    Are the 2 oversized lean too's worth anything at all in reality.

    Couple of stands with zero facilities between them have no value at all surely. 

    No toilets no refreshments  no anything, neither of which are any more than 33% full these days I just do not know what all the fuss is about. 

    Unless the land itself has any kind of value then I fail to see why we are still waiting on confirmation of owning them.

    Rental value, if we own them we no longer have to pay rent to use them.

    Smallish beans, but every little helps.

  2. Almost 6 years old as a club, finding our feet in the 1st division...no one gave us a snowball's chance in hell.

    After the Saturday call off most of the optimism had been replaced with a sobering dose of realism for the trip down on Tuesday ...but when Paul Sheerin calmly stuck the ball past Gould we all knew that was it, even with so long left to go.

    We had arrived, we had battered the fight out of them on their own patch.

    The good times had begun. This was the most important,and impressive moment in our history (until we beat a diddy team in the final). Never mind us, it's what the rest of the country remembers us for.

    That night.

    I am old enough to have watched football in the Highlands from the 60's and have seen many a good player throughout the years playing in the Highland League. A lot of players were plucked from the league and went on to play in the top leagues in Scotland and England. Donald Park, Roddy MacDonald, Des Bremner and Les Fridge, to name but a few, were playing for Highland clubs and were scouted by big clubs, so why can we not unearth some quality player playing there now? There must be good players in the HL who would love a chance of furthering their careers and play at a higher level. You can't tell me that they would be any worse than some of the players that were brought here from the JH period onwards. 

    The HL player thing is a bit of a red herring now as the youth setups from us, County & Elgin will have sifted through a huge number of players from a young age , discarding many as not worthy of progression for the level required ( prem/chmp/etc).

    So you will have a lot of HL players who were deemed not good enough and are happy with part time football and a career - as someone has said their day jobs may be paying more than we could offer them.

    If there are some exceptional HL players out there I'd say there were more attractive destinations on offer apart from ourselves.

    There’s got to be some sort of hidden gems in the HL we could attract. I remember when we signed Richie Hart, he was probably one of the last we signed from there and he ran riot in the first division. 

    Aye, and he played a bit of football as well.
