Only one that is scheduled - they have 7 unscheduled games including Downfield and Lochee United to somehow fit in. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNU_Linux Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 When's the last time the Fort scored 8 in a game? Bonar Bridge continue to struggle. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spyro Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 A bit gutted for Tain. Started off really well but the wheels have came off the wagon recently. I know they don't have near the budget of Invergordon so must be tough recruiting players in the area. Maybe they were just punching early on in the season to be so high up? Bonar are always on a hiding to nothing, it's a miracle they get a team out all things concidered. Alness, Invergordon, Tain Saints, Golspie then Tain Thistle and Lairg in the summer league (don't know if there as much of a crossover these days) so it must eat into the player pool they have at their disposable 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I attended a Bonar Bridge home game at the end of the North Caley season that had been due for the Saturday but was brought forward to the midweek and played under lights at borrowed Golspie. When I asked why, the Bonar Bridge club official told me that he had had to do that move because the players had told him that they were off to their summer clubs (the primary football up there) and he'd have had insufficient left for the fixture had it remained on the Saturday.

Funny that in the places that have a summer amateur league, it is more popular than the “junior” set up in the area… but when you mention switching amateur football to summer to save the dwindling numbers, the same people swear blind it’s a terrible idea and will never happen… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNU_Linux Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Another defeat but signs of progress for Bonar Bridge after recent scuddings. Golspie do Invergordon a solid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not as unlikely as it seemed last week. Invergordon don't lose silly points and Loch Ness have the occasional moment. They both still have to play the headcase that is Alness, wouldn't put it past Loch Ness to win every other game and blow the league here tbh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 If Loch Ness blow it again, they should just rebrand themselves as Black Isle Hibernian. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
