[The Arbroath Thread]

Its was dead easy to say after 6 games sack Lumsden cause he was losing players outside the transfer window and deploying the same negitive we most not lose tactics.

The Arbroath way I take about is 2 up front and at least one out and out winger giving proper width and not having to worry about defending cause the full back behind him isn't really that great.

People questioned why after 6games I wanted Lumsden gone after 26 games its evident why.

If we collect no points Saturday and Tuesday at Berwick our next home game could be total make or break.

Dick Campbell would bite our boards hand off to get a way back in to football, it will be killing him being dragged round b&q and dobbies by his Mrs on a Saturday afternoon.

Dick Campbell or Jim Jeffries as a short term appointment for last 9 or 8 games depending when the sacking comes.

Then at that point open applications for the position of manager interviews held asap on the season ending and appoint someone with a long-term view like Hartley took to Alloa, as let's be fair the short term plan and view isn't working.

Surely an Under 19/20s team is more cost effective over 5 years than loan after loan!

Also whoever comes in as manager needs to play the Arbroath way instead of what we have witnessed this season.

I think we're probably in a dangerous position because we've been pish for most of the season, rather than just the last 3 games.

Those 3 home games should have been 5/6 points.

Main point being you need to take points at home if you dont want to end up in Brora or Edinburgh for a play off in our present situation.

Whole season has been below par and how many midfielders do you need to sign in one season!

1 point from 3 home games is the reason we are now in a very dangerous position..... Goal difference will count for nothing if we dont start picking up points.

The board should be giving it serious thought if loser Lumsden and hissyfit Hislop have the capabilities as a management team to make sure we don't finish bottom.

The board should have acted after 1 point in 3 home games and no goals.

Management team isn't up to the task, bring in Dick Campbell till the end of the season then look for applications for the managers position unless of course Campbell wins all the remaining games.
