Forfar Athletic v Albion Rovers


Recommended Posts

Lose this and we are in danger of being isolated at the bottom spot, win  it and other results go our way and we get off the bottom by at least one place. A draw has only one positive and that’s McKinnon is unbeaten in the league.

We need to get right behind the team tomorrow, each member of the team ie no abuse pointed at certain individuals.

That's never going to happen, someone will complain about Matty, Andy or Docherty.

With injuries and suspensions a plenty who's going to start tomorrow?

Dominated for 65/70 minutes then started defending too deep and let them in, kinda hanging on at the end, but a valuable three points. We played some great stuff at times and, as a Albion Rovers supporter pointed out, if we still had square section posts we’d have been 4 or 5 up.

Felt we deserved the win but Rovers are probably unfortunate not to have scored late on.

Flanagan and Armour were excellent today, I was surprised neither of them were man of the match. Both of them could have had two each if they just placed their shots a couple of inches to the left.

Most players put in a good shift today apart from one. Aitken surely can’t start next week. It’s frustrating to watch us build forward only for it to break down because of him. Says it all that Rovers fans at the game wouldn’t have him back either.

Thought Aitken was excellent today to be honest. Had plenty rightful criticism but his hold up play was really good today

Totally agree, everyone with pass marks. Matty looked better with Armour and winger to play too. Could have been well out of sight

Aye he wasn’t too bad today. He’s been rightly criticised most weeks but I feel today is not justified .

Much better today and as stated should have been out of sight before Albion came back into it. Not sure Docherty is the answer but a vast improvement on Brindly at left back, would keep Jack in the middle too.

Badly needed three points and if we can play like that going forward should be able to get away from the mess we’ve found ourselves in.

Definite pass marks for all Forfar players, MOTM has to be Flanagan for me, now he's out of injury and got match fitness, perhaps we are starting to see the potential his previous clubs said he had, but could never realise.

Matty was okay today but he needs to be upgraded in January. 

Docherty is a better defender than Brindley but not a LB as he has zero pace to run the touchline.

Decent result In the end.

need to really start taking our chances though, clinical finishing when on top will benefit us in the long run.

everyone played well today, thought Flanagan & Thomson the stand outs though, what a difference when we play with actual wingers that like to take on their man.
