Statement pretentious when it states that Ferguson’s remarks are "damaging to the Scottish game as a whole". What fuckin nonsense and ironic in that while complaining over Ferguson’s remarks they in turn attempt to discredit him to Scottish football, petty and childish. No doubt Ferguson was wrong in what he said but the Arbroath board should have acted above it and not copied it with a tit for tat.

CityDave94 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Surely Arbroath fans aren't stupid enough to fall for that? If Arbroath beat Queen's Park certainly not one of them would on the match thread or on this one ever tell Big Dunc to GIRFUY. Surely not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaten by 5 goals at home by a team that had only 1 point out of their previous four games seems to give some substance to Fergusons remarks on Arbroath 'players downing tools on their club and manager' after relegation confirmed. Doubt we'll see a Statement from the Arbroath Board. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we stay up, I would be slightly sad to lose Arbroath, probably one of the better away days in the league, plus their fans aren't really that bad, also taking into account the absolute binfire that replaces them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supercaleyman94 Posted Saturday at 19:36 Share Posted Saturday at 19:36 Heard a very concerning rumour today that players didn't get paid this week. If this is true no wonder most the team looked half arsed today. We are so fucked & if we go down it'll be catastrophic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt we'll see a Statement from the Arbroath Board. I think your club should reflect on your own efforts at doing enough over a season to avoid being flushed down the pan. Not least given that the only reason you're still in contention on the final day is down to three points provided by, err, a ten man Arbroath team just three weeks ago. Or maybe you think it's unfair that every other club gets to play the only team worse than you too.

Thankfully this is mitigated by having a squad full of loanees where it'll have no impact then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We jumped the gun on a signing and apologised to Airdrie, who put out a statement. Your manager was a fud, so your club apologises to Arbroath, who put out a statement. Wonder who will need to apologise to Inverness tomorrow! Well as we are more than likely to put out a reserve team against Queens Park next week we better get the apology off to big Dunc & Co now. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could be paying a certain percentage of their wages though like 20% but would like to think that the parent clubs are covering the costs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same time though we only have ourselves to blame. We have to deal with our own business & we haven’t done that Can't really blame Arbroath their season is done & not in a good way. Their players aren't going to be diving into tackles giving 100% when they're probably working a part time job during the week as well they just want this season done. Also sounds like the dressing room is a shambles right now. Edited Sunday at 13:05 by Supercaleyman94 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play offs will be tricky I can see us beating Montrose but Hamilton or Alloa worry me especially Hamilton I can actually see Airdrie beating QP or at least holding them to a draw but we've won at home 6 times this season in all competitions so I'm far from confident we'll get the result we need even if Airdrie do us a favour 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have previous, didn't go that well for Falkirk but I see they are finally coming back to the championship. Probably 1 v 1 on Saturday, so how would that suit you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
