Sportsmans Dinner - a date for your diary

Forfar Athletic will be holding remarkably their 19th Annual Sportsmans Dinner in the Reid Hall on Friday May 16th, 2014.

As ever club officials are hopeful that the dinner will be well supported, this year’s event of course saw the sold out signs posted a couple of months in advance of the evening itself.

Leading the attack as far as the entertainment is concerned next May and making a welcome return to the Reid Hall will be John Gahagan reckoned by many these days to be Scotland’s number one sporting speaker.

John’s fellow entertainers will be making their first visit to the ‘bash.’ Former Celtic, West Ham United and Scotland striker Frank McAvennie will bring his own brand of humour to the night while Gary Marshall a Yorkshire based comedian with a superb reputation these days on both sides of the border will be making the 700 mile round trip to the ‘toonie.’

This early notice gives all those who count the night as one of the social highlights of their year to pencil the date in your diary.

Further detail of booking arrangements, prices etc will be formulated and publicised early in the New Year.
