HSS Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 They've had the dressing rooms burn down,the manager has packed in and that might just be enough to finish them off. https://stv.tv/news/highlands-islands/1324200-firefighters-battle-fire-at-fort-william-football-clubs-claggan-park/ *** 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 07803049571. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antrin Posted April 19, 2017 Report Share Posted April 19, 2017 (edited) Genuinely, Fort Wullie is my St Mirren of the Highland League. First team whose results I go look for - to see how much they've been beat by. Be sad to see them quit. The town and its athletes are more interested in the shinty or the hill running. In the conditions that predominate under the big hill, it must be hard to generate a fan base in such a bleak, dreich toon.

St.Ricky Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 Will these be full time players? Will they train and be coached mainly in Inverness? Interesting set up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The committee and officials show some dedication Best bit was when the Fort player kicked the ball off the line only for it to hit and player and end up in the net, and then in anger try to kick the ball back into the net and totally missed it Other funny was when the guy at Sky Sports said the game might be off due to deer shit on the pitch, and they saying they must have been a stag do there Your right in what you say about the committee and official, but also credit for some of the players who lived hours away from Fort William, but still appearing for training and games knowing they are likely to get well beaten. Was that Colin Hendry at the end of season do I saw ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
