1320Lichtie Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 Well.... This is going to be tough going. Same team for me, Prunty in for Jimmy. Please do not f**k this up. Expect a big away support through. Great place for a day out and hopefully by 5pm we'll have done the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A big away support? 148 at us last week, Forfar looked like they had a wee bit more than you today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, well Forfar could've won the league today brains. We came to you when we were 2nd.We can now win the league next week, it's in our own hands, of course it'll be a big away support.

1320Lichtie Posted April 29, 2017 Author Share Posted April 29, 2017 Also, 148 (if that's even right) is about 50 percent of your average home crowd Al. [emoji23] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope the Albion put on a better performance next Saturday at Forthbank than was served up today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yip, all irrelevant. its your league to lose now, Stirling nothing to play for. We deservedly beat them recently and Edinburgh city beat them today so surely it's a formality?

Don't count your chickens before they hatch, yes we were poor today so were City but at home, big crowd (I hope) we might just surprise you, then again ?

1320Lichtie Posted April 29, 2017 Author Share Posted April 29, 2017 surely it's a formality? Ha It is most definitely not mate. All to play for, despite what Forfar fans say. Early goal for them and it'll be pressure on us. It's going to be a terrible afternoon for the nerves. Guys in that team that have been there and done it, and on the sidelines and in the changing rooms there's not many more people I'd prefer than DC, the coaches, and even guys like Douglas and Prunty. Experienced heads. If we could get an early goal that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comment was that the Cowdenbeath safety officer told the poster that 'she' had counted 148. Strange that because I was watching the male steward counting the fans and when he finished he spoke to another steward. He said something but with a shrug of his shoulders and a gesture that looked like 'thereabouts'. I spoke to him at halftime and asked how many he counted and he said '152 or 155' again with a shrug of his shoulders. That count was completely unscientific as people were moving about, going and coming from the toilet and pie shop, and disregarded those who were stragglers from the pub. But as 1320 says, no one cares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB_Bino Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Expect Stirling will have to open the other stand Think that'll be a given. You would of thought that, with everything that's at stake, Arbroath will bring everyone and anyone down for the day. I didn't query the comment on that thread last week as I couldn't be bothered.

BinoBalls Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I can't see past an Arbroath win next weekend... we have pretty much given up and we've taken two pastings recently at home. Arbroath are better away than they are at home. Big away support will be down. Prediction: Albion 0 Arbroath 2 Crowd 1103 (including 644 from Arbroath) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Early goal to settle the nerves is needed. Can't see Dick changing the team so Jimmy Scott will start again. To be fair he had a terrific last 5 minutes yesterday when we were trying to run out the clock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted April 30, 2017 Author Share Posted April 30, 2017 How much does the away stand at Stirling hold? It says on the ground guide that 2508 seats in total, both stands look identical, so 1250 on each side. No extra stand will be required if that's the case... well I don't think so anyway. Absolutely no idea what to expect.Had about 900 odd at Forfar I'd guess but that was only 20 minutes along the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
