The “old farm” derby as it is affectionately know. Or the Derby della Mart to Italians.
Our most local senior team
Another very local senior team
The Locos Social Club Library is a good one
Turrah emerge for kick off
We braved the elements unlike these folk
The terrace was stappit full
The yellow ball in happier times
A wet Harlaw Park
A famous Highland League quirk
The adjacent concrete plant
A Locos short corner
Harlaw under the lights and rain (as we were forced to dump the ball in the car)
Not sure if this was even open. Scarves obtained in the bar
The enclosure drain had sprung a leak
If Turrah are in town then so is this flag
A lot of the game was battled out in the middle of the park
Gaffney missed the pen but scored the rebound off Dey’s legs
This guy was immense all game. David Dey in the Turriff goal
Turriff celebrate their second. A Callan Grey howitzer
Turriff celebrate their their third of the afternoon
