HOME MATCH v LOSSIEMOUTH FC
BREEDON HIGHLAND LEAGUE
SEAFIELD PARK, GRANTOWN-ON-SPEY, PH26 3HE
SATURDAY 15 NOVEMBER 2025 – KO 3PM

The town of Lossiemouth

This Saturday we welcome players, officials and fans of Lossiemouth FC to Seafield Park for our first meeting of the season in the Breedon Highland League. For travelling supporters please click here if any would like a resumé of what’s happening in Grantown.
Lossie have not started the season as they would have wished and currently sit in seventeenth position with eleven points, and suffered at the hands of Formartine in their cup tie last Saturday, but in this topsy turvy league who knows what will happen and it promises to be another cracker of a game.

Jags’ head coach Ryan Esson and the team missed out on last week’s cup ties so have had a couple of weeks of recovery and preparation since their last match – a creditable draw away to Turriff – and with most of the squad back fit hopefully we can get all three points.

As ever we wish the boys all the best.

MATCH v TURRIFF UNITED, SATURDAY 1 NOVEMBER

We made the trip The Haughs in Turriff for our Breedon Highland League match a week past Saturday.  The Haughs have not been kind to us over the past few seasons and we knew it was going to be tough to get anything from the game.
Not for the first time this season we went a goal behind after thirteen minutes but two minutes after the half time restart Liam Shewan converted a penalty after Shaun Morrison was fouled in the box.


That was how it finished although the Turriff keeper pulled off a great save in the final minute after a great effort by Shaun Morrison so it could have been three points but one point was deserved – our first point from our Turriff visit since 2021 so we were more happy than sad!
Esson interviewed by the Press & Journal after the match and he said  although we struggled early on and lost a poor goal our reaction was very good and no one could deny us something from the game. We tried to use the wings and get balls into the box and we got our reward with another point away from home which is never a bad thing”

PETER GOW
That day’s football was marred by the tragic news that Peter Gow had taken unwell at the Nairn County v Brechin City match, and had very sadly died at the scene  – the match was obviously abandoned.
Peter was a huge supporter of the club, a previous Nairn County Fan of the Year winner, and long-time sponsor for not just the first team, but their youth teams as well. 
Strathspey Thistle FC sends our condolences to Peter’s family and friends, and also to our friends at Nairn County FC.

LOTTERY CH-CH-CHANGES

After the current jackpot has been won therefore completing that game, there will be some changes.
There will still be a weekly prize of £100 for a consolation winner if their entry matches four of the five numbers drawn, however instead of a weekly increase in the jackpot of £100, this will now be increased monthly. 

The game is to forecast 5 winning numbers, which are drawn at random, from 1-20. The 5 numbers chosen are to be marked by a cross (X).

  1. The Jackpot prize starts at £1,000 and the game continues until it is won and starts afresh. As applicable, the Jackpot increases by £100 immediately after the first draw in each calendar month, up to a maximum of £5,000. The Jackpot is then capped at £5,000 until it is won in a weekly draw. 
  2. If more than one player has 5 winning numbers, the Jackpot will be divided equally among the winning players. 
  3. Should no entry forecast all 5 winning numbers, then any player matching 4 numbers will be entered into a draw for a single Consolation Prize of £100. 
  4. THE DRAW will take place every SUNDAY at 7pm unless otherwise advised.
  5. The entrant named on the ticket must be at least 16 years of age.
  6. All winners will be notified.

That’s all this week sports fans – see you next week.
