maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted April 12, 2017 Despite the result above Fort remain one point adrift in last place and - ahem - boast a goal difference of -91. They've also played one more game than second bottom Strathspey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted April 15, 2017 2-0 down before the first ten minutes were up. This is a tanking even Criswell could have predicted accurately: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted April 15, 2017 I see the scary score PB and console myself that Strathspey were 0-2 down with five minutes to go against lowly Deverondale. Fort could yet cling on to a lofty second bottom despite a goal difference that'd shame any self-respecting club. Edit - let's make that a 0-3 defeat for Strathspey. GO FORT! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted April 22, 2017 So, after a 9-0 tanking today Strathspey's bottom of everything finish is confirmed and they've thoughtfully taken enough of a battering in their final 90 minutes to equal Fort's -92 goal difference. Another stertling season-long performance from our Fort heroes who appear to have slightly improved since we started loving them.

So, in a worst case scenario do we transfer our allegiance to Strathspey who'd - by default - become the almost nailed-on wooden spooners on current form?

Paul Bearer 6,102 Posted April 25, 2017 There may be hope. Maybe we could sponsor a game? Thank you to everyone who attended the Meeting last night. A proposal for a new Management Team was put forward which received unanimous support. The finer details of the proposal do need to be ironed out so more info will be provided in due course. The Club still need help 'off field' so please get in touch if you think you can help. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
