Nairn washed out of action again


By SPP Reporter



NAIRN County's Highland League fixture at Fort William on Saturday was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

Les Fridge’s Nairn side have not played since their 1-1 draw at Formartine United on January 7.

Wet weather also put paid to Clach’s home match against Rothes, meaning the Inverness side have been out of action since December 23.

Second-placed title favourites Forres Mechanics suffered their second successive defeat as they were edged out 3-2 in a cracker at Wick Academy. This leaves the long-time leaders two points adrift of Cove Rangers, but they still have two games in hand.

Cove, though, could have heaped further agony on Forres, but they were held to a 2-2 at home against Keith.

Missed chances cost champions Buckie Thistle dearly as bottom side Strathspey Thistle earned a 2-2 draw at Victoria Park, while Fraserburgh are fourth following their 5-1 cruise against Turriff United.

Huntly had no answer to Steve Paterson’s Formartine United as they were beaten 3-0 and Lossiemouth were 2-0 victors at Brora Rangers and Inverurie Locos were 1-0 winners at Deveronvale.
