SHINE A LIGHT

HOME GAME v ROTHES FC
BREEDON HIGHLAND LEAGUE
SEAFIELD PARK, GRANTOWN-ON-SPEY, PH26 3HY
WEDNESDAY 11 OCTOBER 2023 – KO 8pm

The floodlights are on and we welcome players, committee and supporters of Rothes FC to Seafield Park on Wednesday night.
As midweek matches go, this is one that should enable more supporters to come along as opposed to some of the more further away fixtures – and hopefully we will hear some of the League’s more vocal fans and some good old fitba’ banter that we normally expect when Rothes come to town.
Rothes are currently sitting in tenth position in the league with thirteen points so again, it’s going to be a tough game for us, but hopefully the Jags will put in a stellar performance and can earn our first points of the season.

If any of the Rothes fans haven’t made the trip to Seafield Park before click here for more information about Grantown – and as it is a midweek game there will be parking available in the neighbouring Golf Club car park – our thanks to the Golf Club for allowing this.

LAST SATURDAY v INVERURIE

Pouring and incessant rain in the build up to our visit to Inverurie, and with match postponements aplenty around Scotland, we thought that Saturday’s match would be in jeopardy. But when the Jags contingent arrived at Harlaw Park they were very impressed with the condition of the pitch….so must have been the home team as it took them only three minutes to open the scoring, doubling their tally before half time and adding a further three goals in the second half – again some defensive mistakes didn’t help our cause.

Hopefully with more home fixtures over the next few weeks we will manage to eliminate the mistakes and can pick up some much needed points – that’s seven league games we have played now – six away from home – someone on the Highland League FB page was wondering if we had a home ground !!!!

OCTOBER GAMES
