Went to FC Edinburgh-Arbroath today as an interested neutral with a mate.

Cant see anyone in FC that will cause a serious threat to most teams in Div 1.  Arbroath played the better overall game but for long periods were ineffective. Bizarre that a dull game produced a couple of spectacular goals.

The powers that be at Edinburgh presumably see Meadowbank as a step up in facilities but it has zero atmosphere. None. Pretty much ground zero view of the pitch as well. Headed to the Artisan for a pint with 10 mins to go. The punters in there are far more interesting!

As a footnote, whoever designed a north facing stand in Scotland needs a serious word. Constant shadow in July, in the past in winter it was (and will be) fucking freezing.

There may be zero atmosphere because most of those CITY fans who did the singing and chanting are voting with their feet in regard to the wholly unnecessary name change

Very poor first half performance. Changes made a difference at half time and Bobby stole the show with two absolute belters.
 

Terrible stadium terrible surface but that will get better after some games. Feel sorry for Edinburgh fans enduring that for the foreseeable.

Desperately need them 2 strikers in that dc has spoken about cause hilson / LD simply aren’t good enough and can’t rely on shanks to get the goals for the team although the early signs are promising for shanks.

Just need a St. Mirren shootout win during the week and we win the group and hopefully that happens to allow us to go into the Airdrie game with the option of making some changes.

 

In saying that, a win against Airdrie gives us a fair chance of being seeded in the 2nd round.

Saints have the problems many clubs have. Powderpuff up front.
I thought Aberdeen would struggle this season but Saints look much poorer.

In terms of physicality I think IF we get the Curtis Main from the end of the season back we can address that and IF we can keep Eamonn Brophy fit we should have enough up front………………2 big ifs though.
