Not sure what part of “nobody could legislate for the chances missed and the red card” blames Kell, but having your two top scorers on the bench (one because of injury) was a gamble, and given we missed so many chances you could argue it was the wrong choice.

Where to start. Kell clearly took a gamble with starting line up and resting a few of what you would consider starters, however no one can legislate for the chances we missed, and the red card. That being said we should have won the game and didn’t, but hopefully a timely kick up the butt that we can take nothing for granted in this league.

Millen pulled up when running towards the ball, so definitely an injury of some sort and regarding substitution of Sole could be either or both, didn’t have his greatest 45, needs to move the ball on quicker.

I won’t be hard on the boys as they have been brilliant so far this season. We gifted them their first two goals, and outwith our mistakes they rarely threatened. Devines distribution from the back was awful, and the wind defo influenced that. Spoony had one of these days when things just didn’t go his way. But our attacking intent was only on show in short spells. Kell was giving Bav a very hard time for not running the channels, which was harsh IMO as balls to him were lacking in quality, and fighting for the ball isn’t his forte, whereas his finish showed where his strength is.

Very good performance, generally passed the ball well, should have won by more as were miles better than them today. Referee was simply atrocious, I just hope their screaming Number 10 (Shanks) wasn’t too badly hurt🙄.

Just bought a season ticket for my son (his first) and I ( first for years) and delighted to support the club. Won’t make many (if any) games due to other football related activities on a Saturday, but happy to help anyone, for whatever reason, who is unable to get a ticket.

This is when I am glad our previous manager didn’t question Arbroaths ‘professionalism ‘ last year.

Fantastic performance today against a poor Cove Rangers outfit( might be we made them look that way). Bray was fantastic throughout and a real threat , really sad we will lose him, but wish him all the best. Although results went our way today, I have no doubt we have the players in our team to get ourselves where we need to be.

Hi All I purchased an adult ticket and a kids ticket for away end, but due to a change in my son’s schedule I can no longer go. Happy for someone else to get the use of the tickets. Please let me know.

Having got home and had time to reflect. £200k, £2m, £2.50. The value is irrelevant, you can’t buy desire and a will to win. We just don’t have either.

Heartbroken and Embarrassed. A totally broken club

I was replying to the get real part of your quote. answer my question, are you happy with a point today? Ferguson is manager by default because we can’t afford to pay him off. Added to my earlier points, everyone back at corners, especially when we had a man extra, would love to know the thinking behind that. Good opportunity to spring a counter one would think. fwiw, this is not exaggerating anything, these are the facts as they occurred today. He was a big part of what got us relegated, spent what little money we had this year on a below average left back (and his own son) while alienating our better youth players. The list is endless.

Should we happy that our full time team managed to prize a 1-1 draw away from the plucky part timers of Montrose?(who played with 10 for 45 mins) This was reality. Will do nothing with Ferguson at the helm.

Can’t fault the team for effort, but tactically we are going to struggle under Ferguson. So pedestrian in the transition from defence to attack, allowing Montrose to organise themselves adequately prior to us finally getting into their final third. After sending off, we kept a back four against their one striker, and never once considered changing shape to really go for it. Had a fair few efforts on goal (especially from outside the box) but we didn’t carve them open nearly often enough. A disappointing draw in the end

Just finished listening to TWS 136 miles from home. Firstly, fair play to Ross Morrison for coming out and speaking to the fans. Irrespective of what we made of what he said, plenty of folk would have remained hidden. A couple of things sprung to mind in all the financial turmoil he described; 1. Who decided to give Duncan Ferguson a 3 year deal? 2. Who decided that when the costs of digs was so expensive, that we should sign a huge number of loan players and add to that cost? Given the board watched the turgid football we played last year and have now confirmed that Duncan Ferguson is manager for next season, and given everything else that has happened, how are we going to entice any fans to get back to the ground? Congrats to the guys at TWS for keeping it calm and civil.
