# You want East Stilingshire FC...
...for the worst fanbase. A cople of hundred supporters at each game - if they're lucky.

Funnily enough, I missed both Falkirk games at Gayfield this season due to b3ta events.

# lets get statistical

# They're not really gone...
...just rebranded as Airdire United.

Was that not in the midst of supporter protests though? I seem to remember a few walk-outs and boycotts around that time.

I think any of the Scottish lower league teams has potential to be the worst supported.

# Ohhh....
...I've just remembered that Arbroath hold the world record score for a competetive Assosiation Football match.

36-0 versus Bon Accord.

That's over a goal every three minutes.

# It's a shame they have gone...
...used to be bitter local rivals of ours.

Would rather be able to beat then on the pitch than see them disappear altogether.

# Yes, it is the same with Man Ciry
it was funny when they werein Division 2 playing Macclesfield but i'm glad they're back

# Yep...
...Airdrieonians went bust and lost their place in the Scottish Football League.

Clydebank FC were going the same way, but a consortium bought them over and moved the team to the stadium in Airdire. Clydebank were renamed Airdrie United.

Coincidentally enough my team, Falkirk, are looking to groundshare with Airdrie next season while our new stadium is built.
