In their first league game since August, Thistle struggled to get their game going against a strong Echt side.
Behind early doors to 3 goals that included a couple of superb long range efforts, the lads took a while to settle into the game. Better in 2nd half.

Ellon Thistle drop out of the Aberdeen FC Trophy after a disappointing performance against a strong Meldrum United side who showed more desire on the day.
All the best to Meldrum for the rest of their season.

Unsurprising news given the weather but tomorrow's friendly match has been cancelled.
Stay in, stay warm, and stay safe (and hope that the white stuff disappears before next weekend).

Ellon Thistle cannot wait for football to return in the New Year. To get things going a little early, we have arranged a friendly game with St Marnans so that both teams can get back up to speed.
Weather dependent as always at this time of year.
We hope to see you there!

For Xmas, Throwback Thursday looks back to the Ellon Gala football tournament of 2009.
We see a member of the Ellon Thistle family acting as referee and appearing to be about to have a word with a current squad member.
You can spot another ex-player in the background too...
