How is that very optimistic? It is ankle ligaments he’s out with? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very confident we will replace Nouble with another loanee anyway. First few appearances he was miles off it but since he's come into the team he has looked better each game. Thought he was really good on Saturday. I'm sure DC will be looking at a Nouble replacement but don't mind Dowds as an option at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlichtie Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 How is that very optimistic? It is ankle ligaments he’s out with? The recent pictures of his physio looked like he wasn’t putting weight on it. If he was 2 weeks from playing I’d expect him to be in light training. There’s been no mention of that yet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Lewis Vaughan and Nicky Low are two players who have bags of quality. Normally in football (particularly Scottish) you love to hate those type of players. I can't say I have any ill feeling towards either though and am usually pretty gutted for them when I hear they are yet again crocked. Hopefully Low is back training soon enough. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back training and 2-3 weeks till back in the team. Article in the courier about it. I can’t believe how well we’ve coped without him, 100 percent our main man beforehand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always think it’s at it’s worst around this time of year and then again in February / March.

We've been a bit lucky so far this season, a few Saturday's we've been away from home it's been howling a gale in Arbroath. Oh aye it was windy against Killie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was early in January, was bitter cold with freezing rain sheeting in from the Forth. The game was shite and we spent the match huddled up the back of the stand trying and failing to keep warm. She never spoke to me for three days after that ...... still we won the cup tie, what's not to like, eh? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtgilphead Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 IMO, the coldest league ground was Berwick. When the wind blows down the pitch from the North end of the ground, there's no shelter at all and it's absolutely miserable. At least you can always find some shelter from the Gayfield wind machine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farflung lichtie Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) Healthy ventilation in public venues is now widely recommended/prescribed - Gayfield’s been ahead of that curve for yonks. …… not to mention, its natural cooling capability for those increasingly warm summer season games thanks to the world frying. One day, all stadia will boast these features (tho ours will be underwater by then). I’m sure others have noted obvious comparisons between a) our last home game v Dunfermline and b) our last hone game with Queens (last March). In both cases, the team taking an early two goal lead lost 4-2. Makes the tactical/motivational talk a little trickier.

lichtie23 Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Confident of a win today and hopefully there is a healthy crowd to back the boys. It’s a long shot but we could be top at 5pm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
