CoveRangers1922 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Dabrowski goes on loan to Hibs. Would have walked into our starting XI. Another one to chalk off my list of pre-season targets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example on a Friday night? Couple of us trying to plan where to get a drink before the game in a couple weeks (the 2nd one ) and thought we would just head straight to the social club because of the time we'll get up there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it is. Likely be open that Friday night from at least 5pm. Will try to find the exact opening time for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moorie Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I see Scott Fox has just signed. Even though going to school with McKenzie and he was mates with my mates younger brother Cove definitely need a experienced keeper for this league. Good but if business 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoveRangers1922 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 Cove interested in taking Tony Weston on loan for the remainder of the season according to Mark Pirie (article from Daily Record) We need height and physicality to play alongside Mitch. Weston is undoubtedly a finisher but he's smaller than the aforementioned. If he come to us I'm dubious about this signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our first home game v Killie last season was almost flat calm, yet the media and Killie fans talked about paying in a “wind tunnel” etc. Yes, when it’s windy it can be pretty grim but the wind is only bad enough to have a big impact on games a few times a season. The only bad one this season so far was against QP on 23rd December. I think it was way worse on Saturday past at Ayr. Scotland in general is pretty windy and I would say Aberdeen, where I also live, is a far windier place than Arbroath in general. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledLichtie Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I think the stadium location, right on the coast can make it breezier, but aye, its overexaggerated. The windy days live in the memory because they are so rare! That particular game was windy, and playing against the wind, Scott Fox took about 15 almost identical goal kicks, and every single one was shanked out of play before the half way line. At no point did he learn. He never tried kicking it low, he never tried kicking the ball to the other side of the pitch, he never even tried moving the ball to a spot further away from the goal. Every single time, he put the ball on the same spot, faced in the same direction, and wellied it full power over the stand to increasingly loud fury from the Thistle fans, and cheers from us. It was one of the funniest halves of football I have ever seen. I'll never forget it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess can play anywhere along front line. Hope it works out for the lad as he certainly doesn't lack in effort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not expecting him to win much in the air or be strong defensively but if he can score/create then he'll be valuable 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scottish cup game in 2005 where it was all seasons in one day then a preseason friendly back in 2017 fine summers evening to be fair. Remember my dad taken me in the Easter holidays when I was about 8 taken round the ground and tour of of inside the stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 After next week will Cove have had two home games on BBC TV this season? Looking to come up for the game in April but didn't want to book in case it got moved to Friday night, however if you've have two home games then it shouldn't be as last season every team had two home games shown. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played Queen's Park at home on BBC Scotland earlier in the season definitely so if the rules are the same this season you're fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
