    Almost speechless!

    As the game went on, we looked less and less likely to come out as the winners. But someone came up with a wee bit of magic and Shankland added the movement that had been missing for the previous 88 minutes. All the pieces were there all game, but why did it take so fecking long!

    And singling out Stanton today is lunacy! There is no way he was the worst today, and from someone so positive, i would have thought you would be backing every player who put on our shirt!

    the defence is our Achilles heel for sure GB...especially when you have to move Butcher in there to cover.

    As for today just cannot understand how RN set us up.....it was very obvious we had to move the ball quickly to create space to get in behind the smokies due to their earlier results, pace, direct running and width was needed.

    happy we got out of jail this time though

    Wonder what the stats are like when the pitter pattering the ball around the back 5 is taken out the possession?

    Was Frans any worse than what we have, yet Neilson couldn't wait to get rid of him. Then Connolly who has been pretty poor since he signed gets injured which means he has to use the rest of his budget which was going to be used for Freir, to bring in a player that has hardly played in the last year the due to injury.
    This same player was not even in the squad today.

    Still think we were lucky to win today no matter what some are saying on here. Our defence worries me though.
    A bit of reality at last!

    Won't make any difference to the shots, shots on target (they still only had one), or corners. 🤔

    Was definitely one of the most annoying things about today

    No one is saying it was a good display from United, it's more how anyone can say Arbroath deserved to win or were robbed is beyond me though, just not the case, you don't deserve to win just because you are the underdog and score first

    Championship is our level so any win is important and to be enjoyed in the league, there are no mug teams like brechin the other season, when you are top and looking to bounce back from a set back then you take any kind of result..a wins a win when going for promotion

    Can see us being better next week though,we will need to be if we take three pts then we are away to Alloa while Ayr host Inverness, game at a time though..

    Generally, it's mostly positive stuff just now on the whole, the table looks good
