Any predictions for todays game? I'm assuming that it' still on despite the heavy rain and winds? If so then it should be a cracker! Forfar are
certainly a team going through a good run in fortune but even though if we have play off ambitions, this has to be a game we must win. Anything less is going
to be a disappointment.

Yes we need a good reply today to bannish the wed. night blue's(no pun intended). I think Robbie would have told them in no uncertain manner that wed.
display was not on. I think the game should be on, if the wind stays down, Went a walk with the dog an hour ago, the wind was so cold it brought tears to my
eyes.

Yep, made my other eye greet to hear the weather is fine in cobber land. The sun is shining at the moment (11.35 am) very hot through the window at my computer
desk but f-----ng baltic outside. It will be thermals, long johns, thick coat, hat and gloves + half bottle, hot water bottle an all. Never mind once the game
starts and a few shouts at the ref later, we will not feel the cold. Cmon city

Yep! The weathers a bit of a problem here too, 10.00am, and really chilly for this time of the morning, 29 degrees!!!

Well done guys, and no more slip ups. |

The Knock gets it right again. 12-1 @£3 = £39.00. Even Sprake got it correct. Good result. Just a pitty some scores went against. Good to see a good turn out
today after Wed. It was bloody baltic.

Lachie thought we were better when we lost 5-0 to Stranraer than we were today. Sid's second goal was a beauty - worth the admission price for that alone.
We're still on the edge of the play-off race and if we can get three more points on Wednesday and results go our way on Saturday ... who knows.

I actually agree with Lachie, the main difference was we defended better. I though we were fortunate to be 1-1 then Robbie's substitution putting Zander
through the middle changed the game. His pace had their central defence all over the place. We dug in, stuck at it and our quality players finished them off.
Great to see Demo, Cammy and Kenny back and special mention to 2 players who don't often get a mention, Rusty and Ross who scrapped for everything. We had a strong bench today and competition for places is keen which can only be good for the club. Congratulations to Hindsy on 200 games, here's to the next 200. The clubs above us might not think we're in the mix for the playoffs but they are in for a shock. FOREVER BLACK AND WHITE |

The defence was far better especially with Demo back. Demo and Kaz have a good understanding at the back. I agree Ross gets very little praise for the work he
puts into the game. His distribution of the ball is excellent. I however disagree about Smith, yes he worked hard but was a liability he couldn't string
two passes together which put us under pressure at times at the back. He took a couple of knocks and lost interest during the second half.

I'd agree about Rusty. Thought he looked lost for most of the 2nd half and was surprised not to see him subbed at some point. Probably his poorest
performance I've seen in a City shirt.
Encouraging that despite the 1st half being fairly even I thought we controlled the 2nd really well. Difference was when Zander, Cammy and Sid started playing with the ball. We'd the pace up front with Frizz and Crooks to start troubling the Forfar defence. |
