Bully Wee Villa Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 When the Angus teams finally see sense and get themselves merged, will it be Highland or Lowland League teams that get promoted to the SPFL to fill the gaps? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland North of the Tay is the cutoff point cuntoAlthough that's absolutely ridiculousWe're an hour away from Aberdeen ffs, hour to the Forth Road Bridge and 45 minutes longer to Glasgow. How we are classed as Highland is a mystery. Should only be Elgin and Peterhead. Elgin would be a reasonable trip for us if we were in the HL and they were too and that's 2 hour 45 minutes!!!Not that it matters though the only way the Angus Galacticos are going is up. 2 this year, Montrose in play offs next season. Heard it here first. [emoji12] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Sally Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 #thriving As unquestionably the largest club of the four, and removing your own neo-Nat pity party apologisms and 'wee team' syndrome, don't you think Arbroath ought to be a lot more ambitious and succesful than the other three? Since four leagues was introduced, you're the only ones to have had more than a season at a time upstairs, whilst Alloa and Cowden enjoyed several. Much as i know Clyde supporters now hate talking about the past, and appear to be brainwashed into thinking being good for eight years is something to be ashamed of, there's absolutely no reason for Arbroath not to even consider that locally, a down-on-their-luck United, or bang-average Dundee and Saints, could be within reach competitively, when you see that of the top two divisions, we ourselves have dished out a fair few tankings of most of the teams outwith the established big five/six. Indeed, Saints could be the only team in the Prem next year in a four-area zone (Angus, Tay, Central & Fife), representing sixteen teams.....a whopping 38% of senior clubs in the country. #thriving The Arbroath Thread for this pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If south you go to LL. LL relegates or reprieves sufficient clubs to EOSL & SOSL to stay at a steady 16... HL elects BoD or has a huge bunfight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Haddock Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Bad luck on Lowdon.He has had a setback and is out for the season now.Linton also probably played his last game for Clyde.With only an interim management team in place I wonder who will be making the decision on who goes and who should before red terms for next season.Would be interested to get some word on Eastn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowden on two year deal as is McNeil I think ? Do they think much can be done till you see what league we are in and the budget (would imagine good bit lower) Anyway doubt we will be wanting to retain any more than third of present squad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haufdaft Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Conflicting stories have surrounded next year, from 'definitely lower budget, Poundland players again', to others insisting the players won't even be THAT good, to others simply asking, 'Crisis? What crisis!!'. The fact none of these have been addressed as a matter of urgency, is yet another show of disdain for the clubs future. Do we know that these issues are not being addressed? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfcuk Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 With interim managers and thirteen players out of contract, and no mention of any extensions, the answer to that is clear. If anything, the poor displays of this season should see a squad being assembled as we speak. Regardless of being in the relegation zone. Doubt many of the out of contract will be retained. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Haddock Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I would like to see Linton give us another.What about the interim management team remaining as players? Easton should give us a year out of loyalty if nothing else.I suspect Gormley might be offered terms and who knows Goodwillie might not have any other options. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridgeton Clyde Boy Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I really don't know where Goodwillie could go from here, other than the fact he's a rapist he didn't do anything with Aberdeen, Ross County and Plymouth.. maybe Scottish championship ? after this season would the club give him another year I really don't know 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLClyde Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Disappointed that Lowden and Easton won't play again, was hoping they might just make a couple of games. In terms of next year, would like both of them, Linton, macdonald, McNeil and gormley(based on second half of season performances and returns), all stay. However, I'd hope the manager situation is resolved very early in the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If goodwillie is available I don't see the harm in keeping him. Worth getting the Dundee goalie back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_bully_wee Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 McNiff, Lowdon, McNeil, Johnston and Flynn are all on 2 year deals, I believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
