Tulloch Gorum Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 We had a bit of a wobble in December, with defeats to Raith and Clyde sandwiching a not-entirely-convincing victory over Peterhead. The performance agaist Falkirk - and perhaps especially the return of Kurtis Roberts - should give us confidence that we're more or less back on track, though. How are the Forfar fans feeling about this one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airdrieman Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Tricky game as I still think Forfar have the players to be better than their league position suggests but, if you want to challenge for the title, this is exactly the sort of game you should be winning. 2-1 Airdrie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every one is now fit so our strong squad should see us getting a win, but my predictive skills have been quite duff . Forfar will be a wee bit dangerous via Hilson so we will need to be on our best defensive skills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a really tricky January games against yourselves, Raith and Falkirk. Airdrie will win 3-2 Forfar probably conceding the 3rd goal late on, just like we did against Montrose last week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bernardblack Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I’m dreading this. Could be 4/5-0 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theSilverFox Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Travis out injured and Hilson getting a late fitness test does not bode well. Hopefully triumph in the face of adversity but likely not. I'll take a draw right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballboy Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Important 3 points for the diamonds. It won't go down as a classic but points on the board will do. I had to cover my eyes with the handball on the line. Just relived the ref shat it. Both defences were very organized so chances were few. Just pleased to get the win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forfar will be a wee bit dangerous via Hilson so we will need to be on our best defensive skills. It was a game of stout defences and the first half was largely tedious. One chance for Gallagher might have gone in and the line clearance at the other end was the most anxious occasion. Like last week we never really played much passing football and the ball down the wings rarely opened up their CBs. We did have some quite good crossing chances but the half time groans were no surprise. It was better in the 2nd half and Forfar seemed to be hoping for free kicks, one of which did worry me in the last minute. Roberts had little impact and I suppose Hawkshaw was a wee bit different in that attacking role ( and regularly fouled) .There was a wee bit of grumbling when McDonald was subbed for Wedderburn to shift MCkay to FB. Wedderburn had a good forward attack and the goalie made a good save.The real impact was with Thomson's arrival allowing some one who took the chance to run at Forfar. That led to the corner from which Nat scored. He has always been an enigma but I was delighted to see anyone score and he is the best passer of the ball in the squad. It was a hard fought three points and last season we would not have won. All to play for next week for a wee bit of Methil revenge.

Looked as if hes blocked it with a knee and it bounced up into his arm. The sort of one if it's for your team its accidental but at the other end we'd all be shouting for it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latter is a pen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the worrying part. His arm was up/out. Dont think it was given as bounced up off a knee but still had my arse twitching like a rabbit's nose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Decorator Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) We need to get the some decent loans in pronto or expect to be playing in division 2 next season. Very worrying at the moment. Edited January 4, 2020 by The Decorator 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
