Forfar have publicly thanked their fans for the backing they gave the team during Sunday’s Championship play-off final second leg at Alloa.
The travelling contingent from Angus well outnumbered the home support in the Indodrill Stadium but they were left devastated when the Wasps overturned a 3-1 deficit from the 1st leg at Station Park to win 3-0.
However, despite that disappointment, the club were keen to pay tribute to the support Dick Campbell’s team received.
The Forfar statement read: “The directors, management and players of Forfar Athletic Football Club would like to put on record their thanks for the incredible support the team have received in recent weeks culminating in 825 fans travelling to Alloa for yesterday’s play-off final.
“The home support numbered only 598, a remarkable statistic.
“Obviously the end result was a sore one for all concerned and the players were hurting and in fact totally distraught at the end of the 90 minutes.
“They all though appreciated the fact that the supporters stayed to the end and gave them such a wonderful reception.
“However, we will all have to re-group and with that same team ethos, hopefully look forward to another stirring campaign, which gets underway with the start of pre-season training four weeks tomorrow.”
