Hope to see you on Saturday. Alternatively, if you guys fancy some free, live music then make your way to the home end bar in the stadium (accessible through the home turnstiles) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that home fans have rarely ever been allowed in our home end bar I thought it was worth highlighting, I'll leave you to decide if it's good or sad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howlin' Wilf Posted August 8, 2018 Share Posted August 8, 2018 A wee question for you. My grandfather's family were from Forfar and there has always been the story in the family that one of his brothers played for The Loons. Do you guys have a club history which includes all games, teams etc? If so, I'd be grateful if someone could check if Alec (or Alex) Glen who lived in Gallowshade, played for Forfar in the 1920s or 1930s? I'd be interested to know if he did indeed play for the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to fitbastats.com there was a Glen played for us in season 1922/23 and 1925/26. There is a question mark regarding his first name. I vaguely remember a Glen family in Gallowshade (I lived there until I was 10), I'll ask my mum at the weekend when I see her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victormeldrew Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Good chance for the fringe players to stake a claim for a first team spot tonight in the Tony Macaroni Stadium. The Manager and Treasurer will be demanding no slip ups. Let's get the job done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
