Biography

David was signed from Queen’s Park in July 1998 by Dave Baikie following our promotion to Division Two. He spent his first two seasons at Gayfield as a regular starter before a bad knee injury in a match against Partick Thistle in August 2000 saw him miss almost all of the 2000-01 campaign, only returning for the last game of the season. With league game time limited to just two substitute appearances in autumn of the following season, David left the club midway through and went on to sign for Shotts Bon Accord.

Timeline

  • Debut - Arbroath 0 - 0 Clyde

    Well, this is now the last game of the first quarter of the season and things have been a lot tougher in the Second Division than we thought they would be. With half of the other teams being full time our heroes of last season have been up against it and it looks as this game will be just as hard as Clyde gubbed the League Leaders, Inverness CT, 4-1 last week. Having travelled North America on holiday over the last 2 weeks, and missed another two 2-0 defeats (though did not miss any Arbroath goals), it was back to Gayfield for the ninth league match of the season.

  • First Goal - Arbroath 2 - 2 Livingston

    Reading the Newspaper reports they state that the corrosion of the metal and concrete by the sea is the cause of the closure of the two stands - it now sounds as if it is two of the covered enclosures which are being closed - if so the club should rip them down and let the fans stand in the open behind the goals - absolutely farcical when one looks at the state of Recreation Park last week when Mercer and Crawford nearly killed themselves in the building site behind the goal which Alloa were defending in the first half. If the Cooncil rejects the planning permission for the new ground when it comes before them in early December we r doomed - cannae play at Gayfield and cannae sell it and build a new stadium.

  • Last Goal - Arbroath 2 - 0 St Johnstone

    The Red Lichties stormed into the next round of the not so money spinning Forfarshire cup with the kind of performance which would have seen us through against East Fife last month. There were a lot of positive sides to a match especially considering the average age of the team playing.

  • Last Appearance - Arbroath 0 - 2 St Mirren

    It was now time for my November visit to Gayfield and the journey south started on Tuesday morning when I was driven to Stromness to get the 9am ferry to Scrabster. Arriving in Scrabster at 11am, I got the bus to Thurso station where there was time for a pint in the Station Hotel prior to getting the local branch line train down to Dingwall. The three hour odd train journey passed through some places with strange names and up Highland glens to places like Rogart and Lairg. The final part of the journey back to Stonehaven was via car from Dingwall where Lewis had been having meetings.
