JC1874 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Hope this is OK, I see a few other teams have their own thread, fairly popular as well, thought it only fair the 3rd best supported team out of the 53 EOSFL teams despite being in the bottom league have one also, hopefully get some thoughts on the Dale from our own fans and others ..... Tough game Sunday v Tranent, at home but away from home hopefully a good Dale mob travels through .... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see your squads got a few old hats in it. How's Scott Dalziel getting on? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The clean living guy Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Always had a soft spot for Armadale, my old man used to take me through for junior Cup games and Derby's in the 90s. Always seemed well supported then. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How's Scott Dalziel getting on? He's injured at the moment but still a vital part of the team when fit. Still scoring plenty of goals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Was at the game v Tranent today can see a more detailed summary in "Random Matches you are going to". Thought you did superbly and matched a good Tranent team for long periods. Hope it's not too long until your back in Armadale where you belong 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordi1977 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 Really impressed with Armadale today... it really begs the question... Tier 9 - how? If that's the level of performance you guys can give against a very good Tranent side, then if you must be confident of promotion this season... and possibly even next, but let's not get ahead of ourselves! Maybe just the finishing touch of some goals is missing... but looked to have more than enough about you to at least scare the majority of sides from the leagues above. When are you moving back into Armadale for home games? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the club working hard on a good youth set up the future of the club is looking very rosey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might have to get myself along once you are back in... pretty sure with that squad, the young lads coming through and back into a permanent home there is only one direction Armadale can head in! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC1874 Posted August 21, 2022 Author Share Posted August 21, 2022 As above good game today, nothing between the teams, indeed if we had our first choice strikers fit we may have given Tranent more of a fright. Best of luck to them. Can't wait to get back to Volunteer Park, atmosphere just not the same at Creamery Park, nice enough but wasn't a football person that designed it .... Next game is away way way way up north in the Junior Cup ....... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC1874 Posted August 28, 2022 Author Share Posted August 28, 2022 Shocker of a performance up in Rothienorman, out the Junior Cup at first hurdle yet again. Best of luck to Rothie next round, good wee friendly team. Hopefully bounce back Tuesday night, the fans are grumbling ..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JC1874 Posted September 1, 2022 Author Share Posted September 1, 2022 Hard fought 2 nil victory over West Calder to bounce back, good attitude with a threadbare squad after the cup exit. Added bonus of Livi beating Bo'ness same night, puts our draw with Livi into perspective, dark horse maybe. Anyway, on to Saturday and another "home" game at Bathgate .... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordi1977 Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Well can't ask for more than 9 goals on a Wednesday evening! Decent match, Armadale far better than Edinburgh College who kinda imploded defensively in the 2nd have and were just dragged out of position for a rapid fire start to the 2nd half for Dale. The ground is looking pretty good as well... looks like there is some further work to take place? Defo a ground worth a visit... nice set up and looks like more to go... and better still, a fine selection of pies! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Wilson Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) I was there and it's really taking shape. Left my phone in the car so no photos. Well done everybody. Edited October 6, 2022 by Sergeant Wilson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
