonsense formula which starts so early and penalises clubs in any kind of transition. I also made an error in parking in the lower car park but a diversion via Hill O Beath let us spot Jim Baxter's statue and in Crossgates the street named after the wonderful Stuart Adamson. Back in time to get the Saturday curry . It will be tougher on Tuesday but a good start. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You made that up. And if he came and missed it it wouldn't go down as an own goal, as I saw it he came to punch the ball and it skiffed off the back of his glove. He does like a moan at the ref too. My first viewing of him yesterday and let's say there's definite room for improvement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny_m Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 There we are, so it looks like all those youngsters who were trialists in NL cup will be here. https://www.airdriefc.com/2223-news/220710/gow-returns-to-lead-airdrieonians-academy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 The worst kept secret in North Lanarkshire is finally out. Would be good to see a squad list to get an idea of the size of this academy squad, and would also be good to see some of them in action on Tuesday off the bench if we haven’t made other signings by that time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen it back yet but your assessment of him sounds pretty accurate, he’s a good keeper and I’d have been happy enough to keep him but definitely some obvious areas he can improve on. Good to finally have the Alan Gow youth team confirmed. As @ShineOnYouCrazyDiamondssays, it would be nice to see three or four of them on the bench on Tuesday to pad out the squad and maybe even get some game time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossm25 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Good to have it finally confirmed. Hopefully be able to unearth some local gems in the long run. Would be good to get a few youngsters in training with the first team as well. Between this and re investing in the park its good to see us planning for the future. Hopefully some signings early next week and the future on the park will be looking just as bright ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCabe said in his interview he's close to getting a few signings in and he said sometimes you've got to be a bit patient. Everything sounds very promising just now. I don't think the injury on McMaster is serious so hope he'll be back for Tuesday too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
