Oh yeah, forgot about Tapping, he was okay for us, better than Ouzy and Shanley for sure. In my opinion I would've been playing him alongside Andy instead of Anderson, but yes, best of luck to him I hope Travs is enjoying his football, plus I also think it's a lot nearer to where he lives, so less travelling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loon From Outta Toon Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Confirmed on Forfar Facebook page Scott Shepherd & Archie Thomas are away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafc1885 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Not surprised to see both leave. Thomas, as has been well mentioned, hasn’t had a fair crack at things this season when he’s been fit. He looked good this season when he did get games but the lack of minutes he got in the second half of the season was baffling. Shepherd just isn’t a proper goalscorer unfortunately. He will run himself into the ground and actually challenge for things and I feel he was a better option than Matty but without goals he wasn’t going to be the main striker. No mention of Lewis Sanderson or the forever injured Jamie Ness. Not fussed about Lewis as he would just be a back up, would prefer Ness to go elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Steele Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I take it if Charlie Adam does come here it's to team up with Harkins in the Community Trust Walking Football league and not the Forfar first team? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridie Vision Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Guess the (8th) Hilly return will have to wait. https://www.arbroathfc.co.uk/dale-hilson-contract-extension/ It says several clubs were interested in his signature, wonder if Forfar were genuinely one of those clubs? Or, if it was just fan speculation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought he'd maybe end up at Montrose 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridie Vision Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 We've got Dundee again! It feels like we've had them in the Betfred/Premier Sports Cup for the last 5 years. Also, I noticed it's no longer split with a north & south section, so a midweek trip to Stranraer is possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the idea of the split but it was getting pretty tedious with the same teams every year.Aye, Dundee again though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlipperyP Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 I see that we are laying a new carpet for next season. Is this the same felt but new or an upgrade? Any transfer rumours? Is Harkins hanging up the boots? As for the League cup draw and games, good for the supporters that both away games are the least travelling needed. Hard group, ok no Prem teams, but the only group with 3 Championship teams and no league 1. Good pre season workout if anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitch: It is an upgrade (5G or 6G astro) supposedly the same quality as the Nou Camp training pitches. Rumours: Nope, not heard anything. Harkins: He'll be our star player next season I think him and Irvine will both register as players again. League Cup: If we beat Stranraer and manage to draw one of the other games will be as good as it gets I reckon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irvine still on the piss in Magaluf 3. You just made me a little sick in the mouth 4. Nae beat one of the bigger team to make us feel good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a quick Google - so probably not 100% accurate, because I have nothing better to do, 5G and 6G artificial pitches are variations of 4G pitches something about the difference in rubber infill. So I guess you're both kind of right, it's slightly different but it is also partly marketing bumph. Whatever the case Forfar will have a nice new pitch, but will it help us win the league, I doubt it'll make any difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilly Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Had heard at the last game of the season up there he was looking to move back to a team in the central belt due to work so there may be some credibility in that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
