jamamafegan Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Brilliant thread, enjoyed reading. Hopefully Campbeltown get licensed on day so we can all dream of Campbeltown away in the cup 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geo87 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 I played against them for years in the Scottish amateur, I haven’t played for 6 years or so right enough. Not sure what “proof” your looking for tbh 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Magoo Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 @geo87 you said that they had a habit of not travelling whilst in the amateurs, so it must’ve happened regularly. Just looking for an example of what you’re claiming. Or is it you don’t have one because it’s a lot of rubbish? Travelling midweek was never an issue as amateurs so it’s not going to be an issue in this league either for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tout P'ti FC Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Congratulations to Campbeltown Pupils!Off the mark now with a 2-2 draw away to Harmony Row YC. Twice equalising.Delighted for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AM-1 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Fair play to the Pupils on making the step up, a huge move and one which shows ambition and vision from the club. Hopefully the young squad shows the same dedication as the hierchy and things develop well. Kintyre Park is a great set up and with the backing of many local businesses the facilities will be maintained to their current level. Past successes for the club like the 1998-2000 squad when they swept aside the West's top amatuer side ensured the Pupils name is recognised throughout the amateur game for such a small town club. All the best to everyone involved this season and visiting teams won't get many a better away day thats for sure! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 Win away to Harthill! Brilliant. Harthill is a difficult place to visit. Plenty leave with a tank of petrol, an emptier bladder, a meal deal (a sandwich, a drink, a snack), and some loyalty points, but few get to leave with all three points. Well done Campbeltown! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) Nice to see the 'dangly bit' represented in the Scottish senior set up. We had a weekend in Strachur in April, and I drove down to Campbeltown for the first time ever. Did the Kintyre loop and the Cowal ferry to get back. The Mull of Kintyre was interesting to visit too (and for some reason nothing like I thought it would be), but alas the Springbank Distillery was shut. Very curious division they are in with this 8th tier - a bunch of sides from in and around Glasgow, Harthill and them. All seems very fluid in the pyramid now e.g. Scourie being just one level below Brechin City ! Edited August 2, 2021 by tarapoa 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Magoo Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 @Shanner it’s McBookie, they do the east, midland and north leagues too. Sometimes really good prices as it’s lower leagues 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsimButtHitsASix Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 If ye telt me ten year ago I could put a cheeky tenner on a Campbeltown Pupils match from my phone I would been "really? Why would I want to do that?" But it's still pretty cool 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted September 4, 2021 Author Share Posted September 4, 2021 A second win of the season for Campbeltown away to BSC today. However, a broken down car resulting in a taxi home from Arrochar will be a stinger! I'm looking forward to another trip next weekend. Home to Harmony Row. I'm tagging on a wee trip to Campbeltown before I head to Oban for a ferry. Can't wait! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AM-1 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 They have been playing well recently but just needed the breakthrough. They have recently brought in 4 players from Tarbert and also resigned an ex player who's back from injury which will help the younger lads. With a small catchment area to chose from they are certainly making a go of it and fair play to Campbell, Norman and Alex for showing ambition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy groundhopper Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Sounds and looks an amazing club/place to visit, no doubt I'd get on the wrong ferry - or get stranded somewhere ! Will give it a go sometime in the future. Good luck giving it a go, and having the players to make it worthwhile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted September 11, 2021 Author Share Posted September 11, 2021 I have arrived. The journey was excellent. I have to break the news to you though that the seasons have changed, we are most definitely in Autumn suddenly.Away to find some lunch. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted September 11, 2021 Author Share Posted September 11, 2021 Finished 6-2 to Harmony Row.Play was briefly held up in the second half as the referee admonished the visitors #17 for the heinous crime of eating a packet of skittles during the game, whilst waiting for a corner to be taken. "Are you taking the piss?" he asked, not unreasonably.The referee threw the skittles off the pitch behind the goal but at every corner thereafter the #17 returned for a wee graze. Attendance roughly 75. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
