Corky True Legend 2,682 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Formartine are the newest Highland League club. Play at Pitmedden - half way between Oldmeldrum & Ellon. Not a bad wee team. Last time I saw them they beat Inverurie Locos at Harlaw Park. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland Bear 433 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Formartine are the newest Highland League club. Play at Pitmedden - half way between Oldmeldrum & Ellon. Not a bad wee team. Last time I saw them they beat Inverurie Locos at Harlaw Park.They played our local select team up in Shetland back in 2006 and we beat them 7-1! Having said that they were a Junior/Aberdeenshire league side then and they have come a long way since and are one of the top teams in the Highland League now.

SE5 107 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Queen Of The South at home, will be a good gauge of improvement we have made in the last year.But they have lost their manager and best player. We would hump them this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Formartine Utd look set to be in the draw, 4-1 up against Elgin who are down to ten men.I know it's only Elgin but that's still a bit of a shocker Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 54,116 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Formartine Utd look set to be in the draw, 4-1 up against Elgin who are down to ten men.Would love to get them at Ibrox. This is what cup football's about, can you imagine the feeling their players would have running out to face the Rangers and 45 or so thousand bears,Would be a story to tell their grandkids.Especially the bit about them getting fucked by about 25 goals!!!!!

FlippinEck 3,719 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Ffs that's a shagging. How have Elgin started the season up till tonight anyone know?2 defeats in their opening 2 games. 2-1 Home loss to Albion in the opener aswell. Was a bit shocked, had money on Elgin but I really have no idea what their team is like to last year. Queens Park and Montrose also have 2 defeats, 3 teams which I actually thought did alright last year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Formartine Utd look set to be in the draw, 4-1 up against Elgin who are down to ten men.Not a massive shock, managed by Steve Paterson who has done well in the past and managed to a high level ( if you rate the sheep that is!) I really hope we get them at Ibrox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GersAvA92 53 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 We should get past Berwick Rangers so (without jinxing it) I'd take Formartine or QOTS at home, want revenge on the Doonhamers for obvious reasons. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christchurch Rangers 1,229 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Elgin have won one of their first four games this season, got pumped 3-0 against East Stirling at the weekend. good ol' East Stirling; one of my fav clubs from last season: great bunchgo the Shire!

TheCutch 4,340 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I remember reading about Formartine a couple of years back.Apparently somebody had pumped some money into them, which, in Highland league terms was the equivelent of the amount the owners of Man City had put in. Think it was about 50K right enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Bob 1,360 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Drawing Formartine would be great, if we get past Berwick Im even more apprehensive about this game now. Do you think the Rangers game will be the televised one no matter who we draw? I quite like the 4pm Sunday kick-offs. Couple of pints before and after then home for dinner.

Johnson 27 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Elgin have won one of their first four games this season, got pumped 3-0 against East Stirling at the weekend. Formartine Utd knocked East Stirling out in the previous round, that's why I bet them to win tonight.11/8 IIRC too bad I put a couple of tennis matches in with it and lost lol.No luck, Ian.
