2001 - SFL SECOND DIVISION

Sat-14-Apr-2001 [a] D2-2 Forfar Athletic (SFL Second Division - game 33)

Championship confirmed. Elliot scored (64 secs) when he ran on to a through ball. However, Forfar scored twice (8 & 36). There were some scary moments before substitute McGrillen poked a through ball into the net with his 1st touch (77). Not entirely convincing, but who cared? The party began.
