Jack Syme
[Monday, 09 February 2015 15:49]
All involved with Forfar Athletic Football Club are extremely saddened and distressed with the news today of the untimely death of our 20 year old defender Jack Syme.
Jack who hailed from Abernethy was a regular member of our Under 19 team last season and had in fact been farmed out on a temporary transfer during the first half of this campaign to St. Andrews United.
At this sad and difficult time the thoughts and sympathies of the Directors, Management, Coaching Staff and Players at Station Park are with Jack’s mother, family and friends.
As a mark of respect and at the request of many of Jack’s young colleagues at the club and with the full co-operation and blessing of Raith Rovers FC, tomorrow night’s scheduled Development League fixture due at Station Park has been postponed.
