I want to say it was Sellars or Byers or someone like that... Barry Sellers. Think it measured 70 yards. Scored against Michael White who we later signed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were excellent that day, but those conditions were absolutely insane. That was probably a bit of a high point in the Duffy-era. That squad for the second-half of the 2018/19 season were a joy to watch. The guy calling Ross Forbes a "Weegie c*nt" as he's fouled for the penalty cracks me up every time I hear it Aye that’s the one - took what felt like an age to get that league won. 13 points ahead or something after a win over Raith sometime in February Pish day but much happier times - Hamilton and Gold both part of our squad that day and Interim Gaffers the morn and ToB still our captain like he was that day too… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always get him and Byers confused for some reason. I can never remember which one played for Arbroath and/or Forfar. Think I also remember Andy Geggan scoring a wind-assisted screamer for us at Gayfield. Albeit from much closer range.

Yep, Wikipedia has him as Montrose (on a brief loan), Forfar and Brechin. Think I just always get the two confused because of the similarish sounding names and the fact both played for most of the Angus clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t bother me this, Tbf, as long as we played at Gayfield, wore maroon and white and were called Arbroath 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
