SomethingAboutObua Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 2-0 to us, controversial decision to go 2-0 up that totally changed the game because Arbroath were really growing into the game and could've equalised but big bad Hearts influenced the referee because they're bigger. Expecting something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sort of player who showed a good attitude but was never quite good enough to hold down a regular place at Tynecastle. He was actually almost 25 before he left us, spending several years as a fringe first team player, but then six years as a regular at Raith Rovers (presumably full time) and the last two at Arbroath. I see Jamie Brandon as quite like Jason Thomson and suspect his career will follow a similar path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chambie15 Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 Who (like me) was at the 7-0 horsing we gave them on Christmas Eve 1977 at the windiest place on gods earth? Cracking day out full of the festive cheer and if I recall the pubs didn't know what hit them. Not a bit of bother, just hunners o Jambos in festive spirits before the game, and like a bairn with a new toy from Santa after it.

The Treasurer Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 This game will tell us a lot about the players mental attitude. It would be easy to be up for the scumdee game. First game of the season, against one of our main challengers, who had shafted us big time and at Tynecastle (even though it was BCD). Very different story at a crappy wee ground in poor conditions against a small unfancied team who will be focused on damage limitation. This is where the players will have to get stuck in and not think they just need to turn up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the away blue strip with alternate shorts, except maroon. Thinking of a colour clash. We'll probably just use the away kit with maroon shorts. There won't be a clash as Arbroath wear white shorts in their kit combination, or at least they are this season: Last week's game v Raith Rovers. Preseason v Formartine.

Robbie says Arbroath will be difficult to beakdown as their back 4 are well drilled and have been together for a long time. Despite that they lost their league opener 3-0 to Raith Rovers & got a man sent off. I’m going for a 3-0 win for the JT’s. Mon the Hearts!!! Discuss. Highlights on Raith TV showed that it was all Arbroath until Raith scored. It could have been 0-3 in the first 20 minutes. After the first goal the Arbroath keeper looked a bit suspect.

A minor point but since when did league games get categorised by "round"? Second league game of the season. I expect 5 and will be disappointed with less than a 4 goal win. We need to dominate this league and be in a strong position if an attempt is made to "call it" which I think is likely at some point given the precedent.

alwaysthereinspirit Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 I know every game is different but after last weeks demolition of Dundee that’s what we need more of tomorrow night. Talking goal difference seems weird this early but it’s real. Very good chance this season doesn’t go 27 games. 3 goal win minimum is what I’m hoping for.

Had a search for 2020-21 arbroath strips fail. It kept referring me to past seasons. Found the recent strip you pointed out eventually but it wasn't clear if it was their home strip. I think you're right though, it will be basically the blue Away strips for us. Get the thermals on, deep heat on the legs and mustard rubbed on the chests lads! No excuses.

Might take a bit to break them down though. 3 hours ago, andydog said: I hope we can rack up the goals but i think its unlikely. A professional 2-0 would be a good job well done. Arbroath don't lose many at home. I think they only lost 6 games at home in 2 years and only conceded 10 goals at gayfield last season. It will be freezing cold, wet, windy (haven't actually checked the weather I'm just assuming because it arbroath), minging pitch and they will sit in and make it difficult. A completely different kind of game from last week when Dundee would have been thinking that they had the quality up front to compete, Arbroath won't be thinking like that at all. They would be delighted with a 0-0 so they will sit in for as long as we don't score. I would hate this game to go into the second half goalless.

Dundee was a very open game where we got an early goal. Most teams, especially away, will have 10 men behind the ball. If we get an early goal in these games we could score a few but there will def be some horrid, frustrating away games. These are the types of games when this place can go into meltdown. Hoping for a few goals to build momentum but most import thing is pick up 3 points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think someone should need need to be off form to be dropped when we have that luxury.

I had to go onto their website and just find a random match report that had pictures, but image searches were all 2018/19 kits or earlier! I think they have a white away kit, but I imagine it will be light blue for us, as it's a clearer contrast than black, especially for an evening kick off Regardless, I expect to give them an absolute pumping, and I hope they remember that this is what they voted for!
