Arbroath v St Mirren, Sat 12th Aug

[faraway saint]

Tickets on sale.

No cash at the turnstiles so be aware. 

Hoping for a pretty decent crowd.

Both sets of supporters will be feeling good after last season and, fingers crossed, the weather should be half decent.

Ticket Info: Arbroath v St Mirren (12th July)

[faraway saint]

Well, at last this game is within sight, can't wait. 

Arbroath have lost to Dundee and drawn with Dundee Utd in the last couple of friendlies. 

There was almost 2,400 in attendance against United, hoping Saturday will top that. 

The weather's supposed to be more than reasonable so no need for too many layers.

Bit of a difference in travel 15 miles as opposed to 107 but you never know.

As part of this initiative, various alcoholic beverages and soft drinks will be available for purchase within our designated 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐫𝐢 𝐅𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐙𝐨𝐧𝐞 area at Gayfield Park from:
• 𝟏𝟏𝐚𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝟐:𝟒𝟓𝐩𝐦 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 on 12th July

These sales will be managed in full accordance with licensing regulations, with appropriate security and stewarding measures in place. The aim of the initiative is to explore how a managed approach to alcohol sales can contribute to a positive and safe matchday experience.

We’d like to remind supporters that alcohol may only be 
consumed within clearly designated areas and not in sight of the pitch, and all activity will be confined to clearly designated and monitored areas. Regular matchday safety protocols remain unchanged.

We hope this will add to the enjoyment of the matchday experience for supporters and we appreciate your cooperation and support as we participate in this limited trial.

Naw, but I can post a picture of me having a nice cold beer as I sneak about while using my Arbroath accent, which I have almost mastered after 35 years. 😉

TBH mate I'm unsure if our hospitality gets us access to this fanzone trial. 

I've emailed the club asking if we can get in, would be quite good to soak up the atmosphere if the weather's as good as forecast.

Unfortunately the fanzone is a "nogo" for us on Saturday. 

A pity, I'd have had a wee hour or so out in the sunshine ☀️ before disappearing into hospitality lounge.

I wouldn't wash my feet with Madri.

Naw, thought it would be safer to have half and half underpants.

These places are all in or around the same area mate. 

 

 

[faraway saint]

It's to be warm today but a wee bit of harr will drift in to give the players a wee bit of shade. 

Looking forward to a good day and a winning start for Saints.
