Notes: | Burghead Thistle bought the ground off
the Forestry Commission a couple of years ago after leasing
it for many years. They now have floodlights/training lights
and the wooden enclosure is a bit less ramshackle (still no
seats, although there are a few community hall style stacking
plastic chairs kicking around!). There is a new metal boundary
wall and the pitch now has a surrounding wooden fence complete
with advertising boards. There is no social club, but pies and
bovril etc are sold from the pavilion at half time. |
