C_titz Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 It’s probably a good thing all these players being out of contract. The squads been fucked since before covid . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafc1885 Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Thank god Aitken is away. Should never have been signed for a second time. Marc deservedly won Player’s Player and Player of the Year. I’m amazed that Munro won the Away POTY, but at the same time I’m not because he can do nothing wrong in the eyes of the happy clappers on Facebook. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Joe Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 It saddens me to say this, but Forfar seem to be against developing the youth in the town. They seem to be still going all Dick Campbell on the way forward. Maybe Forfar can lead the way in Angus in progressing youths? At the moment Montrose seem to be ahead of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite how it is, although we don't have a direct youth team at the club, partly to having been priced out a few years ago with the change to the reserve leagues(not only us who went that way btw) we do have a partnership with the forfar athletic community football club that was founded 3 years ago that have many youth teams in the town. ↓↓↓↓↓ https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid02fCh3rF3dk2F69fm1vg55sXCk1KWBGDjbePLpcnuJriFyvnLepC1UDok2UaYDdcGzl&id=105108421101631 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jupiter Jazz Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 Looks like a good base for League 2. The bashing Munro gets is OTT in my view. Looking forward to see what McKinnon does. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to see what McKinnon does. The Munro criticism always comes down to two things. He is prone to absent mindedness, so can make glaring mistakes. Also his pass completion (unless it's to his CB partner or GK) is horrendous as he just hoofs it. However, his pros are leadership (will likely be club captain after Slater's departure) ability to win headers and he's strong. He also has been a Forfar player for quite awhile, second only to McCallum (with Matty being released). Andy Munro is totally suited to playing centre back for a Scottish League 1/2 team. Should he have won Away Player & make the TOTY? Probably not, but for all big Andy's faults he will be an influential player for us next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not mad about any of these players being under contract, although I would hope Brindley Is a second choice option tbh. Armour, Flanagan and Ross I wouldn’t mind us tying down, as long as we bring in quality to surround them. Promotion simply has to be the aim at the very least Edited May 6, 2023 by lwh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCallum, Nditi and Whyte could all, and have, played at a higher level. I really hope Darren’s injury issues are behind him now. Munro, Brindley and Thomson are decent players at our current level so happy enough they’re staying (assuming they all are?) A decent base for Ray to build his own team around, onwards and upwards 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering his goal tally prior to signing I wasn’t keen on his signing, nine goals in the league is a good return for him all things considered. Would have liked to have kept him as an option for next season, obviously Ray will have his own plans but feel he was still a good back up to have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, would have quite liked to have kept him as feel he could have kicked on but not a disaster. In Ray we trust 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
