I think we've been too accommodating to away fans the last few seasons, and it's come to our own detriment. Another permanent segregation fence at the main road side corner flag would do fine, especially for games at this time of year.
Ayr fans usually quite rowdy when they come up, be faf watching our "stewards" trying to deal with anything in the corner of the main stand. Missed last week and really looking forward to this tomorrow, feels like we are actually capable of scoring a couple of goals now. Home win hopefully to set me up for my football teams smoker afterwards
I think in the near future it needs to go to 2 smaller leagues. For teams like Arbroath Vics it's a really tough sell to the best amateur players to come and play junior where you have no chance of winning anything, and will take some absolute skuddings off the better teams. Not that appealing when you could stay amateur and play for leagues/cups.
Agreed, the way some people are going on you'd think this kind of situation hasn't happened a million times before at clubs everywhere in the world. Player signs, doesn't fit in, moves on, nobody dies.
Watched highlights back from Saturday today, I reckon you put that performance in when you've got a few wins on the board already and you get something out of it. Just seemed to snatch at every chance we got, but definitely signs of encouragement there.
Disappointed with you lads tonight, 2-0 up but never really looked in control. Crying out for a striker to link it all together. Thought bobby was way too deep first half, picking through balls has never been his game. Fair play to East Craigie though who battled back into it.
I would imagine Saturday will see the Vics biggest home crowd in a good while, with Bobby Linn and Lochee United coming to town and Arbroath restricted to 200 tickets away to QP. Unfortunately it seems likely it'll end up in an absolute hammering, I was at the 6-0 loss to Scone at the weekend and it was bleak. Tough trip to Kirrie for them tomorrow night as well.
Letham will have midweek league games at the start of the season so probably just a temporary measure. Sure Ross Campbell is involved with the running of the place.
I see we are wearing our eyesore third kit on Saturday, should always wear home kit at home don't care if it's for charity or not. Maybe get a couple of Labradors in exchange to play in defence mind you.
