Despite the result above Fort remain one point adrift in last place and - ahem - boast a goal difference of -91. They've also played one more game than second bottom Strathspey.

2-0 down before the first ten minutes were up. This is a tanking even Criswell could have predicted accurately:

I see the scary score PB and console myself that Strathspey were 0-2 down with five minutes to go against lowly Deverondale. Fort could yet cling on to a lofty second bottom despite a goal difference that'd shame any self-respecting club.

 

Edit - let's make that a 0-3 defeat for Strathspey.

 

GO FORT!

*** PUBLIC MEETING ***

Due to the possible imminent retiral of some of the Board and Committee, Fort William FC urgently require volunteers to assist in the running of the Club, especially on match days.  Without assistance, the future of the Club, and particularly its participation in the Highland League, will almost certainly be in jeopardy. Financial support is also required.

Please come along to a Public Meeting at the Social Club, Claggan Park on Monday, 24th April at 7pm.

If you are unable to attend the Meeting but feel you can offer the Club assistance then please contact Club Secretary, Marie McMillan on 0780304. 

 

Last four numbers deleted.

Don't think about it as sponsoring, but more admiring, if you know what I mean. :D

Ironic appreciation really

 

If they were a person they'd be, like...Zsa Zsa, Ronnie Biggs etc.

So, after a 9-0 tanking today Strathspey's bottom of everything finish is confirmed and they've thoughtfully taken enough of a battering in their final 90 minutes to equal Fort's -92 goal difference. Another stertling season-long performance from our Fort heroes who appear to have slightly improved since we started loving them.

So, in a worst case scenario do we transfer our allegiance to Strathspey who'd - by default - become the almost nailed-on wooden spooners on current form?

There may be hope. Maybe we could sponsor a game? 

 

Thank you to everyone who attended the Meeting last night.

A proposal for a new Management Team was put forward which received unanimous support. The finer details of the proposal do need to be ironed out so more info will be provided in due course.

The Club still need help 'off field' so please get in touch if you think you can help.

So the cup is sponsored by the people who distribute the newspaper that sponsors the league, right?

 

Then again, north of the central lowlands there's only one family and they've all got ginger hair and eyes that don't point straight ahead, or summat!

Twenty years since I saw them play - glad to see they've kept the distintive and modest look to the ground!
