Anyone want a laugh go look at the Raith forum, 

McCords shite and we will struggle with Finn Graham in midfield next year, 

 

 

Spent the last 20 minutes in hysterics reading some of that nonsense. Being beat by a bunch of part timers who are seemingly strolling this league is obviously getting to some of them. Or is it the fact that the Methil mob are closing them down & looking to finish ahead of them as well.

Michael McKenna said last week that since he signed we have never lost two in a row, really think last January was where we started building momentum to get to where we are now.

After checking since then in the league; I think

Played 41
Won 26
Drew 10
Lost 5

14 months of football and we have lost just 5 league games, less league games than the likes of Man City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich have lost in the same time period

We have been spoilt rotten

Cannae believe some of the p#sh you read on those forums.

The Red Lichties are running away with the league (although i still take it one game at a time) we have some of the best players we have ever had wearing the maroon shirt, we have a great Board at the club and  superb Management team YET you still get some "fans" slating some of the players and already saying who should get punted next season etc??

Surely lets enjoy what we have done and enjoy the run-in which hopefully ends up with another Championship, SUPPORT EVERY player who puts on the famous Arbroath FC shirt and then after the season ends and if you do not think player "X-Y-Z" is not good enough for hopefully the step up then that is fine but to start stating this during the season is an absolute joke imo as those same players are reading this codswallop so what are they thinking of the fans who supposedly support the club they play for?

C'MON THE RED LICHTIES.

We’ve been really fortunate in terms of injuries but looks like a few key ones have cropped up all at once. As Dick says, Hamilton is the biggest concern since we have no obvious cover there. But we have a good squad and the players will have to adapt.

 

Saw criticism of Donnelly and Kadir at East Fife. True there were some aspects that need improving but Donnelly’s goal was an excellent reaction and he showed glimpses of the clever No 10. But balls up in the air are clearly not his thing. As for Kadir, he’s always solid gets up and down the park and without his alertness and speed to be first to ball after the penalty save we would have lost that game - a critical clearance. Maybe some fans expect too much.

 

On the subject of players subject to criticism, hopes Wallace makes a speedy recovery.

 

Were any of these injuries down to the plastic pitch, albeit a much better version compared with the ones of old?

DC in the Courier saying Hammy can't play 'till his scan results come through also said he was the best defender in the league,not far wrong there definitely one of the best.
If he has broken his foot the he will be out for the rest of the season.

Leaves us very light at the back.
