Difficult to put into words just how bad that performance was today. We will be nowhere near the top of the table unless we make significant signings between now and the end of the transfer window.
Montrose were so much better than us all over the park today, and I don’t think they’ll be troubling the top of the league either which is quite scary.F**k sake Airdrie.

Really disliked Ally Roy when he was at Airdrie, glad I can continue my dislike of him now he’s gone.

You cant beat a bit of flack for trying to keep punters up to speed, never mind it's all good fun well i'll sign off from this page with another bit of news , there's a striker coming in today.
Finally the West Ham striker we’ve all been waiting for….

Extremely tinpot that QP didn’t have a stream to watch on Saturday. Sounds like they done us a favour in the end though as by all accounts we were poor again!
Really can’t see us doing anything against Motherwell on Wednesday.

Potentially fantastic signing. Completely out the blue which is nice for once!

Didn’t think any of the trialists that started yesterday are likely to add much to our squad. Both centre halfs (no 2 & 4) looked really shaky - no composure defensively or on the ball. The forward (no 7) looked far too lightweight.
The striker that came on at half time at least put himself about and ran the channels well.
I think our starting 11 for the upcoming season is pretty solid and will no doubt be competing at the right end of the table, however I’m a little concerned with the bench/ squad. We are severely lacking in any sort of depth. Hopefully we’re able to get in another few players before the start of the league season.0 -

Such a flat performance all over yesterday, thought Allan looked lovely though.
Kerr injured? Hopefully ones that played the 2 games have came out injury free
My best guess would be Murray not wanting to risk playing him twice in two days after his recent injury/ surgery.
Bear in mind the real stuff starts on Saturday!

He was dreadful. At least he had the decency to show how dreadful he was before we try to sign him and not put in the best display of his life never to be repeated.He looked lively in first ten minutes but I appear to have cursed him.

Don’t know if it’s just me but this must be the worst quality stream I’ve ever watched. It feels like I’m watching it through some dodgy streaming site.
From what I can see, Easton looks a real threat. The trialist (number 11) looks decent so far as well. Any ideas who it is?

Leon McCann signs for Falkirk.

Blair Henderson?

I accept Quitongo is unlikely to be anywhere near the quality of Leon McCann, however can we afford to have two left backs? Surely we’re better investing whatever McCann’s wage would be into a better centre forward or another holding midfielder.

Well my source must be wrong then! I think it may still be on as he still hasn’t signed a deal with us yet. Either that or he goes to Airdrie
I’d take him tbh, offers something a bit different to what we have.0 -
Ritchie
Only CM on the books as it stands!0 -
Better sign another striker then.
I’m sure we will.
At the very least Forfar fans seemed sad to lose Allan, which can’t be said for the Dumbarton trio!0 -
Surely Agnew would play in the deeper role with someone like Frizzell going in behind the strikers?
I thought Frizzell was a winger in which case he would replace the Thomson/ O’Reilly role coming off the bench to run at defences in the last 20 mins of games. I may be wrong however!0 -
Is Allan going to start?
Unless we sign another striker I would imagine so based on the formation we played last season.0 -
With that signing, out starting 11 is looking something like:
Currie
Watson - Kerr - Fordyce
Wardrop - Ritchie - ??? - Quitongo/ McCann
Agnew
Gallagher - Allan
Subs: Walker, Frizzell, Ritchie, Robert?, Pyott
Not too bad for this stage of the season, not as doom as gloom as I thought it was. Who we manage to bring in in midfield is going to be absolutely crucial. We simply can’t get away with starting the season with guys like McKay/ Ritchie/ Kerr/ Sabatini/ Stokes playing there.1 -
Happy to see Josh Kerr sign on for next season.
He has potential to be a really good defender for us given a good run of games.1 -

Looks like we are trying for Paton
Paton is a funny one for me. He was poor on the ball and his distribution was horrendous, but there is absolutely no doubt that we were better with him in the team. Wouldn’t mind him re-signing.
I would be pretty happy if we managed to sign Steven Bell. You wouldn’t think he’d be guaranteed to start every game for Thistle in the championship.0 -
Not to feel left out Cove sign from Dumbarton too. Welcome to Balmoral Morgyn - 3 year deal!
Our back four will look like below which I think is fairly strong to be honest
Milne Neill Strachan Ross
Late to the party here, but Jesus Christ that’s mental. Three year deal!0 -
Strange one. Seemed to have a decent enough season last year but wasn’t fancied by the Forfar management.
Another signing from the bottom end of the league. Not convinced.0 -
Stokes scored a cracking goal for us early on in the season. I can’t remember if it was in a competitive game or not. That’s about all I remember of him.
