*Manticore* 1,893 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Glad to see them go, it was always going to fail. Gretna is simply not big enough to support a League Club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrism_scotland 165 Posted May 19, 2008 Author Share Posted May 19, 2008 I was in Gretna a few weeks ago on my way back to Scotland and I couldn't believe how small the place was to have an SPL team! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterC 12,455 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 We passed thru on our way back from Manchester and i've been beofre. Too small to support a div 3 side let alone an SPL side. Was always going to end in tears. Lets hope someone like Huntly, Spartans or Auchinleck Talbot take their place...... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShootSpeedKillLight 0 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 When I'm at home I live about 9 miles from Gretna, it's a proper shithole. Just a joke that a place that small had a team in the SPL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wienblue 26 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 No feasibility study, no contingency plan - no sustainability. Should never have been admitted to the SPL in the first place, they added no value and became an embarrassment as the chickens came home to roost !!
