topcorner Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Not been to Stranraer before Nothing there apart from a ferry Quote
mizer Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Nothing there apart from a ferry Not even that anymore. Just a couple of abusive fans http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-south-scotland-15825332 Stranraer Football Club has issued an open letter to fans urging them to help weed out troublemakers from its Stair Park ground. It follows an incident in which visiting supporters suffered verbal abuse and threats outside the ground. The letter is signed jointly by the club's committee and Dumfries and Galloway Constabulary. It urges fans to treat visiting supporters with respect and report any incidents of abuse. The letter comes after events at a home game against Queens Park. Visiting fans were challenged to fight and forced to endure a torrent of abuse as they made their way to the parking area behind the old stand. Quote
Jute Posted November 22, 2011 Author Report Posted November 22, 2011 Was in Forfar for the preseason game and place was dead. Would much rather it was Stranraer. Quote
glasgow sheep Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Having been to Stranaer for a league cup tie in August a few years ago not sure I fancy it too much in Jan....and having never been to Forfar I'll go for that Suspect peterheads game will be moved to pittodrie Don't see why, perfectly serviceable ground, just a small crowd and that is no reason to switch grounds: http://www.scottishgrounds.co.uk/peterhead.htm Quote
Penfold Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Was in Stranraer for the League Cup game and canna be assed going back. Was in Forfar for the pre-season game and canna be assed going back. Quote
glasgow sheep Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 I'd be up for some proper old school terracing here rather than the muddy grassy banks at Alloa and Stranraer I have been at in recent years Quote
glasgow sheep Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 Really hope it is Forfar, cannae be fucked with Stranraer and Forfar look to have a nice wee ground. Only issue for us weegies maybe travelling up with the huns who are playing at Arbroath (although I guess it will be moved for tv) Anyway Station Park: or Stair Park: Quote

glasgow sheep Posted November 22, 2011 Report Posted November 22, 2011 East fife switched their league cup game against rangers to east end park police might claim it wouldnt be safe Peterhead might think they woudl make more money etc East fife have one stand and I don't think have any room for standing elsewhere. Neither should be an issue for the Bloo Toon. Hope they don't move it Quote
