2015

Accies

What a start to 2015 !! The first 30 mins of Thursdays game was possibly the best we have started in my reign as team captain . We looked solid at the back , the midfield was up and down tackling and passing and we looked like scoring Everytime we got into their half. All the way through the team we where excellent , Charlie filling in goal was brilliant and his communication with the back four was superb and that save In the first half ... Superb. I though Lee and juddy especially in the back four were excellent. Steve and thorny ran the midfield both looking sharp even at their age !! Jon on the right handside was my man of the match scoring two goals and skinning the handside all day long and offering cover for our right back. Simon on the left had a great game , I mentioned he was playing like Zidane on the left and i didn't mean his comb over !! Cheyenne making his debut was a constant danger and looks like he could score goals for fun. All in all a magnificent start to the year and it was great to have the support of the trialists and stu and Luis . Oh did mention my free kick ??

Great start accies let's look forward to a great 2015

A few pictures from my Accies archive of an extraordinary man

I've managed to dig out a few pictures from my Accies archive of Graham Dietz. He will be sorely missed by us all.


I have this picture dated December 2001, Graham having just been presented with a farewell gift.


A Dinamo Bar Pitch team picture before Graham left.




Pictures from the inaugural Anglo-Dutch trophy match away in Rotterdam.


Pre-wedding football match with Gaffer Holmes.


Clearly Graham would have fallen flat on his face after this was taken - he's using his right foot!


Graham offering some quiet words of advice to Ian no doubt.


Apparently Graham enjoyed his music(!).
