1320Lichtie Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 If Arbroath lose the 4 games required and rovers win then those 9 goals of a difference will quickly disappear with just single goal loses. It's still 5 games at 13 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mexico Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 It’s fair to question the bottle of this Arbroath team at this point, as we have been pretty shit since the turn of the year, we’ve been lucky Rovers haven’t capitalised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokie29 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Still have lots of faith in the team but we have to start getting back to winning ways and more crucially the way we were playing in the first half of the season. Whatley over gold, denholm in for Kader and McKenna and Wallace up top is needed for this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, if someone said to me when leaving Gayfield in December that Arbroath would go on the run they have I would have been delighted. Just so happens we have been worse.

What bottle, you won it. Even at our best, which isn’t even that good. You’ve still won the league at a canter. The best and strongest team in the division and very well done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Yeah, if someone said to me when leaving Gayfield in December that Arbroath would go on the run they have I would have been delighted. Just so happens we have been worse. Yep, the chance has been there. If we’d won every game since Gayfield we’d be three behind going into this match, and even allowing for dropped points - because we’ve played some decent teams - we should be looking at winning to get within five or less, which is what seeing out relatively routine looking victories against Brechin and Forfar would’ve done for us. Suddenly a title race is on. We obviously have to win to maintain a vague outside hope. Arbroath have been on the ropes the past few weeks and have extended their lead. Incredibly frustrating.

timlichtie Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Dick Campbell has used recent games to try to integrate his January signings, with limited success. I expect him to revert to the formation and personnel that took us to the top. The gap will narrow but we should have enough to finish top.The chasing pack will all take points off us but off each other too.A draw on Saturday I’m hoping.

Beachbum Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I'd be tempted to play Jack Smith, but you can bet Liam Buchanan will get the nod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Can’t see there being more than 1300 home fans for this to be totally honest. I’m not that arsed for it, I might change my mind on Saturday morning. I get that the club needs to big the game up and try remain positive but it’s pretty tough when we’re so many points behind.

Hammerafc Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 The team picked itself at the start of the season. Now we seem to chop and change all the time. We need a consistent starting 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big lichtie Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 totally agree mate the team knew there jobs knew the guys what runs they would make etc. whatley gets injured out the team pongo comes on scores doris getting fitter scoring goals. the team looked at the bench and knew what to expect from these guys.so now with dc latest signings who the f..k knows and he will play them no doubt on saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFC360PUNK1320 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 My team for Saturday :- DJ THOMSON LITTLE TOB HAMILTON GOLD WHATLEY SWANKIE LINN WALLACE MCKENNA Leaves some very good players on the bench to bring on if changes are required. The last couple of times Pongo seems to play well there and Spence being an ex-player as well plus you know what you will get from Stevie D.
