  1. Really get tired of the old firm excuses by their fans and the media when their teams get beat by another Scottish team!  Its total arrogance and a how dare they, that they need to find an excuse that gives them a rationale of why they were beat instead of the other team just being better on the day!  

    Anyway I will start off the tombola of excuses with 'it was the surface of the pitch to blame'!

    A 3pm KO on a Sunday, is a bit brutal for County fans going to Killie.

    It's the only game with much riding on it this weekend but the only result that'll keep County safe is a victory. A defeat (depending on what DU do) could even see County relegated.

    I'll be driving down for my first visit to Rugby Park so any advice on where to park near the ground would be appreciated too👍

    Tescos, 5 minute walk to the ground from there.

    Can't complain, started brilliant and got the goal and sat back (we all would).

    Never at any point did Killie really threaten, yet at the same time thought Arbroath defended brilliantly and Gaston had been excellent.

    Bang, a goal and then a struggle to get back in to it, and bang another goal to the deserved winners and well done Kilmarnock!

    Arbroath - what a season. We could have won it, we had shitey spells of points dropped (at home too) the same time, they always seemed to bounce back with a unfanicied win here and there whilst Killie were stumbling around pished in the dark ballsing it up at the same time.

    The playoffs will be tough, and you never know. Not too sound pessimist, but everything about this felt like a cup final today for Arbroath. Getting an extra few games off for them is a nice reward but potentially beating an SPFL team over two-legs, whilst doable feels like a bit of a mammoth task, tbh. This team has a spirit though and I'll never put anything past them.

    Hugely gutted. Will probably never see that again, tbh, so there's an element of so close...but once that falls away in a few days, it's the playoffs, I put nothing past this team and to sound even more goon like, watch them play another cup final(s) in front of a packed-out Gayfield ; a three-digit away support ; more media exposure for not just the team, fans and club, but my home town that doesn't get too favorable press these days outwith the local Angus/Dundee area, IME. 

    No matter what happens, I know fans of the club who have been through thick and think - luckily I did a bit of traveling/living abroad at this time - didn't experience much of the major lows ; apart from the Queens Park Div 3 playoff home loss in 07? And even that, was a bit of a cup final. To have gone from that, to the last 5-6 years is just unthinkable and brought some amazing highs. If it feels good for me (a bit-part fan) I can't imagine how it feels for the folks who have gone to every game for decades!

    Havering enough, but Lichties, have a great night tonight. Killie fans, you too ; but Lichties mostly.

    Great post and so much profound honesty, good luck in the play offs, you deserve it!
