AsimButtHitsASix Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Not that great but, at the same time, Brora could easily dish out a spanking like that to half a dozen HL clubs and take away the results against them and Ross County and it aint too awful. Probably similar results ye'd expect from Strathspey Thistle over the same period. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too many humpings there against some decent teams but, then again, letting in 4 against Dalbeattie, Girvan and Burntisland doesn't scream high quality either. For anyone on this forum, who hasn't watched an North Caley match, its website shows highlights of the NCA Football Times Cup Final in January 2020 : Golspie Sutherland 2 St Duthus 3 It was a very competitive game, with some cracking goals. The standard of the top 4 or 5 clubs has risen considerably in recent years, and the proposed award of Tier 6 pyramid status, is fully justified in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert James Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 North Caley club Inverness Athletic has announced a partnership with Inverness based youth club, Balloan FC. The purpose is to provide a pathway for young players to progress to senior adult football, presumably via Athletic's newly formed Under 20's XI. A progressive step for the two clubs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking Loch Ness Brewery might be an obvious sponsor (even though they're really Cairngorm now). Either that or the terrible tat shop under the museum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were literally a pub team a few weeks back and have now probably sold more shirts than a lot of league clubs will manage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant for seeing a band too although a little cozy. Our bass player had to keep moving out to the hall every time someone needed the toilet as there was no space upstairs at all! What a night though 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
