Thistle4eva Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Watching that tonight.. that’s why we were disappointed to lose Rudden when we did. He’s a handful when he plays like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could see it so well from behind the goals. They pulled us all over the joint, our midfield was all over the place and the defenders were stepping in there. They had total control of the game in spells. They were running directly at our back 4 time after time I'd agree with that and much better than anything we saw under McPake in the same league with a superstar playing so presumably we have a better game plan. On the downside our keeper doesn't look ready for week in week out pressure. Worryingly or the first time in a long time our defence look comfortable on the ball but hopeless without it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willie adie Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I've seen Gaston now twice fail to make what appeared to be a routine clearance, tonight and in the end if season game against *** DMCs mob last season and both Times cost Arbroath the game, A pity as those costly errors aside he looks a decent keeper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam899 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 (edited) We’re definitely improving. Very encouraging to score 4 against Arbroath. Was impressed with them and easy to see why they’ve done so well the last number of seasons. Really good away crowd too, slightly more than Thistle and more vocal too IMO. Bowyer acknowledged we’ve got far more to give which is also encouraging. Josh Mulligan, ooooft! McGowan, what a player he’s been for us. His experience is vital to the team, and technically he’s still class. Edited August 12, 2022 by Liam899 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pens_Dark Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 The most encouraging thing for me is that we are a team that still look like we are playing in the lower gears. Defence still needs a lot of work but some of our attacking play is brilliant to watch which is something we couldn't say for the past few seasons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the boy Mulligan is excellent, especially when he is getting Dundee up the pitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange comment indeed. I knew this backlash would come. People were obsessed with us last season, and now those exact same people are desperate for us to fail. The whole thing is just a media construct! This season, I'm looking forward to us no longer being media darlings, and being just another team again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I thought Arbroath were really decent last night. Fantastic spirit and no little skill, strangely a lot better than Patrick. Great support too, hope you guys make the play offs. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clashcityrocker Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Dundee were the better team and deserved their 3 points - Arbroath's defence were unusually all over the place, I doubt any other team will score 4 against them this season ( just had a really off game). Also thought the Dundee players seemed sharper and quicker - they looked like contenders to win the league. Having said that, Arbroath will be bringing in a few players soon - if we get the new signings required ( a striker, attacking mid-fielder and winger) we will be up and running. I think we will beat Dundee this season - but last night Dundee were worthy winners. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, think they'll finish in the play-off spots if they cut out the daft mistakes and play like they did last night. Good, industrial team. Could lay off the hacking a bit, but it's what makes them different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
