The Buccaneer at the service station in Elgin is a reminder that the RAF station at Lossiemouth used to be a RNAS base (Royal Navy Air Station).

SAM, I think I enjoy these types of vids as much as you do. Being American and not having the funds to travel you're videos are absolute class. If you have the chance and means I'd love to see any sides that are located in the Deeside area . Thanks in advance and keep up the the great job.

Been buzzing for this one! Forres Mechanics have a brilliant ground, love that stand

Alan Shields Hamilton South Lanarkshire Scotland When you where in Forris You should of visited Logie Park home of Forris Thistle the other football club in Forris. When Pollok played them they Where in Junior Football Playing in The North Region Junior League system. Personally I love these kind of vlogs when you just rock up at grounds as The Americans would say & chance your arm if you can get in to the ground or not. Keep Safe.

The dolphin emblem at Nairn County might have something to do with the Moray Firth, the stretch of coast where Nairn is located. Dolphins are regularly seen in the Firth, I've seen them myself from Fort George, not a million miles from Nairn, (but Chanonry Point is the best place to see them).

Hope you enjoyed speaking to my father-in-law, Brian. The guys a legend. Very friendly and accommodating. Great man.

Just found this channel. Love it. You've got to get over to Fort William - such a spectacular setting for a ground. I went to a match there once, I was able to just walk right in and pick my spot. I felt so guilty I went back out and went up to the guy on a gate and paid my money. After all, these clubs need every penny they can get.

I can easy get you into Grant park if you are ever back up in Lossie! Great video again mate🙌🏻

Just watched your Ross County video where you arrived just before Christmas but didn't get in. It might sound odd (like supporting Hartlepool whilst also having a sweet spot for Darlington) but I quite like ICT at the same time as REALLY liking Ross County. Love Dingwall and will be going up there en route to Ullapool again in about 2 months time. Used regularly to stay on the caravan site which is directly next to Victoria Park (which is also the name of Hartlepool's ground). I enjoyed your video of North Yorkshire clubs and Marske is only a few miles from where I previously lived on Teesside. I saw your video visiting Boro (which you seemed to enjoy). ST holder there.... Keep the videos coming!

Iain Stewart (no relation) was a goal machine in the Highland League for Lossie. He moved to Inverness during their initial move to the Scottish League, I think for £30 k. He would later manage Peterhead.

The plane is no longer at the petrol station in Elgin, it was moved down to Fife just a few days ago.

When I was cycling from Lands End to John O'Groats I passed Dingwall there just happened to be a match on Ross County Vs St Mirren an evening game, in the Scottish cup well it would be rude not to right!

The Moray Firth is a common place to see dolphins so I guess that's why Nairn choose the dolphin. I remember coming to a Nairn-wick game probably 10 years back and sitting on that grass bank on a gorgeous sunny day.

Fun fact, they actually pulled that plane from RAF lossiemouth to the petrol station over 2 nights down the main road.. also the plane is a buchaneer I believe which is also what the petrol station is called

What do you video on and do you do all the editing?

Little known fact that the capacity of Ross County is greater than the population of the town its located in (Dingwall). Also its the Scottish team I support due to being a small underdog team that is so remote and we both have County in the name I suppose. Just didn't want to support one of the bigger clubs so chose the Staggies.

Hiya Sam, I'm glad Dundee got Promoted to the Scottish Premier League, did Kelty Hearts get promotion aswel?

There are LOADS of dolphins in the Moray Firth (or near to Inverness, Nairn, Elgin)..... There are tourist boats taking people out to see the dolphins especially from near Inverness.

Brian looked like Alex Ferguson !

Excellent video. Just don’t confuse a northerly latitude with the Highlands. You didn’t get into the Highlands until you were a few miles west of Forres. Strangely, the majority of clubs in the Highland League are in the north-east but fair play to the Highlandmen, they thought of it first.

The reason there's a fighter jet at the services is due to the RAF base in Lossiemouth

come to a forres home game

That was Raf lossiemouth planes the one in petrol station he miss the runway

lossiemouth has an RFA base
