Match Preview
Gallagher back for Forfar Forfar welcome back goalkeeper Scott Gallagher for the visit of East Fife. The on-loan Rangers man is available after returning from Scotland Under-21 duty while Iain Campbell is also available after being suspended for last week's encounter with Ross County. Defender Stephen Tulloch is a doubt and Kevin Fotheringham has been sent out on loan to the Junior ranks to get some match action. The game has arrived too soon for the fit again pair of Alastair Divine and Darren Brady following a year out. The Loons are looking to get back on track after three defeats in a row and manager Dick Campbell said: "The games we have lost have all been against full time sides so there is no need to be alarmed." East Fife player boss Steve Crawford has added defender Stevie Campbell to his squad for the trip. Crawford will be on show at Station Park after the former Rangers and Partick Thistle defender came through a bounce game unscathed. Everyone else is available to the New Bayview boss with Crawford looking forward to locking horns with a former boss even if he was only in charge of him for one game. Crawford said: "I am a great admirer of Dick Campbell who has great experience as a manager. "He is a great character and he managed me one time when Dunfermline played St Mirren a long time ago. His teams are hard to beat and they have quality in guys like Chris Templeman and Dale Hilson."
Match Report
Templeman to the rescue for Forfar A second-half hat-trick from Christopher Templeman handed Forfar a dramatic 3-2 win over East Fife. Craig Johnstone handed the visitors a half-time lead when his close-range drive after just 13 minutes beat Scott Gallacher. But Forfar rallied in the second period and levelled when Templeman's 54th-minute strike found the net from 12 yards. Both sides went in search of a decisive third goal, Lloyd Young's shot for the visitors going wayward. And it was Templeman who scored his and East Fife's second when he met a long ball from defender James Bishop on the volley. John Ovenstone then looked to have levelled the game at 2-2 when he headed home in the 86th minute, but Templeman's last-gasp strike with virtually the final touch of the ball handed Forfar all three points.
