As soon as i seen Stowe going down i thought the refs not giving that.
Obviously the boy has gone in for the initial tackle, Stowe sees that the boy is on the deck and flicks the ball to the left past him. But he just looked like he tried to run over the player and not towards the ball.
Can see on the highlights him flick it left but his body does not turn or move left but straight on. He isnt trying to go round the player. Ref would have been looking at him from the front so got to believe thats what he saw too.
Obviously of course i want it to be a penalty all day long. But seeing it on the highlights i think Stowe seen a chance for a pen and played for it and failed.
I know i am going to get hate for having that view but its my honest opinion.
You would have a decent argument up until the defender jumps up into him. Stonewall penalty.

Not a bad selection for a Crocks XI.
Even got 1 on the bench to come for someone that gets double crocked.

That's all our subs gone unless a concussion

Magnificent commentary after Chalmers balloon d over bar -“Oh Logan Chalmers just hit the front window of Pepo’s”
Must have hit the ball over 88mph and back in time as they retired a few years ago.

Delaney off injured already
How is this happening
Balance on the pitch lasts for 5 minutes. Unbelievable

Yes he left Inverness so not a lone deal.

I don't think anyone can argue we were terrible in the second half today but hopefully we can start getting players back and make ourselves competitive again. Been some massive injury losses since DC left. Worrying that our worst defender today was Walker but it was his debut and hopefully he will improve. Get some good loans in to complement the squad and some key players back and we can battle to stay up.
Not going to be an easy job though but we have to fight for it.

Without our best players being fit it is going to be a massive struggle.

Defending is terrible for that goal.

What? Come on, I’m only saying what many are thinking?
Gaston (and Little for that matter) have been two of our best servants, and two of my favourite players in my time watching Arbroath. Doesn’t mean I can’t comment on a drop in form. Every player goes through it. Gaston looks to me lol he’s possibly carrying some kind of knock so a rest would do him good.
Seriously what’s wrong in saying that?
Where’s you condemnation of Lichie23 for blaming Gaston for the goal?
He was clearly at fault for the goal. I said that myself with the comment about last week.

Hate to say it but Gaston is becoming a bit of a liability. Looks unfit, immobile, overweight and is painfully slow. You could blame him for today, united’s second (possibly third?) last week and Dunfermline’s equiliser. All goalkeepers make mistakes and are punished for errors but this is happening too often.
Is it time for Adams to get a chance?
You got a new favourite now Little is injured.

Deja vu from last week.

We were advertising the guide dogs on social media in the days leading up to the match so it was maybe our kit choice rather than Utd. If you're going to do a charity kit I suppose you have to wear it at some point at home.

I would like to see Mcintosh through the middle with Bird suspended.

Aye, should've been a red and a yellow.
What's the yellow for though? Trying to stop someone attacking you in self defence?

I like his confidence trying to have a square go with Bird. I wouldn't fancy his chances of coming out on top of that one.

I'm almost more upset with the free header Wighton got 3 yards out from a corner.

Not buying that there are fights in the changing rooms most weeks. Arguments yes. I don't like people booing either but that was totally justified yesterday for Hylton after that meltdown. The main thing will be what happened behind closed doors after the match. If a proper apology and remorse was shown then a fine and back to work. If not see you later. Getting fired up and having some passion doesn't cut it as an excuse for me.
Bird I have some sympathy for as not sure what you are supposed to do in that situation.

I’ve saw a video of it back - Jay Bird does very little wrong to be completely honest. It’s not as bad as what I thought at the time but Hylton just has a head loss and goes over (standing 5 yards away from each other) and starts trying to grab Bird. Bird just reacting and trying to get him off.
I thought Bird was unlucky for the first booking and then not sure what he is supposed to do when getting attacked by Hylton.

Could it be possible that Balde being loaned was due to a logistical issue around travelling for training/match day meet up after losing his license rather than a fall out. Not sure what his situation was regarding lift shares etc but would possibly add up.

Gaston.
Steele who has been playing full back most of the season is playing centre back.Hamilton who is still finding his way back to fitness is presumably playing centre back.
Slater, Gold, Stewart, Norey, Lyon are presumably filling assorted defensive and midfield positions.
Bird up front, then presumably McIntosh and Hylton in midfield.
Three players on the bench. One midfielder, one striker, one keeper.
This can only end well.
1+1+1+1 = 4
