SPFL Week in Numbers
Our win over Brechin City made sure we made the SPFL @SPLStats weekly feature.
5 – Arbroath remain 10 points clear at the top of Ladbrokes League 1 after thumping rivals Brechin City 5-1 at Glebe Park.
The Red Lichties have won five consecutive league matches for the first time since September-October 2014.
It was their biggest derby win over City in almost 50 years – the last time they beat Brechin by a four-goal margin was a 5-1 success in September 1969.
On that day, just like on Saturday, Arbroath had five different scorers – Jimmy Jack, Tommy Ward, Harry Campbell, Jim Cant and an Alastair Littlejohn own goal.
