Andrew reaches club milestone
ANDREW Steeves reached the impressive milestone recently of playing his 100th game for Montrose.
The 22-year-old arrived at Links Park in March 2015, initially on loan from Forfar Athletic before he signed on permanently.
The Perth lad, a former St Johnstone player, has given a string of solid, reliable performances, both at left-back and centre-half, to earn him respect from both fans and management alike. He is committed to Montrose until the summer of 2019.
Presenting Andrew with his trophy, Gable Endies chairman John Crawford said: “I would like to congratulate Andrew on reaching his 100th appearance.
“He is a real professional, who sets a great example around the club, and I hope he has many more games ahead in a Montrose shirt.”
Andrew is set to be part of t he Montrose squad which faces QOS at home in the Scottish Cup on Saturday.
Whether Terry Masson makes it remains to be seen.
The influential midfield man was taken off injured in the home 1-1 divide against Annan Athletic and is a doubt.
Craig Johnston was also replaced after receiving a knock to the ribs but he should be OK.
Speaking about the game, Montrose manager Stewart Petrie said: “It’s a great tie for the club.
“We are the underdogs but will take the game to Queens and, hopefully, we’ll get to the next round.”
