Good to see yano back , still needs to drop a certain individual (untouchable)

Nope. Absolute joke, step backwards in my opinion. Ross Campbell back next? Has Pinky written all over it.

went to this as a neutral- a truly dreadful game of football. Both sides were absolutely dire, and players could barely find a team-mate with a pass.

In the first half Stenny only really threatened fromn set pieces but otherwise seemed to favour a bizarre Champions-League Group strategy of soaking up pressure and playing for a point. Fortunately for them Forfar were almost as disjointed, hobbled by an early pulled hamstring for Dale Hilson, and also by Swankie having as poor a game as I have seen for a long time.

Fotheringham had a good game for Forfar with one or two delightful passes. Stenny huffed and puffed and were denied early in the second half by a sprawling save from big Rab at the base of his post. Comedy keeper Greg Fleming nearly cost his side the opener by spilling a routine cross and then having to save smartly, twice, from his own mess. Kader hit in a teasing cross which Denholm was only denied the opener by a flailing block from Stenny's no. 2, with Fleming shitting himself on his goal-line.

Denholm got the only goal late on. I heard the cheer in the car park. By then I had decided that this awful spectacle wasn't worth getting hypothermia for- it was bitterly cold, and frost was thickening on the terrace behind the goal.

That's the third time I have seen Forfar this season and it is hard to credit that that awful, clumsy, error-strewn performance came from the same side that swept Dunfermline aside so stylishly at the beginning of the season, and which rallied to rescue an unlikely point from a derby game at Glebe Park in November. As for Stenny, well, whatever Scott Booth is trying, is isn't working. They have some decent players but are a miserable, disjointed farrago of a team that really don't look like scoring, and which doesn't seem capable of putting three consecutive passes together. They're a surly bunch as well- the players don't appear to like one another very much and there was lots of bickering between them.

Took the words outta ma mouth! Anyone know who ye was?

Anyone know who the Stenny 'trialist' was?

Believe it was ex Brechin and East Fife social media meltdown specialist Darren McCormack.

Frustrated about the game but expected the result.

Extremely pissed off Sean Dickson is hooked every single game after 60-70 minutes when there are passengers in the squad playing worse.
