stan3600 Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Accepted. I’m often astonished at other fans’ opinions of our players and their performances but if I wasn’t interested I wouldn’t be here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 @Lichtie78text me saying Tait was shite and I understand why. He is so rushed in everything he does he needs to try slow the game down in his head. Overall though Arbroath got an important win today and there are positives there to take 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SotesBornalichtie Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 As Tattie36 said, it's all about opinions so thought I'd chip in with mine. Great to get a win, we really needed it. Great ball from Allen for Bobby to score, but Allen (and others) passed the ball to the opposition too often. Had high hopes for Allen to do well with us, maybe needs a little more time to settle in. Hammy took a shot from outside the box!! Went over the bar though. Only Lichtie to try that. When Oakley and Bobby broke down the wings there was seldom an Arbroath player in the Accies box to cross to. Thought Fosu did well, having been put on as a striker at the last moment. Thought Isiaka didn't do so well. He was through near the end of the game with a defender chasing him and he took too long to shoot and the defender caught up with him. Other than that he didn't make an impact, neither did Corfe, although he posed for a photo with a young girl fan when warming up. Though Tait had a good game, lot of energy and got stuck in. Little, O'Brien, Hammy solid at the back, Gaston was never really troubled. Off the bottom of the league, hope we can kick on from here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUAFC Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Agree with most of that. However Fosu didn't do well. Also Gastons save from point blank to turn it over the bar was unbelievable !! Gaston, Hammy and Boab Skinn having great seasons. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlichtie Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 The real plus for me is the return to solid defence. A glance at the table shows that we have a goals against as good as the pace setters. Goals for is the problem (no shit Sherlock)!Corfe coming on as sub seemed futile yesterday. Maybe Shanks played wide could work in the last 15. Clutching at straws? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corfe just cannot contribute in any meaningful way he’s not got the physicality to play in this division I would have preferred seeing Shanks too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big lad sitting in front of the back 4 has made a huge difference. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You apologise for taking pish and we will all move on Take a read of some of your posts last night, they way you’ve went on at other fans because they hold a differing opinion to you isn’t on, it just doesn’t come across very nice, demanding apologies from folk. After all, we won. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 That goal is so good watching back, didn’t realise how good Mikeys switch was at the time either, never realised Scotty Allan skinned the guy before the pass and then Bobby I dunno where he come from but what a great run and a perfect finish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtiemike Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 The goal looks good seeing it back like that. Think it’s a case of limping towards Jan and seeing what we can get in then, hopefully we can stay in touch with all around us until then. For now we can find a way of playing that utilises what we have, I think we all know the deficiencies in our team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tattie36 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 BBC stats say we had 6 attempts and 1 on target Could easily have scored 3 or 4 although Hamilton could also have got a couple. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stan3600 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 BBC stats say we had 6 attempts and 1 on target [emoji38] Could easily have scored 3 or 4 although Hamilton could also have got a couple.Those stats are just wrong. Apart from the goal their keeper saved a header from Bobby and a corner from McKenna that was going in. Then from memory Fosu hit the bar and the post, Bobby and Tait both had shots blocked, Hammy blootered one over the bar, Allan had his chip cleared when he should have scored and Corfe missed a sitter. There could have been more. To be fair their keeper wasn’t very busy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone looking at the stats only though might think we were fortunate to win. We had 3 on target in the first half, 2 headers and the goal, plus 2 off the woodwork and a couple of off target efforts. Second half was quieter but we still had 1 on target (Allen) plus about another 3 or 4 off target. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just needed to get over it and put the laces through it or take a touch and pick his spot. He was lucky we were winning at the time.
