🇱🇻🇱🇻Arbroath vs Thistle🔴🟡 - 23rd March 2024
Housecaptain replied to R&Y99's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Less of that attitude please, that is what Raith said and you saw what happened to them. -

I thought Tam O'brien signed on for 5 years last season. -

I think Garston should be back in the goals on Friday against Raith as according to Queens fans he was a bomb scare for AFC which matches up with the Hibs fans description whom I spoken to in Edinburgh. If we have to pay for him sitting on the bench then so be it. Our survival and respect are greater than him. -

I would just like to say to one and every AFC fan who travelled to Hampden tonight, well done I know how you feel. Remember coming home in a supporters bus from Stenhousemuir in 1958 when we were beaten 7-0 but still got promoted, I was heartbroken. -

In my 7+decades supporting Arbroath I have witnessed several times when the Club has been as low as now, however this is not the time to be jumping the ship. McIntyre may not be the man for the job but let us be clear the seeds of the present dilemma we're sown by the previous manager. -

Sorry to hear that Ali Adams has gone, agree he never let us down and did his best, was behind the Raith goal when his rocket flew into the net. Hope you find a new club soon and Thanks. -

Lot of sense on here about what Dick latterly got wrong. However as regards signings, Scott Stewart would be my number one target, think Garston might give up playing and concentrate on the day job at Rangers. -

The ref chalked off 2 good goals for Thistle which were clearly not off-side. -

I was standing approximately 3ft from Dick when he was confronted by an Arbroath fan about our performance and at no time did I witness anyone spitting at him or near him. He was then ushered away by the Spartan stewards. Can anyone really believe that someone spat at Dick and he turned the other cheek. My respect for Dick has diminished with this statement and like other fans state that he is merely endeavouring to cover up for his failings which were a blow to his hubris. -

As long as Mckenna and Scott Stewart are not two who may be on his radar. -

I remember being at an Airdrie game approximately 15 years ago and they were going round with plastic buckets asking fans to contribute to prevent them going bust, a few weeks later they did. -
Arbroath v Ayr battle for the bottom
Housecaptain replied to ryanayr1987's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
It seems funny that when teams from Glasgow or elsewhere are playing at Arbroath and the weather is bad that the game is cancelled early in the day eg Raith and Patrick Thistle who are full time yet Arbroath who are part time are treated with disdain, typical SPFL. -

Today's Daily Record has Dick Campbell as a candidate for the Ayr United managers vacancy, wonder if he will be at Somerset Park tonight? -

Knowing the SPFL, they will wait until AFC are at least in Glasgow before they decide. -

It may be a good thing with the injuries we have. -

Watched the game and Dunfermline were pitiful, same applied to Dundee United when they played Queens several weeks ago. That was Queens first win since defeating us on the 19th of August. -
Rovers v Lichties - 30 Dec, 2023
Housecaptain replied to TxRover's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Feel great, just boarded the bus home in the Capital and I met people who know I support Arbroath and they congratulated me on our result today, they also were in a group earlier tonight who knows Ali Adams and were speaking about his brilliant goal today -

That is now, not when it was first mooted about 10 years ago. -

It was going to cost the Club £25k just to comply with the SFA requirements for running the Youth Team before paying any players or travel costs etc. -
Rovers v Lichties - 30 Dec, 2023
Housecaptain replied to TxRover's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
That rules me out as I don't know how to use it, last time against Spartans I had to go down to their ground and complain as I was expecting an email, will Raith be selling tickets at the ground if I do come to the game. -

I was of this opinion at the game at Gayfield and felt the Club should have appealed the booking. -

Brilliant result where we have never been that successful. Bit of luck against Norton and Raith and we would have been another 2 points to the good. Well done to the players and manager. -

What was annoying is that we were up the park and somehow lost the ball and they poured forward in numbers, scoring a somewhat scrappy goal.
