Your Captain for this Home match against Gullane is the legendary Fergus Young
This match has been going on since 1963 but no records kept until 1974,
but since then they do not make good reading - Blairgowrie 9- Gullane 31 and 3 draws – However after our away match although down 5
to 3 we are still are in with a shout so still a great deal to play for. We are playing for the ALEC MASON PLAQUE which is currently
held by Gullane- so hopefully we can regain the trophy !!!
