Dan Steele Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 Taking part in this week's Forfar's Basement Battle, Annan Athletic, arguably in a worse predicament than Forfar, are the visitors. Could this be the game where it all clicks into place for Forfar? Might the attack run riot with a goal spree? Will we delight in the big punt up the park? Or will it be another day of excuses? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Forfar scored 3 in the cup, but in the league? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RateofKnots Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 2-2 draw. Possibly 2 own goals, a red card and a managerial casualty in the aftermath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Steele Posted November 5, 2022 Author Share Posted November 5, 2022 Imagine having the brilliant idea at 3-0 down of shoring up your defence to avoid further embarrassment when your team is at last showing a bit of fight. And still gifting another goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fafc1885 Posted November 5, 2022 Share Posted November 5, 2022 When the decision was made to start Gary Harkins, you just knew it wasn’t going to end well. Hutton is mostly to blame for that bad pass for the opener, as well as Munro and Docherty towing caravans, but what was Harkins doing? Hutton is trying to play the ball out wide and he stands still in the way so he can’t play that pass, forcing Hutton to make that mistake. Annan could have been more goals ahead before the penalty, which I don’t think was soft. More stupid. McCluskey was very lucky not to be sent off as well for his kick at a player off the ball. Slack defending yet again cost us the third. After that we started to play well? You do this at that start, not at 3-0 down. As for going to a 5-3-2 at that point, oh my god. We got a goal back but it looked more like Fleming was caught off guard by the fact we had a shot. Annan could have had another couple before their fourth if it wasn’t for Marc. Irvine really needs to go now, if we don’t get rid of him it’ll be too late to stop the rot. Another thing that needs to go is the constant insistence that injuries are to blame. The club statement recently said they’re not using injuries as an excuse yet every week it’s mentioned. Even on the tannoy it’s mentioned before the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
