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...

Apologies folks, Ellon Thistle have no game this weekend - so that is the end of our football for 2025.
Great Western's pitch is unavailable and they weren't keen on switching the tie to the Meadows.
We tried our best, so please don't blame us if you get dragged out Xmas shopping!

Three goals, a clean sheet, and a hitting the woodwork hat-trick - no wonder the lads have a semi to look forward to!
Thanks for all your support on a cold day today.
