In the unlikely event it's full you could park in the village, 10 minutes walk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Shaker Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 They've two car parks outside the ground, the combined space of both usually deals with a crowd. You can park on the road that runs past the entrance to the ground, but tuck your wing mirrors in. Brechin fans present when they were playing at Tannadice and the like not long ago will LOVE this kip. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness most of these fans have stuck out the bad times and are enjoying the trips . Can't remember the last time away teams at the glebe have taken selfies in front of the big stand thinking they are now in the big time.

RedintheBed Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 The last time I remember away fans taking selfies outside The Glebe was when Sevco played their first-ever game there in 2012. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying that, we have had a no bad run of results since the defender of the hedge appeared so all seems to be good.

No one is interested in Formartine, and of any crowd that does show up you can bet about 90% of them will be the owners buddies in for a hospitality day out who'll have no idea what the score was come full time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
