Lichties to strengthen

I’m enjoying my football says Dundee goalie Bain

getting clean sheets and that’s where we’ve gone wrong in the past.

“First and foremost the three points is massive for us but also getting the clean sheet is big.

“It’s been a while and it’s something we’ve spoken about for weeks now but three points is what we wanted.

“We go into these games and want to win them all and finish as high up the table as we can.

“Three points is the key thing but it shows, since the new manager’s come in, how solid we are as a unit and as a team.

“We’ve got big Marcus Haber working very hard up top for us to get into our shape, and that’s the same throughout the whole team.

“We really deserved the clean sheet on Saturday.”

Next up is Ross County and an opportunity to make a stake for a possible seventh-placed finish — something unthinkable even just a couple of weeks ago.

It will also be McCann’s first home game and a sizeable and noisy Dens support is expected.

“Hopefully, there’s a big turnout on Saturday,” said Bain.

“We’re playing a lot better. Fans come win, lose or draw but, if they’ve seen how we’ve played in the last two games, we’ll get a big crowd.

“We’re only looking up, so we’re aiming to beat Ross County and go level points with them and push for seventh — that’s been the aim since the manager came in.

“We’ve started well but there’s still a long way to go.” HAVING won the League Two title, Arbroath now have their sights set on doing well in League One.

Manager Dick Campbell plans on recruiting “four or five new players” and has already started on that quest.

He said: “I’ve targeted four or five to come in and there won’t be a lot being released. I have some very good players already here.”

Defender Ricky Little was part of the club’s titlewinning squad and he is, naturally, delighted for the club and their fans.

“It’s been hard for the fans lately but there was a fantastic support at Stirling on Saturday as we clinched the championship and it’s a backing we greatly

Ricky Little appreciate. They have been really good to us. “Not long after I came here, we were relegated and I sustained a bad injury. “However, this season has been a happier one and I’m delighted to have been part of it.”
