Last updated : 01 September 2011 By Stand Free Ed

Aberdeen first team squad members Nicky Low and Joe Shaughnessy this afternoon joined Forfar Athletic on loan.

The two 19-year-olds will join the Division Two side until the start of January.

Both players have played for Aberdeen in the SPL, and have been involved in the first-team squad this season.

Shaughnessy made his debut against Hibs last season at Easter Road at the end of last season, when he started in the 3-1 victory.

Low made his debut as a sub under Mark McGhee against Hearts at Tynecastle in January 2010 when the Dons won 3-0.

Dons boss Craig Brown hopes the two promising kids will gain some experience which will be invaluable as they progress.
