To be fair given these circumstances it would appear Fort William having a football club is a farce.

How so?

How so?

Maybe because , according to yourself, nobody in the area wants to play football

Doesn't mean its a farce they have a fitba team

There must have been an interest when they formed in 1974. They were elected into the HFL in 1985–86. If it was a farce to have a club in Fort William then why did the HFL let them in

These days more people want to play shinty. Does that mean they shouldn't have a fitba team. Does it f@ck

They almost went to the wall last summer. They battled through a truly horrific season and commendably did not scratch a game despite getting walloped every game. They then got deducted 10 points. Such a kick in the balls would have killed other clubs. They carried on. They had to play guys well into their 40s to field a team. They still plugged away. The stayed afloat and have now approached things differently. Fair play to them. They are attempting something different* to improve their fortunes. They have not broken any rules.

They have my utmost respect for still being around

'mon The Fort

*I hate the loan system in fitba for the record

Five nil the broch tims and the mighty Locos are derailed. Not a good start.

Good win for Buckie, got a few of the league winning players back from lengthy injuries, went down 1-0 then had a man sent off before getting their goals.

Might of changed but in my day it was always considered a Tim town and Peterhead was the Hun town. That's how tradition has it.
