About Raydale Park

Raydale Park is a football stadium in Gretna, Scotland, that served as the home ground of Gretna until the club resigned from the Scottish Football League in 2008. Gretna played most of their home games at Raydale during their existence in English non-League football and then during their period in the Scottish Football League. HistoryGretna played most of their home matches in the 2007–08 season at Fir Park, Motherwell because Raydale did not meet SPL requirements. This meant a 150-mile round trip for fans from the Gretna area. Gretna also played a UEFA Cup match (a 1–5 defeat to Derry City) at Fir Park because Raydale was inadequate for that competition. Gretna had planned to leave Raydale Park and move to an eco-stadium in Gretna Green. These plans never came to fruition as the club suffered severe financial problems during the 2007–08 season.
