scotty Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I see on the text commentary that Annan Athletic have Anna Arthur in goal. Is that Kenny's sister? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanish Jag Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) It has to be because Thistle are two up after five minutes. Elliott with the first, McMillan with the second. Edited July 9, 2013 by Spanish Jag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firhillista Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Despite having 11 substitutes, we've only got two trialists showing this evening, a centre back and a midfielder. Neither Kerr nor Boulding are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kni Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I see on the text commentary that Annan Athletic have Anna Arthur in goal. Is that Kenny's sister? The preview says that King Kenny is a player-coach for Annan. Jordan Moffat, who we released at the end of the last season, is their squad too.

If the poster who was moaning about their lack of quality is in any way correct it may be to protect them from the Social. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeredStirlingsrightfoot Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I see McDaid is on 2nd half, I assume this is the lad we got for the U20's and not Victor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Wragg Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Much better result , the Govan Diddies only managed a draw and a 3-1 win here and lost 2-1 at the midden , ok only a friendly but good to get 5 on the scoresheet and by all accounts it could and should have been more , sounds like a lot of work still to do though , in Archie we trust !!!!

Trotter Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I'll keep saying pre-season at this stage nothing more than a fitness exercise. Hard to judge trialists. I offer you Jean-Yves Anis. World class in pre-season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanish Jag Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 I find pretty annoying that a trialist scores two goals and we cannot have his name. Joel Thomas, former Accies player, was on trial today( he scored) for Dinamo Bucharest against Hearts and the Romanian club has no problem with his name shown in the sheet.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 From an Accies mate. "Lot of talent. Fee agreed between Accies & Bolton in January but deal fell thru.. Freed in May with 2 years left on his contract. Worth a punt good prospect". Clearly something funny there but Accies have a good track record with youngsters. If whatever happened that resulted in him leaving is sorted sounds like he'd be worthwhile. Besides he's under 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 McMillan was excellent tonight playing a half at each right and left back. Fraser looked composed on the ball and made some excellent passes, he would've been a standout even if he never scored twice. It was great to see Welsh and Lawless back too and both had good games.

Gordie Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Kerr was sitting in the dug out. He will sign from the way he was speaking. Big English centre back and Fraser from Accies other trialists. I liked the look of Lyndsey and Keenan when they came on and also new lad from Morton Declan something. No failures tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordie Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 Usual 3 up front. Elliott on the left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordie Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 From a page listed on the transfer news thread, English cb may be Neil trotman, however he did look a bit younger than 26. Could be wrong just looks like him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Stevenson Posted July 9, 2013 Report Share Posted July 9, 2013 What formation was this and where was Elliot playing? Starting line-up with Gallagher in goals then McMillan RB, Trialist and Conrad CBs, Sinclair LB Fraser, Welsh, Craigen and Elliot were the midfield, but they moved about a lot, so quite fluid rather than rigid positioning! Welsh and Fraser went a bit deeper to pick the ball up from the defence. Lawless was in front of them and picked the ball up well and Doolan straight up front. That's the way I saw it anyway! In complete control for pretty much the entire match. Loads of changes in the second half. Trialist centre-half looked decent enough, but under no significant pressure. Fraser looked the part even without the goals though he gave away a couple of fouls just outside the box. Christie had a blistering start and linked up reasonably well with Sinclair. McMillan was very good. I think that's four positions he's played in less than 10 games! McGuigan came on second half and made very little impact. He needs to show a bit more in the remaining pre-season games I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodmac Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 It seems to me from Archies comments that he is quite keen on Gary Fraser, but not at all convinced that we might be able to sign him,as he has other options elsewhere. The mere fact that he mentioned him by name, and not the other trialist who has gone back to Spain to see if he can sort things out regarding development fees to his previous clubs, says pretty much that Fraser is one he would like to have, but thinks it unlikely.
