We can't allow Forfar to overrun us from the start on Saturday. We need our players to be aggressive and press them to put pressure on. Guess the main question is how fit Gillespie currently is. Agree though Wedderburn's lack of pace is a liability and we need to work around that. Saying that, if we stick with a middle three, we have an extra two to compensate rather than just one as we've had much the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baillieinleeds Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 What a load of shite. What are you expecting the SPFL to honestly do here? Play the final game on a Sunday, or a Friday night, or a 12:30 on a Saturday even? Also, when should have last night’s game have been played? There’s a Champions league game on Wednesday night and Europa League on Thursday... Honestly, if you are that so desperate to watch the Champions League or the FA Cup over the rovers, feel free. I’d have watched last nights game over that Liverpool game every day of the week.That was poetry in motion m9. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest, is there likely to be segregation in place on Saturday at Station Park or will we be free to swap ends as is usual? https://forfarathletic.co.uk/item/3739-championship-play-off-semi-final-second-leg Sounds like no segregation to me, no mention of it & it says "entry to the terracing will be gained through the turnstiles at the main block in Carseview Road." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Looks like the uptake on subsidised busses has been good. 3 busses full already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were up against Liverpool v Barcelona last night meaning those who went were denied the chance to watch a classic comeback and then the 2nd leg of the final goes up against the FA Cup final. Madness. That would be one step beyond. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broken Algorithms Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 You'll pay higher prices for games on worse terraces. I'm fine with when it's being played. I'd rather the Saturday than the Sunday, especially as it gives time for the team who get promoted/stay up to celebrate (not us, but still good for the fans). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunday is generally a shite day for a football match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
