We've always been too nice. Agreed. Happy to please opposition supporters/board even if it means upsetting their always loyal support. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club will say it’s down to policing/stewarding and leave it as is In fairness, we've done it before, given the away fans the corner of the terracing and only half the end enclosure. But I agree with you. Most of the time, too nice. Edited April 14, 2023 by ExiledLichtie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, last season, did we not limit Raith to just some of the end, separated by a couple lines of fences? We got 3 of the 4 corners. I mind Raith fans trying to chuck bins over the segregation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton last season as well. It was midweek. Think it was the 2-2 game we scored a very late penalty to get the point 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win tomorrow and it would require a monumental feck up from us plus Cove and/or Accies to suddenly find great form. If Cove lose tomorrow even a draw at Raith would be ok for us. If Accies then lose on Tuesday v ICT then beating Cove next Saturday would be enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hetherington in for Hammy has been fairly seamless. If Adarkwa is fit and able to alternate with Hilson then I feel we have enough to see this season out. The playoffs give me the fear looking at the likely opposition. I’d love to avoid them. All in our hands. Hilson been good but I feel like we’re a much better team with Adarkwa however he’s clearly struggling fitness wise. Without him as a target man and someone to bring us up the park I feel like we are much less of a threat. Why I’d like to see Stewart and El Mhanni or Bobby on the wings and Balde/Dow and McKenna in the middle. All in our hands now though and we’ve got an experienced bunch of guys Today could be one of they special days, especially considering how tough this seasons been. A win would be absolutely huge Boys got to be right up for it, we should have an edge. No matter what Ian Murray says sub consciously the players will know there’s not much on the line. That might help them and let them play with a bit of freedom mind you but if we get stuck right into them and be horrible hopefully we can grind 3 points out Balde so important today they’ve got a cracking midfield. Also now we know a win really should keep us safe I would like to see us go for it and start with El Mhanni or Bobby left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broath Boy Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 So, 3 games left and in our hands but committee, we need to squeeze every ounce out of the opposition in the remaining games, simply, Cove supporters must be put in the main stand, look at us away supporters punted to four corners of the ground to appease the opposition, well it stops now Arbroath virtually all over the ground, 12th man and all that, no Arbroath good guys, but time to be hard committee, town is proud, but even prouder if letting fans behind goals celebrate goals, “Smokies as one”. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokerson Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 I don’t think we’ll ever see a player/captain as good as O’Brien again. He just never seems To break sweat and delivers time And time again when we need him. An absolute leader in every sense of the word 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agreed. I'd let them have a corner at a push, but we need both goals and free movement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both incredible players. Best I’ve seen play for Arbroath is Nouble hands down then would have Bobby second 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
