At the time of writing we have just come off the back of a great 3-2 victory over Turriff United in the Scottish Cup which sets us up with a tie away to Falkirk. This is what being in the Scottish Cup is all about. It will be a great day out for everyone connected with the club and one we are all looking forward to. They are a better side than they showed on the day and we will have to be at our best to get something Before that though we have some seriously tough games to from the game. contend with so the Scottish Cup will have to go on the backburner for just now.

How did you assess the performances in both games? After the euphoria of the cup final win, we were swiftly back in to league duty against an in form Huntly side. I made a few changes to freshen up the squad as this was something I felt we had to do to keep the fitness levels high. To be fair we played some very good football, especially in the first half and went on to comfortably see the game out. Strathspey Thistle was next and for as long as I can remember, it has never been easy to win up there. I told the guys that all I wanted was a result at the end of the day and thankfully the guys put in a shift It was a great result for the club. We knew who we and we again won to keep up our excellent run. In both would face in the next round before the game so I used games, I felt we were dominant which is a very good that in my favour. The game itself was great for the sign as it shows that the guys are focussed on every neutral with Turriff probably edging the first half with game and have not allowed out standards to slip. us controlling the second. Considering the majority of the lads played 120 minutes on the Wednesday it was a That was followed up by progress in the great shift.
