welshbairn Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 (edited) Fort lost 1-5 to Wick and 2 red cards, ending the season with a GD of 224, conceding 245 and scoring 21. Won none, drew 2 and lost 32. Points total minus 7 after having 9 points deducted for fielding a non eligible player 3 times. P.S. Seems I got my sums right for a change. From Wick's twitter feed.

I like how he says "The harsh reality is that you're completely out of your depth in that league and have been for many years. Maybe time to admit that and seek pastures new." That doesn't seem to stop Celtic having a go in the Champions' League... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would have a point if Celtic hadn't sought pastures new this season by not qualifying for the Champions League... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeek Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 pretty convinced that PoB fella is on here, there seems to be a lot of correlation between what they post on twitter and topics / threads on here. Came across like he was blaming FW for not being relegated or just plan f**king off. Most of what he posted on twitter before was fairly ok, roaster comment at FW though, and seems to be enjoying attention. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonD Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 It's surely been said before but the title of TGFITW must go to the Fort William supporters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqy Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I went to a couple of games last season - the 5-0 loss away to Clach and the 5-1 defeat at home to Wick. To be fair to the Fort, they looked fairly well organised and not completely hopeless - played well in the first half hour against Wick and made it relatively competitive until the first sending off. With a regular squad and a few less postponements, no reason why they can't drag themselves off the bottom. They played Jeanfield Swifts' youngsters in a pre-season friendly last week, won 9-3. Some good link-up play across the middle and a couple of cracking strikes. They're playing Campbeltown tomorrow which I was hoping to get across to, but I've got a bloody eye infection and not sure if I'm keen for a 6 hour drive there and back with a gammy eye. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not been at Claggan Park since Caley’s last season in 1994. Was in Campbeltown this year though, that’s a hoor o a drive You should go for it, I’ve had a gammy eye for 7 years , never stopped me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

List_of_Jericho Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Should be a good test for them down in Campbeltown tomorrow, about a 3 and a half hour drive down there for them from Fort William. Cracking surface to play on down at Kintyre Park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't even the worst senior club in Scotland, leave alone Britain. Right at the bottom of the EOS and SOS there are worse teams. And if you include the juniors, that title goes to Coupar Angus (based on last season). I've seen both play last season and Fort William would pump Coupar Angus. Also no mention of the fact that they played a Jeanfield Swifts youth team and not their first team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
