Shopping for refreshments first. Might get some half time pies in as well. 

It’s over 12hours away......this is worse than Christmas, might go back to bed.  Hope your stocking up on some pre and post match pies as well......can’t forget those.

Other way round I'd think mate, getting out of this league is top priority, cups are a bonus.

 

It will be for the club. 

But as a fan, for me  winning the sc is. 

 

Folk forget about demotions/ promotions, not a cup win. 

 

Lc and sc double will do for me😊

Curry does not belong in a pie.....10 pints of lager though.... take it that’s your first half quota ?

 

[Marczero]

3-0 boyce wighton and Naismith

Used to go to a pub, the Abbey in Forres, where they done a 3 course pasties. One end was crab cake then the middle was curry, worked okay until the other end which was custard. Just wrong at every level.

I hope we stick to a very similar starting 11. Allow the defence and GK to build rapport.

 

Agree with this, it's crucial for partnerships and units to be allowed to develop with a consistent run of games. Chopping and changing the backline is disruptive.

Ahh... Forres, that explains it.

Arbroath will have everyone behind the ball and hope for a mistake or lucky breakaway.

 

A couple of quick goals from us and their gameplan is in tatters.

And practicing corners and free kicks. Dead balls could be our best chance of scoring if they do park the bus.

👍

[Deevers]

It’s a cold wet place to visit usually. An early goal for us would help. Going for a professional 0 - 2 win for us.

[tamanov]

We will be playing a team who knows that

- We are a bigger club

- We have better players

- We have a great team spirit

- We are scoring goals

- We have a world class keeper

- We have a real sense of injustice to address

 

But enough about Hibs 

 

Lets do Arbroath first 😍

 

[Stu_HMFC]

Another couple ex Hearts players tonight Jason Thomson 🙄 Colin Hamilton brother of Jack and Scott Gallagher .

 

I'm hoping for a early goal in the first 5/10 mins get the game under control then stroll it .  Connor Smith on loan there too will he be playing or will hearts have our loan players ineligible to play against us ? I find it mad teams let their own players play against them on loan . 

 

0.4 away win

Certainly do although they have moved on a bit since the old days. https://bonaccordsoftdrinks.com/ 

 

They have certainly gone upmarket.  When I was a teen we got Bon Accord and Globe juice lorries plus about 3 different ice-cream vans coming around the estate.  There was a chip van, too, but that stopped when a chip shop opened in a block of shops built across the road.  

[jambonian]

It'll depend on how they play against us. Get an early goal against them and they have to come out and attack. The game's already over if they don't. They do and it should leave a few gaps for us to exploit. If it's 0-0 at halftime they'll sit in and defend for their lives. I'm not going to go mad, i'll take a 2-0 win away from home and 6 points in the bag.

The grand daughter of the original owner relaunched it about 7 or 8 years back. Great stuff. Really nice folk, her and her husband.

I like this post. But tonight will be a challenge I think, I'd settle for 1-0

I like the look of that team. 

 

Strong spine, aligned with pace and width.

 

That would be my team to win the semi final too.

It does look good, but Haring won't start I don't think.  It'll be Lee and Irving again I think with Halliday perhaps coming off the bench for one of them.

[robroy1874]

Same weekend as El Classico. Should this fixture be called El Haddico?  

 

You know - Smokies, Haddock etc. Sorry, I'll get ma coat!

First indicator of our ability to remain consistent.

 

Last week was a lesson in great finishing, hopeully more of the same tomorrow.

 

Going 0-2

Contemplating this which I fancy. Waiting for team lines but will probably chuck a £10 on it if Boyce starts.

If that's allowed... 

 

Back in the day, I phoned my girlfriend and her mum answered. 

I asked if Morag was in. 

Her mum said, "She's at Arbroath." 

I said, "When she's finished, can you get her to call me back?"

Halliday in for Irving, Frear in for Roberts. 
 

The rest as is.

Same starting eleven as last week apart from Halliday in for Irving.

Semi team i think with Naismith as impact sub if needed. That teams destroying the tramps.

I'm sure it was Bon Accord & Alpine that drove round Broomhouse in the 70's 🤔

Plus 2 Ice Cream Vans, a Grocery Van and a Rag & Bone man every now and then!! 🙃

Robbie's record v Arbroath at DUFC was patchy. Never more than a goal in it either way.

(L) DUFC 0-1 Arbroath 1.2.20

(W) Arbroath 0-1 DUFC 14.12.19

(W) DUFC 2-1 Arbroath 21.9.19 (2 goals by Shankland 88,90+2)

(D) DUFC 0-0 Arbroath 7.9.19 (Challenge Cup - lost 4-3 on pens)

 

We'll win but likely by only one goal maybe maximum of two. 2-1 Hearts.

Spot on mate. But the daddy were the guys that worked spinning the Waltzers round at the shows. Guaranteed babe-magnet job..
