THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL STRATHSPEY THISTLE FC PUBLICATION
This Saturday we welcome Buckie Thistle FC in the William Hill Scottish Cup to which will hopefully be our first home game at Seafield Park since March.
Buckie have always been well supported and it will be a shame that their supporters will not be here with us in numbers as SFA and Highland League CoVid Pandemic guidelines advise away team supporters not to travel.
These are the restrictions which we ask all StrathyJags fans adhere to :

Tickets cost : £8 adult / £4 for 60+ and 12 – 15 year olds / Supervised under 12’s FREE

Thank you in advance for your co-operation with what will be a different season at Seafield Park, but together, we hope we will create a safe environment for you to enjoy your football.
Unfortunately our game against Rothes Football Club has been called off due to heavy snowfall covering Seafield Park. The Highland League will find an alternative date for this fixture to be played.
The long wait for league action continues.
HAPPY ST. ANDREWS DAY
Well….. last Saturdays visit to Fort William was a bit of a disappointment to say the least – especially finding out from the referee that the game was postponed, due to a waterlogged pitch, at 2.50pm – ten minutes before kick off.
Anyway, this Saturday we welcome Rothes FC to our first home game at Seafield Park since March 7 2020 in the Breedon Scottish Highland League, kick off is at 3pm.
There was always good rivalry from a usually vocal Rothes support who will be missed, as unfortunately SFA and Highland League CoVid Pandemic guidelines does not allow away team supporters.
There are also more restrictions which we ask you all to adhere to :

FOOTBALL IS BACK!
There will be a return to Highland League football this Saturday as we travel to Fort William F.C. (Official) and play our first game of the season. It has been a long wait and it has been somewhat of an arduous journey just getting to this point. But come Saturday The Highland League is back!
The Club are looking forward to welcoming back home spectators when we play our first home game at Seafield Park on 5 December against Rothes FC followed a week later by Buckie Thistle in the William Hill Scottish Cup…..unfortunately no away spectators will be allowed, which also means that our fans can only attend home games. More information about cup games, weather postponements and rearranged games can be accessed on our Facebook and Twitter feeds.
With the league opener just 2 weeks away we are now in the position to give information on our season ticket packages for the coming season. A full season ticket can be purchased for £50 with a concession for £25.
We appreciate your support during these challenging times and everyone is raring to go after such a long lay off.
Whether you are a lifelong Jags fan or someone looking for something to do on a Saturday in these restricting times, we are offering you guaranteed entry to every Strathspey Thistle home league game in the 2020/21 season.

For up to date news please see our Facebook and Twitter feeds
Following the Highland League’s decision to conclude the 2019/2020 league after a meeting with all the clubs on the 21 March 2020, the management committee of Strathspey Thistle Football Club would like to thank all players, management – Gordon, Tommy and Robbie, and our supporters and very generous sponsors – both for match day hospitality together with our main sponsors for their commitment to the club – we very much appreciate it. We finished in thirteenth place (with a few games in hand by the way…!!) – our highest placing since we entered the league in 2009. We congratulate the winners Brora Rangers FC on a well deserved championship.
As the country comes to terms with isolations and restrictions of movement we have decided to suspend our weekly lottery – and aptly, our last draw on Sunday 22 March resulted in NHS worker Mr Tony Powell from Newtonmore winning the accumulated £3600 prize.
The lottery will restart when things return to a more normal environment and if anyone has bought tickets for this week’s draw they will be valid for the first draw on resumption – those who have paid in advance will have the period covered extended appropriately. Anyone paying by standing order will also be catered for..
As you can all imagine, the club will find the weeks ahead challenging, as will every “small” club in the UK, so the difficult tasks are to get in place all the ingredients necessary for another successful season…hopefully starting at the usual time late July/early August.
We will try to keep you all up to date, through our Twitter and Facebook pages, as well as this website -which we will try to keep updating with as much information for next season as we can – with regards fixtures, players, merchandise, corporate days, sponsorships etc etc.
PLEASE FOLLOW GOVERNMENT ADVICE ON SELF-ISOLATION, SOCIAL DISTANCING AND HYGIENE, AND ABIDE BY THE RESTRICTIONS ON MOVEMENTS OUTSIDE YOUR HOME AND ON TRAVEL. PLEASE, ALSO ADHERE TO ISSUED GUIDELINES IF YOU ARE HELPING VULNERABLE PEOPLE OR THOSE IN NEED OF FOOD DELIVERY. WE ARE VERY LUCKY TO LIVE IN A COUNTRY WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE PREPARED TO PUT THEIR, AND THEIR FAMILIES HEALTH AT RISK FOR OTHERS – – BY TAKING SUCH MEASURES WE CAN ALL PLAY OUR PART IN PREVENTING THE SPREAD OF THE VIRUS
We’ll be back as soon as is possible…Stay safe, as they say!

We welcome the current leaders of the Highland League to Seafield Park on Saturday.
