A century of my favourite place to watch a game in the whole country
Wee Man having a look before the game
100 years of brilliance
Utterly glorious
It may not have running water but its served the club well
It will be a sad day when its mothballed, hopefully not taken down though
You could build an ace terrace there. There will be a new pavillion there soon enough
The town pretty much finishes at this goal
The steps to the car park from the pitch
The calm before the storm
Seaforth kick off with 10 men
Come in. No one bites, apart from the midges
Wee Man having a close look at the warm ups
Villa keeper Paul Robertson, he could have read a newspaper tonight
Villa attack
What do you say at half time when you are 5 v 0 down?
A corner to Villa
Wee Man showing his colours
We got chatting to the chairman before the game and he gave Wee Man a gift. Top man (excuse Wee Man’s gob full of sweeties)
The Old Packhorse Brig is as good as next door to the ground
The Aberlour Distillery is across the road from Villa Park
The founder of the distillery James Fleming’s grave stone faces the distillery from the graveyard across the road
A tree in a layby
The Victoria Bridge just down the river a bit from Villa park. It’s shaky
Kind locals leave free scoops at the brig
An even shakier bridge leading to Villa Park (this path is part of the Spey Way)
The Bridge from Villa Park
Entering via the back door
