Well we've been drawn away to Huntly in the Scottish cup, a tougher draw than you might think because they seem to be doing really well this season.

Also this his bad luck we have with being drawn away so much is getting a little out of hand now. 🤔

I don’t mind being drawn away from home when it’s a trip to somewhere a bit different!

Agreed, a trip away to Huntly is honestly more enjoyable for myself than say a home tie against someone like East Fife, which is still better than say Elgin or Dumbarton away.

In the 2020/21 season all our Scottish Cup matches were home ties: 

2nd Round: Forfar Athletic 4 - 1 Linlithgow (revenge for the time they kicked us out 3 years earlier)

3rd Round: Forfar Athletic 2 - 2 Edinburgh (5-3 pens)

4th Round: Forfar Athletic 0 - 1 Dundee United (TV game)

Since then we've always been drawn away, it's also the furthest we've gone in the cup since then.

Much rather a trip north than hosting some shower like EK. 

Nice part of the country to visit & a tie we should absolutely be winning. Yes huntly are improving this season but it should be a comfortable win. It's an easier tie on paper than the 2 previous trips north for the cup.

After Stranraer getting 5 at the weekend, I'd really like to see us going and having a go at them at the weekend.

Unfortunatley being away from home we will probably go back to setting up defensivley and be happy not to lose.

This is how i would like to see us line up 

 

                                     McCallum

 

Nditi                    Whyte        Morrison                   Allan

 

          Inglis                Whatley                 Moore

 

                                   Paterson

                             Skelly      Macleod

 

Maybe even Finn Robson in for Whatley??                      

I wasn't far away with what I tought should be the starting 11.

Anyone know what was wrong with Kieran Inglis on Saturday?

Matty Atken is leading our line brilliantly. I know you fermers were obsessed with him joining us & how bad he is so just a wee update. 

 

Just needed away from your horrible wee club. 

Thankfully matty isn't mixed race he'll not receive racist abuse from 1 of your fans, that Roberto nditi suffered the last time we were at stenny, and the steward thought a little talking to was acceptable  until the Forfar fans went nuts and the steward returned to put the boy out....eventually!!!
