    Nice try, but no. This one is from a city, but a city way further north.

    We're on a different wavelength as I can't for the life of me see the connection.
    But no...

    Very wild - Galashiels isn't a city.

    Right country though.

    The women used to meet there on their way home from doing the laundry in a nearby loch.

    You got the first four letters correct.

    They play in the UK's most northerly city.

    Thurso isn't a city - it's a town.

    That's it - Highland League side Clachnacudden.
    It's an an anglicised version of the Gaelic term Clach na Cudden, which means stone of the tubs. Women used to meet there on the way to and from doing their laundry in Loch Ness for a rest and chat - and would put their tubs on the stone. The stone is still there, outside of the club's Grant St stadium in Inverness

    Over to you.
