Brechin City is designated "city" due to its Cathedral. That's what happens from time to time....Chichester City FC e.g.The Brechin City FC is located in Angus County in Eastern Scotland and the city has a population of just over 7,000. They joined the Scottish League 3rd division when it was formed in 1923 but the division's history has had quite an "up and down" until its recent re-formation.
Brechin have played football since 1906 and settled at Glebe Park after the First World War in 1919 as two local clubs the Harps and the Hearts united. The club can host around 4,000 people.
In 2016-17, the club won promotion by the play offs from the Scottish League One to the Championship, where they are struggling.
Their present record is position 10/10....29 games played a goal difference of -46 with 4 points from 4 draws. Their nearest "rivals" are Dumbarton on 27 points and at the top of the division are St Mirren with 66 points.
On 24th March St Mirren beat Brechin 20 and condemned them to relegation. Wins this season for City include two pre-season friendlies over Spartans (Non-league) and Montrose, a win over Forfar in the BetFred Cup (aet) and a win over Buckie Thistle in the Scottish league Cup.
They are a few games away from becoming the first UK league club to go an entire season without a league win.
