Forfar Athletic v Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic – Match Information

In what has turned out to be a slightly fragmented first half of the season for different reasons, the ‘Loons’ will all going well play their first home game in the William Hill League2 since November 9th with Bonnyrigg Rose the scheduled opponents on Saturday first.

Jim Weir and his players were frustrated for the second time in recent weeks by the Scottish wintry weather on Saturday past, their away match at Stranraer being called off 24 hours before kick-off as Storm Darragh threatened to wreak havoc throughout the Wigtownshire area.

The management staff put the players through an intensive Saturday morning training session as they continue the familiarisation project, but all concerned are raring to get back into match day action with two home games scheduled over a four day period, Peterhead due to come calling on Tuesday evening of next week. Saturday’s opponents head to Forfar on the back of a six game unbeaten league run. They sit in sixth position on the eighteen point mark in the table, but that tally is inclusive of a six point penalty incurred for infringing SPFL pre-season instructions in regard to their facilities etc at New Dundas Park.

The match will have the usual 3pm. kick-off.

Admission prices are as follows;-
Stand – Adults £16, concessions £10, under 17’s £5
