Everyone at Arbroath FC would like to send their best wishes to for former Lichtie Craig Watson who was forced off early in the first half today with what looks like a serious knee injury.
We are absolutely shocked and saddened to hear that one or two individuals of our own support in the main stand were disrespectful to Craig and the East Fife staff as he received treatment.
Arbroath Chairman Mike Caird said;
“I am really upset and angry to hear that Craig Watson suffered disrespect and abuse by certain individuals in the main stand.
We are a community club and whilst there is a competitive nature in football, the health and well being of all players on that pitch is fundamental.
Craig is a great lad, a good friend of the club and was outstanding for us at his time at Gayfield.
We send our thoughts to Craig and wish him a speedy recovery.”
