theSilverFox Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Fair point that we’re well appointed in midfield but Ness isn’t the only injury prone midfielder we have so happy with the appointment. As already said, we need a striker, we are thankfully well endowed with defenders, the Anderson/Munro partnership is proving to be amazing and up there with the Travis/Whyte partnership which will be available again soon. I always felt the latter two were the best in L1 along with Meechan were, and still are, immense. As fortunate as we are with our first choice keeper, a great defence and midfield, we are lacking upfront, not in effort and industry but a deadly striker would make us unbeatable in this league and very competitive next season if we achieve promotion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he could be very good in a good team but centre midfield is probably our strongest position and as a player he’s quite similar to slater (although obviously not on that level). It’s a good addition but I’m not sure it’s totally necessary Moore had a great game tonight, energy levels right to the end, I watched him last season and he just didn't fire, hopefully Gary can make him tick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridie Vision Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Woo! Team of the Week for Stef. While Slater is obviously the star man for Forfar this season, Stef is probably up there. 2nd best outfield player at the club? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t tend to do much wrong and always gives 100%. Decent players too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going to lie, I thought he was a pretty underwhelming signing based on feedback from other fans but you can't argue with his goal return and he brings a lot more to the team too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridie Vision Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Come on let's get some conversation going rather than one post a week! Transfer window open, we all know we need to invest in our forward line so what players' are we likely to attract? Any whispers or rumours? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Steele Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Good to see that Darren Whyte came on for the last 20+ minutes. What was his performance like? Hopefully he's in the starting 11 on Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically though, if Irvine signs a striker it'll be an unproven 18/19 year old on loan from Dundee United or Motherwell, and therefore might not actually be an improvement on Aitken, Shepherd or Doris. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Hilson loan was nothing more than a rumour started by someone’s hopeful wishing, don’t get me wrong, I wish it was a real thing but don’t believe it ever was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, hence my use of emoji. Perhaps after the home game on Saturday Gary may give a wee insight into potential recruitment in his post match interview on Facebook. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Hilson will likely be available at the end of the season as his contract is up and he wasn’t included in our recent glut of renewals. Think he will be here until then though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lwh Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Trav played (and scored) for Edinburgh City as a trialist tonight. Probably means we’ve seen the last of him in a Forfar top sadly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only positives are that he should be playing regularly and that Darren Whyte is back (just working on attaining sharpness). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could’ve became one of what I assume is a very small group of players to win promotion twice with us should we be in league one next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
