Forfar Athletic vs Dunfermline - Gary Bollan rushing to sign goalkeeper ahead of first game in charge of Forfar

New Forfar boss Gary Bollan is hoping to make an addition to his squad ahead of his maiden game in charge against Ladbrokes League One leaders Dunfermline.

Bollan, who was appointed earlier in the week, hopes to bring goalkeeper Darren Hill back to the club as regular number one Rab Douglas has told the Loons he no longer wants to play for them following the sacking of Dick Campbell.

Bollan, who will check on the fitness of Michael Dunlop and Mark Baxter ahead of the game, said: "It is a tough start but obviously one I am looking forward to. I know Dunfermline well as I took Airdrie against them last month."

Dunfermline are without Callum Fordyce and Ryan Williamson (both broken leg) as they look to stretch their unbeaten league run to 13 games.

Marc McAusland and Lewis Martin will return after illness and Michael Moffat is expected to shake off a knock to feature.

Manager Allan Johnston said: "We have done well against Forfar in three games already this season however this game is different as you do not know how they will react to a new manager coming in.

"There are no easy games in this league but we are not letting in many goals and scoring a few and long may that continue."
