Forfar Athletic v Banks O’Dee – match information

[Thursday, 02 July 2026 16:54]

The ‘Loons’ continue their pre-season preparations with a home fixture on Saturday first against Highland League side Banks @’Dee.

The match at the Parkgrove Stadium @ Station Park will have a 2p.m. kick-off.

It will be the ambitious Granite City side’s first ever clash with Forfar Athletic as they prepare for a hectic start to their League campaign later in the month and also this season for the first time a handful of fixtures in the KDM Evolution Trophy.

Jim Weir’s squad for the game is likely to be along similar lines to Tuesday past when the Athies showed a fair degree of grit and determination against a strong St. Johnstone outfit, this being minus a handful of potential first team players through injury and holiday commitments.

Saturday’s opponents lost 3-0 at home to Peterhead in a friendly fixture at Spain Park at the weekend, to be fair two of the ‘Blue Toon’ sides counters coming in the closing minutes of the contest.
