A performance so bad he was dropped in favour of a 19 year old loanee who was just signed this morning? Not buying it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also love to see the recruitment analysis that led us to sign Willoughby - he’s so bad I’m actually starting to believe we should have kept Rose. Any hope I had that Chalmers might respond the right way to his recent kick up the backside were well and truly dashed today. Would much rather we’d thrown on Amartey or Tomlinson than McGeady right enough - at least there’s a possibility of him being pacey and direct. Been impressed with Brown, but there’s only so much you can do with such a chronically poor group of players. I really hope we don’t pay the price for not strengthening in January. I mean, shouldn't really be surprised if Willoughby turns out to be another dud. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s either a problem with Albinson and the club or a massive call by Brown that has effectively ended Albinson career at Ayr. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No_Problemo Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I don’t think Jermaine Hylton ever signed for anyone? Six goals and an assist in fifteen, playing across wide midfield and up front for Arbroath. Would give us a bit of quality that we are lacking, and impact our starting side straight away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith had 3 shots on goal in the first half and all 3 were the exact same ball over his head that he stood and watched. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly didn't have much success today, but neither did Murphy. I agree with those who have commented that Willoughby looks hopeless - I don't imagine he will get much more game time. Would bite your hand off for a draw on Tuesday evening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I really hope Brown shakes things up behind the scenes as well as on the pitch. There was always a suspicion our problems went beyond Lee Bullen - there is clearly something structurally wrong at the club when we keep going out and signing utter dross like Willoughby. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - he just needs to be allowed to play through it. Hopefully Brown doesn’t do anything stupid like play Bryden over him again. A poor Chalmers performance is pretty much just the same as a Bryden performance in wide midfield anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re Sanders. He seems to be one of these players every club has where a lot of the fans think the manager is off his head for not giving him a chance. I’ve personally never been impressed and I think League One is probably his level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrutd1910 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 That performance was as bad as anything right up there when Bullen was here,there are too many poor players at the club,goes to show how poor this league is now that were not in Arbroath's position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of the team on the park today, I’d keep McGinty, Sylla and Dowds. Wouldn’t be the least bit fussed about seeing any of the rest of them next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
