2009/10 Fixtures

at least it's a game i'll get to go to now!!

we're quite hopeful of this one going ahead on Saturday.

build-up will start with a player interview to come in the morning

I wouldnt build my hopes up too much grant,snow forecast for thursday onwards,lets hope it keeps away from huntly area.

Think we all need to be on our prayer mats
Surely not another weekend not watching the Black n Golds

The Penguins have gone back home.
So the match wiill be on

i see we play buckie away on wed 10th feb, then home to the vale a week later and then away to nairn on the 24th off the month

Very busy month which will make or break our season.

It certainly will be a very hard month having to play Vale, Nairn, Cove and also Buckie twice not to mention Rothes and Brora

Dont believe it, its starting to snow again

yeah i know hate the stuff, is the club going to try it's hardest to get the game on?

Definately, we need this game to be on

With the fall over snow overnight we are looking for helpers to come along tomorrow morning Saturday 30th Jan to help brush the snow off the lines. Everyone has been complaining about the amount of games off so show your support and come help us get the game on tomorrow.

9 AM Start at Christie Park and bring along a brush.....

Thanks

Disappointing that game is off, park was more than playable under the snow, but there was no way that the 10 people that turned up where going to get the park cleared in time.

That has to be the most disappointing thing, 10 people!! 4 of which where commitee members, in my eyes that is shocking, Turriff managed to get half their park cleared by the time I got home from Christie Park and got there game on. Shows how much people care about their team are game off Turra game on!

In fairness Fraser, we really really need the income right now, plus theres a good chance we'll get our ifrst win in months today.
All Huntly fans should get along to The Haughs and support your near neighbours efforts to get a permanently playable stadium.

It was fair chucking it down on the way to Aberdeen airport this morning.Just awaful.
How many hands do you think would have been needed to clear the pitch Fraser ??

Really need a reality check here folks.
Havind been involved in clearing the park three times previously my experience would suggest that getting the game on today was well nigh impossible.
I was prepared to assist however on looking out the window at 7.45 am and seeing 4 inches of fresh fall had fallen overnight it was back under the duvet and I am sure that is where the rest of the volunteers stayed as well.
Moving on to the boring facts of the logistics of clearing the park.

The area of Christie Park is approx 7000 sq metres and it has just taken me 1 hour to clear my drive which is approx 25 sq metres and that was just throwing it into a heap.
At best each volunteer would have probably managed 4 hours and that means we would have required 70 folk just to clear the park never mind the terracing and surrounds.
The pitch may have been playable underneath but what damage was going to be caused by all the activity on the pitch trying to clear it.

It was also going to be well attended game and having just returned from the park it is obvious there is no street parking and only half of the car park cleared.

Really disappointed game is off but lets get real.

And also no point in comparing with Turriff as we have no idea how much snow they had.

"Income" your not the only ones, we've not had a home game since you lot at the end of November.

Yes a.h see you at The Haughs today, for what will be my 7TH Turra game of the season, I really need my head examined!

1 hour to clear 25sq metres, what were you using, a spoon!

Thanks to the people who did show up this morning, Good to see there are some people out there willing to help out. Just a shame there was to much snow over night.

A big thanks again folks we really appreciate you turning up and supporting the Board/Commitee.
