With the season now officially ended, the hard work behind the scenes continues as manager Dick Campbell and his assistant manager Ian Campbell go about rebuilding their squad for the 2018 / 2019 season.
Dick’s experience and reputation in Scottish Football means he always has players desperate to play for him and his team.
We are fortunate that he has been able to recruit some outstanding individuals and Dick paid credit to the team at the end of season award ceremony by saying they were the best part time squad of players he has ever managed.
We have had several players commit their future to Gayfield next season and we are delighted to announce that Omar Kader has again committed his future to Arbroath FC taking him into his 3rd season at the club.
Unfortunately, the world of football always keeps moving forward and this means that sadly some players move on from Arbroath FC and leave Gayfield.
We would like to thank all the players who pulled on the Arbroath FC shirt during the 2016 / 2017 season.
Thank you to all the players who move on from Gayfield. It has been a pleasure having you and we all wish you the best in your next move.
