David Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Well, were 1-0 up at half-time. Jamie Murphy with the goal. Â We survived a few scares early on, but that looks to be the game over now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cum Doctor Posted July 23, 2010 Author Share Posted July 23, 2010 Dumbarton on Sunday. New team basically so the result doesn't fuss me TOO much, although it'd be nice to get ourselves a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAFKAC Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Funnily enough Haraga, I'm just off the phone from speaking to Allan Jenkins about next weekend's match between Stranraer and Morton. Nice guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cum Doctor Posted July 23, 2010 Author Share Posted July 23, 2010 Isn't Jenkins a former Stranraer player ? Â The season where we were the form team in the 1st, Jenkins was the key player. There was a brilliant stat going about with the number of games we played with and without Jenkins, and we basically lost most of our games without him in the team and won all but two with him in the team.

TAFKAC Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 He is indeed. Eight years at Stranraer and born in the town. He's a decent player and looking forward to coming back to Stair Park for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Aberdeen have turned to Pakistan international Adnan Ahmed to fill the role of Mark Kerr who quit for Greece. The midfielder, who came through the Manchester United youth system with Darren Fletcher, has three games to prove he has a future at Pittodrie.  Ahmed, who has scored four goals in 14 appearances for Pakistan, is a free agent after spending last season with Hungarian outfit Ferencvaros.  Boss Mark McGhee, who will monitor the 26-year-old in friendlies against Fraserburgh, Peterhead and Dunfermline, said: "We have 15 signed players but are still short in certain positions such as a defensive midfielder and a left-back.  "We need a more physical player in the middle. I am confident we can sign these players for the start of the season." Source: The Daily Record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only saw him play in the Peterhead game and he looked decent, liked a tackle at the very least. Apparently he had another offer on the table and tried to hurry McGhee's decision - so he was allowed to leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Police made 20 arrests following Lincoln City's much anticipated pre-season friendly with Celtic. Trouble blew up in the lower part of the High Street following the match on Saturday, with both Imps and Hoops fans being arrested.  The arrests were for assault, public order offences and one for possession of a flare. As the Echo went to press no one had been charged.  The Echo heard from passers-by in the High Street that a St George's flag was burned outside the Golden Cross and later pro-IRA and anti-military songs could be heard.  Between 2,000 and 4,000 Celtic fans were expected to travel to the city from all corners of the UK, but the total attendance at Sincil Bank was just 3,780.  Dozens of police officers and riot vans were present for most of the day.  The game went largely without incident apart from flares being let off and a scuffle between Celtic fans.  Lincolnshire Police's football intelligence officer PC Andy Pearson said: "It's fair to say it was a challenging day.  "There was some disorder at the Golden Cross pub and some after the match and a lot of that was flared by the inflammatory nature of the songs from Celtic fans. Many of the incidents were fuelled by alcohol.  "Apart from an incident between Celtic fans there were no problems at the ground.  "There were quite a number of police resources deployed and we will be seeking banning orders for those people arrested.  "The majority of the disorder was kept away from the precinct and shoppers, which was a priority."  Earlier in the day, a sea of green flooded the High Street as fans drank at the Golden Cross and the Ritz.  Many of those had travelled from Glasgow to see their hero, Imps manager Chris Sutton.  Tony Clark, 23, of Clydebank, set off for Lincoln at 5am.  He said: "Chris Sutton is my hero and I wanted to see him waving goodbye to the Celtic fans because he never said goodbye.  Sutton is regarded as a Celtic legend having scored 63 goals in 130 appearances at Parkhead between 2000 and 2006.  The striker helped the Glasgow club win three Scottish Premier League titles, two Scottish Cups and two Scottish League Cups, but many supporters feel he was not given a proper send-off when he departed in early 2006.  Mark Rambo, 23, said: "Chris Sutton is a hero, that's why we are all here."  Charlie Creane, landlord of the Golden Cross, said: "The fans were here just singing and drinking and that's as far as they went.  "I was cleaning up and there were about six Celtic fans leaving when some local youths came up and started taunting them.  "My daughter got caught in the crossfire and got a gash on her head." Not quite as "friendly" as you would hope, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
