Kyle Hutton says bagging a goal and helping Forfar to three points against Albion Rovers on Saturday would be the perfect gift on his 31st birthday.
Former Rangers, Queen of the South, St Mirren, Airdrie and East Kilbride midfielder Hutton signed an 18-month deal for the Loons after negotiating his release from Cowdenbeath on deadline day.
Huttons's papers weren't registered in time before Monday's 3-2 defeat against Edinburgh City, meaning he played 20 minutes as a trialist, but he will start his new adventure officially at home to Brian Reid's side in League Two.
