They play in the South of Scotland League , although they have announced that they will not participate in 2008&ndash 09 following the resignation of their manager and the failure to form a committee to run the club. History They were formed in 1995 as at the time it was felt by those who formed the club that Stranraer F.C. Stranraer were fielding players based outwith the town and not giving local players a chance to exhibit their talents. A crowd of 100 turned up for the club s first ever home game at Stranraer Academy Playing Fields, where the club continue to play their home matches. However this enthusiasm was not maintained and crowds are low. Nonetheless, the club has proven quite successful in the South of Scotland League , which they joined upon their creation. They finished second in their inaugural season and between seasons 2002&ndash 03 in Scottish football 2002&ndash 03 and 2004&ndash 05 in Scottish football 2004&ndash 05 they won three consecutive league titles.
