The pre-season schedule will reach its climax when the U-21s will contend with Montrose in the 2001-2002 Forfarshire Cup Final on 27th July at Links Park (3.00pm kick-off) whilst, at the same time, the first team travels south to meet with Coventry City on 27th July 2002 (3.00pm kick-off). Details regarding admission fees will be announced shortly.

On the injury front, the Manager confirmed that Jamie McCunnie would report to Fernbrae Hospital tomorrow for a minor knee operation.
