Interview: Forth Wanderers gaffer Thomas Devine confident about season ahead
Goals from Johnny Branks and Josh Fullarton had Forth 2-1 up at the interval but they should have been further clear before Carluke earned a draw with a second half equaliser.
“In the first half we were as good as we’ve been in pre-season,” Devine said.

Hide Ad"We dominated and hit the post twice. We got into good areas and our forward play up until the finishing was very good.
"We played very well in the first half and we were only 2-1 ahead. I thought the second half was a more even game with play becoming a bit scrappy.
"At half-time we probably believed we had enough to win the game but if we can keep going the way we’re going this season we’ll be ok.”
Wanderers are at the foot of the mini league table with two points from three games.
