Will go to the game but, with all the turmoil at Station Park, I'm not expecting much.

That and we don't seem to have a midfield to speak of.

But then there's always a glimmer of hope.

 

Fourth time already that we will have played Montrose and have won two of them but no don't expect much and if we go behind early can see it being a looong afternoon.

Looking forward to this one but we have to be careful can't be too over confident as Forfar do have some very good individuals.Hilson is a big threat so we need to keep the shackles on him along with Travis at set pieces.Going into this game sky high in confidence though and with Forfar with no manager what better time to play them.

Looks as if it will be Smith & Irvine will be making the decisions for Saturday. Even if a new manager is announced tomorrow, there's not much they can influence in the time available.

Doubt they'll announce it tomorrow.  

 

More likely interviews next week and an appointment following that.

A few years ago this is exactly the type of game we would lose. 5 wins on the bounce facing the bottom club who are in a bit of a crisis. Nailed on defeat.
Now I expect a tough game but a win puts us 9 off the bottom and looking up instead of down. Big opportunity to make strides to safety and a 3-1 home win.
Just a shame JW has gone before it as there is the chance of a reaction from Forfar.

Well, Jim Weir has a full house. Hes left all 4 Angus clubs in the shit.

Despicable man.

Hopefully both teams continue their current runs. Mo playing well and getting the results they deserve and Farfar struggling.  A 9 point gap even at this early stage in the season would be a welcome cushion given our start to the season.

Cant see it being as straight forward as  the form suggests.

2-1 to the Mo.

Easy win. Montrose weren't at 100% and carried two passengers but were largely untroubled  (a short period of sitting in at 2-0 aside). Could have had more on a more clinical day.

As for Forfar, the form table doesnt lie. They were a complete mess (the 3rd goal was a shocker, unforgivable at a semi-pro level) and need to get a competent manager in asap, either to kickstart that team or turn them over in the window. If they play Barry's Blooterbaw for much longer, they'll be relegated with games to spare.

Six in a row, bloody hell....

Comfortable day at the office for The Mo, 3 easy points without always being at our best. Could have and should have been more than 3-0, especially with a couple of decent opportunities with headers in the first half, Webby rattling the post in the second half. 
 

Forfar seemed intent on playing the ball high and long at any opportunity. Granted we did that as well at times but the longer balls had a lot more purpose than Forfar’s hopeful punts. 
 

6 in a row, who would have seen this at the start of October?

One of the worst first half performances I've seen. No support for Hilson, but on the plus side, Robertson was very good. A very different second half. Meechan with some good ideas but Forbes and Kirkpatrick changed the flow of the game. Whoever comes in as manager has their work cut out but surely Forbes and Kirkpatrick start?

Well done Montrose, you boys are doing a total 180 this season. Knocking on the door of playoffs, didn’t see that a few weeks ago. We still need some revenge later in the season but until then I’d like you to take some points off of EF, Falkirk and RR. Do us a favour...
