Gretna 2008 FC (Raydale Park)
14 minute walk from Gretna Green station · South West
Gretna 2008 FC is a football club from the town of Gretna that currently competes in the Lowland League. Founded in 2008 as a phoenix club following the demise of the original 1946 team, it is managed and owned by a supporters' trust.
This community-focused club is rich in local history, featuring a badge with an anvil to represent the famous Gretna Green blacksmith’s shop. Visitors can see the team play in their distinct black and grey colors at Raydale Park, the ground the club successfully returned to in 2009.
At the stadium, you can experience the passion of a club that rose from bankruptcy to become a founder member of the Lowland League. Beyond the men’s game, you can also support the Ladies team, which launched in 2024 to compete in the SWFL South League.
