Buzz Lichtyear Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 It'll be some effort from Stranraer to edge us out with only games against the rest of the top half of the table left for them.Let's just hope the form picks up again for a decent run at the playoffs. If they started next week, We'd be in bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeodhasXD Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Arbroath fans who decided it was too expensive gate prices have missed two fantastic games of football. I'm hoping to see us pump Raith now and then put the bogey men Dumbarton down so hopefully we'll not see you again but on the off chance we can get the second weeks playoffs here at home I do enjoy that more. Good luck in the playoffs all the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Housecaptain Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Two weeks running we have blown a 2 goal lead due to horrendous defending and goalkeeping. Come on guys we just need 1 more point to qualify for the play-offs and let this be next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afc_36_0 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Both teams r where they deserve to be, not quite as good as the 2 full time clubs but better than the rest. Im still undecided whether i’d prefer 3rd or 4th [emoji848] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 ours was just as bad first half anyway ! Exactly Defences on top doesn’t make for entertaining games, thought the second goal was absolutely brutal defensively from us but other than that we were alright, just a very open end to end game Still can’t believe how jammy that winner was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im still undecided whether i’d prefer 3rd or 4th [emoji848] Agree with this. Looks like it could be Raith Rovers/Ayr or Dumbarton and to be honest, probably fancy Dumbarton a bit more. However, got to beat them all & I’d hate the attitude of settling for fourth when we should be pushing as high as we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting situation , looking at the prospects though , fourth looks more attractive, that is no slight on dumbarton though they have done extremely well up there and would be a tough game but a winning team are harder to play against , could either team who make the last two playoff places find themselves in a position where losing is preferable ?? .

timlichtie Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 A decent game. We didn't really merit a 2 goal lead but I was happy to take it. Good to see Wallace score again. I thought he was decent. Maybe gets the heavy treatment from defenders but that's his style, getting between them and the ball. Second half I thought we were the better team and could have shaded it. The Alloa goal was a cracking deflection. Neither team should fear the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oweny Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Great game today plenty of determination from both teams . Alloa deserved winners for me. We have to stop giving teams a start on us it's happening too often but a great fightback. Herrington was immense in the middle of the park once again. Once again I cannie believe that Ryan McCord wasn't good enough to make it on to the pitch for Arbroath. One of the greatest wasps of the past decade getting left to rot on the sidelines . Would take him back in a heartbeat. Such a waste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scillybirder Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Anyone know what the crowd was in the Arbroath end? Can add at least 20 for those who ended up in the wrong section due to inept stewards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruitbowl Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Enjoyable game. Excellent response to losing 2 soft goals. Real authority from Hetherington well supported by Robbo.Really like McIntosh from Arbroath. I suspect Pongo is not featuring as much as he should due to being seriously overweight. He seems to have got heavier each season. PH would not have played him in his current physical condition.If this was to end up as the playoffs final both clubs would fancy their chances.
