  12. July 8 1919 CARNIVAL AND FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT ON THE LINKS The grand carnival and five-a-side football competition, etc, held on the Nairn Links for the benefit of the Nairn County Football Club, proved most successful. The carnival was in progress on the evenings of Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, of last week, and various amusements were provided in connection with it, such as hoop la, Aunt Sally, clock golf, bagatelle, palmistry, etc. All of these were well patronised both by townspeople and visitors. Facilities were also afforded for dancing, and a large crowd of young people indulged in that form of amusement, especially on Saturday evening, when the proceedings concluded. Excellent arrangements were made by a committee of the club, and in the first two evenings a sum of ?50 was realised. Another factor which of course went a long way to ensure success was the favourable weather conditions experienced during the period of the carnival. A special feature was a five-a-side football competition, open to Highland League teams. This event took place on Saturday afternoon, and aroused the greatest interest. The competing teams were:- 1st and 2nd Caledonian, 1st and 2nd Thistle, 1st and 2nd Clachnacuddin, and 1st and 2nd Citadel - Inverness. There were also teams representing Nairn, Forres and Buckie. September 16 1919 The Nairn County played their first match in the Highland League on Saturday at Nairn when they had Inverness Thistle as their opponents. Some 600 spectators witnessed the match. A raid by the local men on their opponents' territory, with two attempts to score, were the opening features of the game. The Inverness goalkeeper was, however, very safe, and the further obstacle of a sound defence prevented the home forwards from scoring. At half-time the score stood at 3-0 in favour of the Invernessians. On resuming the Thistle added another goal to their total. A succession of corners fell to both teams, but with no result. Fouls were frequent, and the offside game was resorted too rather often. The final result was a win for the thistle by 4 goals to 0. Notwithstanding their defeat, the county played a good game. As they are practically a newly-formed team, their failure against more experienced players was not surprising. Further training and better combination as the season advances will no doubt enable them to give a better account of themselves. Mr Fraser of Inverness was referee. The drawings (including tax) accounted to about ?20 - a record for Nairn. On Saturday last, the County play the Citadel, when they expect to have a stronger team and hope to secure their first win. In their new venture, the Nairn club should receive every support and encouragement from the general public. Source: Nairn County FC History 1919 :001:
  13. Some interesting maps of Inverness on this web-site - the 1912 map doesn't show any of the grounds but does show some interesting features and places that are still around today. The 1821 shows clearly the area where the citadel (Cromwell's Fort) and the moat stood. 1912 - 1912 map 1821 - 1821 map
  14. I would agree with Mr B and KM that the ground was in the area behind Cromwell's Tower. Cromwell's Tower or Clock Tower, Cromwell Road, Inverness. The tower dates from the 18th century. It marks the site of the Citadel, a fort built in 1652-8 during Cromwell's administration. The fort was demolished in 1660 during the Restoration period source: Am Baile - www.ambaile.org.uk
  15. I assume if he does come in it will be as Player/Manager as it will beat the dead-line and solve one of the board's other problems (up front anyway). Does this mean additional compensation (or was there a clause, as others have previously alluded to, in his Aberdeen contract about mangerial posts). I hope the paperwork was all signed off on Friday evening otherwise if not it could be costly :023:
  16. Interestingly I see Buchanan has not had too bad a start at Partick :023:
  17. looking forward to him winning us that first league title then :023: bad appointment....
  18. cheers chap - all the best with whatever you do next
