MID-SEASON'S GREETINGS FROM GRETNA 2008 FC - Episode 7 of "The Only Way is Up!"

#football #footballdocumentary #soccer #scotlandfootball #gretna
In Episode 7 :
The First 11 take on:-
Caledonian Braves

Gala Fairydean
We also visit Gretna Bakery and take a sneak peak at the Christmas party.
Thanks to all who partipicated -- Jonathan Wheeler
Series Overview:
Gretna and Gretna Green form a twin community on the border with England. Gretna Green is known world-wide for weddings, having once been the destination of choice for young eloping couples from England. Gretna town was a World War 1 creation, built to serve an enormous munitions factory. Together they now host around 4,500 weddings every year, as well as a few football matches.
Gretna FC 2008 play in the Lowland League - tier 5 of the Scottish footballing pyramid - the last senior league together with the Highland League.
Gretna escaped relegation last season by a hair's-breadth, needing to beat Edinburgh University to avoid the drop. There were only 3 league wins all season. Things needed to change.
New director of football Nikki White wants to see the club get back to its community roots and bring through the best young players in the area. Vinnie Parker has been appointed manager to try and achieve that goal. Progression would be avoiding a last day relegation decider - but can the club aspire to more?
Gretna did once "live the dream" - making it all the way to the Scottish Premiership in 2007. It was a dream that many thought was doomed from the start - and so it proved. The story is touched on in this film but widely documented elsewhere on the internet.
Follow the series to experience the fortunes of the new look playing squad, and backroom staff, in the fiercely competitive Lowland league.
In this series I will also seek to provide a flavour of the towns that feature in the Lowland league as well as the culture and history that surrounds Gretna. There will also be an occasional trip into the Highland League. It's going to be a great Scottish footballing journey.
Subscribe - and share to anyone with an interest in honest football. There's a lot more to the beautiful game than multi-millionaire players and unaffordable season tickets.
Also - download the Gretna FC 2008 App - and come down to Raydale Park!!

      In history, Annan was the first township for people crossing the land border at Gretna (before Gretna existed!) and heading West. 7 miles from the land border but was often attacked and burned by troops crossing the Solway Firth at low tide from the Cumbrian coast. So - although not on the land border, the town is on the sea border between England and Scotland.

    Great to see these small communities thrice after they buy ( from what I understood ) the land they live on and work on. Come to think of it, as a foreigner, it's hard to wrap my head around one entity ( real estate company ?
