Not sure this is the best idea..............................lose again tonight and Arbroath go into the play off's with two defeats.

I get he's resting players but it's a gamble.

Don't know and I'm not sure suspensions carry over.

Seems Mr Campbell knows more than me, currently winning 1-0 and have been all over them, according to a mate who's at the game.

Nice to see a Swankie involved for Arbroath.  All they need is a Cargill and the two main names in Arbroath will be represented. Been a few of both have played for Arbroath over the years.

Arbroath 3-0 Morton, great result (87 mins gone) and a superb season.

Played 36, Won 17, Drew 14, lost 5. 

Inverness play Thistle in the first play off games, they will trounce them then it's two massive games to get through against the 11th team from the top league.

Bring it on. :happyclapper

Sorry fancy Inverness to qualify. Hope not against us as we do not have a great record against them.

Always liked Arbroath , my first away game was at Gayfield  , so I would like to see them promoted as long as we stay clear of the play-offs. 

Great results this season , that’s for sure. Great story for the local people too. Done with part-time players as well. Those are the positives but the stadium is well below standard. Mind you, my last visit was some years ago. Maybe it’s all seated and all covered and takes more than 6,000 people by now.

Over 3,000, this is an astounding attendance. :happyclapper

3121 Attendance!
Tonight’s attendance made us very proud as a Club. 3121 on a Friday night was just outstanding!
Thank you to every single fan who stayed behind for selfies and autographs! You were all so patient and understanding!
Michael McKenna was the last player in the line and signed his last autograph at 10.15pm.
Big shout out to the Greenock Morton support too, we hope you all get home safe.
We look forward to welcoming you back on Friday 13th May
C’mon the Lichties

My daughter & granddaughter were down at the game last night, they were amongst the last to leave around 10:15pm.

They got pictures and autographs from most of the players, memories that will last forever. The number of youngsters in attendance should provide supporters for a long long time. 

What the team, club & manager have achieved this season has been backed up by the support.

The players must be elated by the response of the fans,

Arbroath manager Dick Campbell: "Freshened up? That's an understatement - I brought nine players in because I thought about it for two or three nights and thought, what if I play the ones who have been playing every week and they get injured or sent off, and also thought I need to be fair to the rest of the players.

"And they have all sent a clear message to me that they want to be here next season and they are wanting to play - I thought they were excellent. We should have scored more and I am regenerated after being a bit empty after the Kilmarnock game."
