Fraserburgh

That's Aberdeen City and Aberdeenshire.

The preceding bodies include the likes of Grampian Regional Council and then the historic boroughs of the Shire as well, which include places like Stonehaven, Bankery, Ellon, Fraserburgh and Peterhead.

So that big swathe of the northeast corner of Scotland really.

Within those local authority records, you've got things like burial records, school records, valuation rolls, electoral registers, church records and poor relief records.

They don't have a deep squad but they have a good 11 but getting that 11 out on the pitch all at one time has been a struggle for them.

Yeah, they were 3-0 down at half-time against Fraserburgh.

I think the conditions were playing a huge part in this game, as they seemed to in quite a few of the games at the weekend.

But Ewan Kennedy had a rapid double in the space of five minutes at the start of the second half to set up a grandstand finish.

they started in it was at Peterborough which makes sense it makes sense Peterborough Peterborough from Norway is like it's like a straight line it's not that you know it's distance wise that makes sense right so that was their initial bit or finishing Peterborough Fraserborough Fraserborough sorry like that makes sense right right that's like coastally positionally to norway that makes sense right right but the dates before it like they did not play something as it was like newcastle then scotland and then they were like glasgow then they were going to bristol that makes no fucking sense at all

Fraserburgh to Newcastle to Nottingham to Birmingham to Glasgow to Bristol to London to Sheffield

right so from yeah like Birmingham to Bristol is like it's like an hour and a half on a train right it's like two hours or something drive or whatever it is it's cross it's not like to travel the distance from Birmingham

to Scotland first

What are we looking forward to?

I, I'm gonna mention Fraserburgh.

I'm not...

I know it sounds biased 'cause it's me, but no, uh, [laughs] I think Fra- Fraserburgh for Martin is a fascinating one for me.

We've touched on it already in, in today's episode that it's...

They've both, they're both carrying significant injury, injuries at the minute.

Blairhead had about 10 as well

... yeah, I expect the situation will improve somewhat by the time of kickoff on, on Wednesday.

It was he who enlarged the petty port of Peterhead into the chief station of the flourishing whaling trade.

It was he who secured prosperity for Fraserburgh and Banff and many other less important centers, while even Dundee and Aberdeen, the chief commercial cities of the east coast, owe to him a large part of their present extraordinary wealth and industry.

When one thinks how large a number of human beings have been benefited by Telford's Scotch harbor works alone, it is impossible not to envy a great engineer his almost unlimited power of permanent usefulness to unborn thousands of his fellow creatures.

As a canal maker, Telford was hardly less successful than as a constructor of roads and harbors.

mean, they did say that they wouldn't bring her up because obviously out of respect for the people that died there.

so I've got a little story for you guys this is quite an interesting one and it's from the north of Scotland and it's a creepy tale well I think it's quite creepy and it took place just off Fraserburgh which lies just south of Macduff so Fraserburgh in case you didn't know is a fishing village and in 1974 the crew of a grounded yacht ended up staying there for several days and So basically what happened was the Silver Cloud, which was a wee sailing ship, was en route from Inverness to France when it ran aground at Rattray Sands, which is like a big sandbank outside the Fraserborough.

It ran aground in thick fog.

And people speculated that perhaps the boat was cursed, as four months prior to running aground, the owner of the vessel had fallen onto the deck while preparing for the voyage and ended up being quite badly injured.

But Gary Manson, their manager, has announced that at the end of this month he's going to stand down after a truly amazing spell of service

at the club Aye well it's not quite the end of this month after the 19th of September he's got three games left he's got Fraserburgh this weekend and the R Davison Bankery Highland League Cup nearing away next Wednesday and then Fraserburgh at home in the league on the 19th and then that'll bring 26 and a bit years of service to Wick Academy to an end for Gary he's been started as a player debut in August 2000 and then the last six years he's been manager and as you say it's kind of like been a hard start to the season and then they beat Thurso on Wednesday night in the North of Scotland Cup and then they've beat Forest 1-0 on Saturday but I mean the reason Gary's stepping down is family reasons because him and his wife are expecting their second child and I think he just thinks like the sort of length of time he sort of put football first before everything else because I mean over to be involved in the game in any capacity really for that long is an extraordinary sort of commitment and I think he just feels the time's right for him to maybe prioritize his family and things like that which you can understand and

What if they win all those games before September? They need a manager of the month for September.

They're begging him to stay.

Yeah, at the age of 77, we couldn't really do Charlie justice in a couple of minutes, I don't think.

Those who saw him play will tell you he was one of the best to do it in the Highland League, and I think that's probably the best accolade we can really give him.

He was loved at Inverness Thistle, Bucky, Peterhead, Andrew Brock as a player, then went on to become manager for 27 years, also had brief spells at the Huntley and Devon Vale games, in a coaching capacity after that he was just a guy who loved football and it's funny a really unassuming sort of guy too you would go and speak to Charlie about doing a preview or getting his thoughts on something and his first thing was always what do you want to speak to me for and then would proceed to hold court for about half an hour and you couldn't get him off the phone that's maybe due to the poor signal that He was always moving on the top of a roof somewhere in Fraserburgh to try and speak to you if you could actually get a hold of him.

Yeah, he was...
