  1. Hello. I posted a couple of weeks ago about how I felt Forfar Athletic was in my opinion “the worst supported” team ever. I got pelters. I got twats like the Silver Fox stating, “going through a divorce”. Then there was C-Titz, (now there’s a name), describing me as a “walloper”. Even the ubiquitous Slippery P from far flung Thailand chipped in. But then who cares. Came on line to the Pie and Bovril site to find NO preview of the Annan game. NO discussion site or thought provoking insight into how Forfar might do this weekend. At the time of posting this diatribe there have been three, (THREE) posts on the Forfar Athletic news page for over two weeks. It’s just not good enough.

    We were only just above tenth at the start of 2023 and one bad run of games could see us down in that battle again. Being positive is great but posting ‘League 1 pending’ and ‘we’re in a promotion fairytale’ is getting a bit ahead of ourselves.

    We were 11 points ahead of Arbroath at this point in the 2016/17 season and look what happened there.

    Thank you.

    With the winter registration/transfer window due to open for business on New Year a final wee jog of the memory to supporters and friends of the ‘Loons’ with regard to the Player Pot fund raising scheme set up by the Directors of the club earlier in the month.

    To date thanks to the support of Forfar Athletic fans from near and far, Ray McKinnon’s player budget for the month ahead has had a significant boost.

    However there is still an opportunity to support the scheme and boost the coffers, by purchasing one of the packages listed below, buying shares in the club or simply making a donation.

    The club enter a New year on the back of a four game unbeaten run and all are eagerly looking forward to welcoming Elgin City to Station Park on Monday afternoon of next week.

    Ray has already pinpointed a few potential new faces to freshen up the playing squad and finance has been made to him of course from normal sources.

    However every extra ‘penny’ raised through the Player Pot scheme as detailed will be aid the manager’s quest.

    OPTION 1 as you will see below is the opportunity to purchase one of the packages being made available throughout the months of December and January which include various match day hospitality offers etc.

    As you will see they range in price from £250 to £2,000.

    £250 – 50 shares in FAFC plus 2 complimentary tickets for a match this season

    £500 – 100 shares plus invitation to a Q&A with Ray McKinnon and other club officials in 1984 Lounge plus 2 complimentary tickets

    £750 – 250 shares plus 2 complimentary match tickets with food & drinks package in the 1984 Lounge at a match of your choice plus invite to above Q&A

    £1,000 – 375 shares plus Boardroom Hospitality for a match of your choice plus invite to Q&A

    £2,000 – 750 shares plus Boardroom Hospitality at two matches of your choice plus invite to Q&A

    OPTION 2 is simply to either purchase shares in the club for the first time or expand your current shareholding.

    The minimum and we emphasise minimum purchase is 200 x £1 shares.

    OPTION 3 as some have chosen to do is simply make a donation to the pot.

    All monies raised in the months of December and January from all three options will rest assured be totally utilised to boost the playing resources at the club either in the January window or in the ensuing close season.

    Supporters can be assured as well that the Directors will continue to pursue all their normal fund raising activities into the bargain but in post covid times this is proving to be a difficult proposition, with for example Sportsman’s Dinner and Golf Day which returned in late Summer not bringing in revenue similar to pre 2020 figures.

    Anyone wishing to make assisting the club through involvement in any of the above three options please do not hesitate to make contact with any FAFC Director or email;-

    Thankyou very much for doing that. Very interesting.

  4. Has to be the best result of the round for me. Having played against Talbot in the eighties twice in the cup and having been spat on from the supporters for the full 90 minutes I can confirm that the knuckle dragging support for the Talbot is indeed a dredge of absolute filth. If the club folded tomorrow It wouldn’t be a day too soon. 

  5. Took the trouble to pay to see this, first time Ive seen Forfar live for a couple of years. Should have come with a health warning. To say Im shocked at the standard of football from Forfar would be an understatement. It’s absolutely horrendous. The number four, deary me. As a fan, I,ll continue to support and follow their results eagerly but that first half was horrific. Im in shock, what a wake up for me. I had no idea the standard was so low. 
     

    P.s, the Left back is shite
