Just seeing Dudgeon park brings back some fantastic memories. I played four and a half years for Brora Rangers in the early 80s with some great players and management. I'm so proud for what they have achieved until now. I would like to see them play in the Scottish leagues as I know they would do really well. The people of Sutherland are very friendly and welcoming. Thanks for the video Sam.

Alan Shields Hamilton South Lanarkshire Scotland. Sam what I want to know is when are you filming a Wick Academy video ? as they are the football club the furthest North in the entire U.K they are even further North than Brorra Rangers are. The Most Northerly football club in Europe is Tromso how currently play in Norway's second teir Tromso is 40 miles inside The Arctic circle even in Norway it is considered a long distance to travel to Tromso is also the most Northerly University Town in all of Europe. Tromso are famous from there home game against Chelsea in the 1998 Cup Winners Cup it was Ruud Gullit's very last game as Chelsea manager & Chelsea lost 1 - 0 you could barely see the pitch the snow was that bad. So some day Iblook forward to seeing your video on Tromso. Found out yesterday even The falkland islands have a football team apparently they play teams mostly from U.K Military Ship that dock there apart from that they play in The Island games against the likes of Jersey & so on but it's difficult for The Falkland islands to get games because geographically they are so remote. Keep Safe Sam.

@@FootyAdventures Both Wick & Tromso would be real adventures . Fancy going to a Wick Academy game myself as you sead about Brorra not many people venture that far North. Inverness & Forris is the furthest North I have ever been. Fancy going to watch Plymouth Argyle at home some day when things eventually get better whenever that might be. The story of Darlington F.C. might be an interesting one to tell as would The Story of Scarborough Athletic. Corinthian-Casuals ( Tolworth London ) might be a good club for you to vist in the future. Along with F.C Santa Claus Of Rovaniemi Finland. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/FC_Santa_Claus. Just some video vlog ideas for the future.
