Kyle Wilkie believes Airdrieonians have finally recovered from Scottish Cup defeat to Celtic with a result over Forfar.
The Diamonds had been in free-fall since their trip to Celtic Park picking up just one win since January, but a strike from midfielder Wilkie secured the three points against Loons.
The 27-year-old, who bagged his fourth goal of the campaign, felt that despite the dip in form following the glamour tie there was still hope of making a last-gasp play-off push in League One after shocking the form team in the division
The Penny Cars Stadium outfit currently sit seven point behind fourth-placed East Fife, with The Fifers having played a game more, but he reckons things are clicking at a key time in the season.

Wilkie said: “We played well and we knocked it about the park well from the midfield to the top. It was a really composed performance.
“It’s true that we had fallen down the table a bit, but it’s a good spirit with the boys despite the run we have been on.
“We all get on with each other in the dressing room and it’s just maybe taken time for a few different things to click.
“We have a talented changing room in there and sometimes these things take time.
“The main thing was to get the win and start looking up the table.
“We’ve been in a situation before where we have had a good run of games, and probably that wee bit of luck as well.
“After the Celtic game we never really kicked on as well as we thought we were going to.
“The boys heads aren’t down. Normally you think when these things happen the boys heads would go down but we’re all right at it still."
