Brechin City vs Forfar Athletic preview - No worries for Weir
Posted Saturday, September 10, 2011 by PA
Brechin City boss Jim Weir has a full complement of players available to him ahead of his side's clash with local rivals Forfar, after strikers Jim Lister and Graeme Weir were passed fit after recent knocks.
Weir's side won their last encounter 2-1 at Albion Rovers, and Weir is hoping that his players can take that momentum into this weekend.
"We had lost a goal to Dumbarton the week before in injury time, so to win the game at Albion in the same manner was a very different feeling," he said.
"The players were really upbeat and that has carried on during training throughout the international break and I am sure it will benefit us against Forfar."
Forfar include their recent loan signings from Aberdeen, defender Joe Shaughnessey and wide man Nicky Low, in their squad.
Manager Dick Campbell has been forced to rule out both of his sons, Iain with an ankle injury and Ross because of a shoulder problem, but otherwise has no major injury worries.
Station Park assistant manager Ian Campbell said: "There were signs against Airdrie in our last game that things were falling into place for us. The arrival of Joe and Nicky has built on that and created real competition for places which is always a good thing.
"We are looking forward to going to Brechin and showing that we are moving in the right direction after a slow start."
