YOUNGSTERS from Ardencaple FC in Helensburgh travelled to Manchester recently for a special day out at one of Britain's most famous football grounds.
Players from the club’s 2007, 2009 and 2010 age groups travelled to the Etihad Stadium to watch Manchester City beat Sheffield United 2-0 on December 29.
As well as taking in the game, the Caple party also enjoyed the use of the club’s indoor all-weather surface and a tour of the stadium.
