Oban Saints gifted a full set of strips to Neil Matheson from 'Friends of Pebane' who is leaving on an aid mission to Mozambique. Pebane is a remote area with very few people having the basic essentials in life. 90 per cent do not have electricity so Neil is
 taking solar panels as well as basic medical essentials. The people in the area are mad keen on football and the new set
 of strips will be well received. Argyll and Bute Council's football development department also donated footballs
 and training equipment to go along with the strips. Pictured is Martin Rae, Argyll and Bute Council's football
 development officer, David Buchanan, secretary of Oban Saints and Neil Matheson.

With the whole of the Scottish Amateur League programme was wiped out for the third week in a row due to snow covered pitches and hard frost. Oban Saints and Tarbert managed to arrange a friendly match on the 3g pitch at Oban High School on Saturday 11th December 2010 which had thawed out just in time to allow the game to go ahead. Our picture shows Tarbert's Conner Crawford (left) and Craig MacEwan challenge for the ball in midfield.  Saints won this game 8-0. Photos: Euan Paterson, The Oban Times 

 Allan MacKay waits for the ball, but it's cut out by a Tarbert defender.
