Superb from both teams.. Apparently the Rugby Park was given a safety certificate for a capacity of ~14,500 at the start of the season. Arbroath have sold around 2,000 tickets in a stand that holds 4,500. I'm estimating 11,500-12,000 overall. 10,000 would be a good ground, given that it's live on the BBC, though.

faraway saint Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 (edited) I've mentioned a few times that the excellent work the club have done this season has had an astounding effect on the town, and further afield. A key approach has been the younger members of the community, and at this point, it's certainly working. How do you feel when you see the Caird Hospitality Suite filled with hundreds of amazing posters and artwork by the schools and nurseries of Arbroath - PROUD! Thank you to every young girl and boy who took the time to draw a poster for our players and Management Team. We are going to try and make an album of them all to put on Facebook very soon. We read each one and have picked out our favourites to pin on the dressing room wall tomorrow! The future is very bright! THANK YOU ALL!

Population of Kilmarnock around 47000 Population of Paisley around 77000 Must be a hell of a lot more bigots in Paisley than Kilmarnock ☹️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two teams at the top in what is likely to be a title decider. Good to see the “wee team” have such a good following on the day. W6r. Which part of the ground will you be in. Killie or Arbroath?

Sickening... Strangely there's loads of guys from north/east Ayrshire in my work and I've yet to meet a Killie fan... All bigot lovers.

The three I’m talking about usually follow other clubs but go along to Kilmarnock games from time to time. The “cup tie” nature of this one is bringing out what might be called neutrals and each areas people have chosen their local teams. 10/10 for the Arbroath fans who are making the trip. A genuine have to be there moment for their fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted April 22, 2022 Report Share Posted April 22, 2022 Looked like some Killie moron having a pop at Mr Campbell, he doesn't look very happy, although he'll be pissing himself if the score stays the same till the end.
