AWAY GAME v NAIRN COUNTY FC
BREEDON HIGHLAND LEAGUE
STATION PARK, NAIRN IV12 5NQ
SATURDAY 21 SEPTEMBER – KO 3pm
We’re still on the road as we speed along the coast to Station Park and our first meeting of the season against Nairn County.
Always a tough encounter, and as Nairn currently sit in tenth place in the league, and have eleven more points, Saturday’s game will be no different than the previous ones.
It’s been a bit topsy-turvy in the league this season with, apart from the top two or three teams, no result can be forecast as teams have been winning, losing and drawing in no logical pattern. There is only twelve points between ourselves and the eighth placed team in the league after ten games, and with another twenty-four games to go plenty’s about to happen!!
Nairn have in the last few weeks lost five, won three and drawn two but ominously have won their last two – a sequence that needs to be broken…..
No doubt Ryan and the boys will have that front of their minds and we wish them all the best – and lets hope we’re leaving Nairn on Saturday with at least a point ….three would be better….
WEDNESDAY’S MATCH v CLACHNACUDDIN
As we said previously this was the third match against Clach this season and unfortunately we have been on the wrong side of victory in all three. Wednesday’s victory puts them in a very creditable fifth place in the table after their strong early season form.
Again it was a very close match, and as the P&J newspaper stated, it was a hard fought two-nil victory and with the second goal coming in the eighty-ninth minute I think that would concur with the P&J’s assessment and there was little to separate the teams – which shows that we are very much moving in the right direction – and as I have said previously when we have a fully fit squad, I predict we can elevate ourselves from the relegation position we are currently in.
Following on from his two goals against us on Saturday, Conor Bunce drilled a magnificent shot home from about twenty-five yards leaving Jags’ keeper, Euan Storrier with no chance….an excellent goal.
We did come close a couple of times but generally there was not a great deal of dominant penalty box action and Clach doubled their tally in the eighty-ninth minute when substitute Mackenzie was on target.

£7700 TO BE WON – THIS WEEK’S JACKPOT PRIZE
As ever we conclude this week’s meanderings offering you a jackpot win of £7700 on our online fundraising lottery – click here if you want to play…
LOTTERY CH-CH-CHANGES
As intimated a couple of weeks ago after the current jackpot, has been won therefore completing that game there will be couple of changes.
There will still be a weekly prize of £100 for a consolation winner if their entry matches four of the five numbers drawn, however instead of a weekly increase in the jackpot of £100, this will now be increased monthly.
The game is to forecast 5 winning numbers, which are drawn at random, from 1-20. The 5 numbers chosen are to be marked by a cross (X).
- The Jackpot prize starts at £1,000 and the game continues until it is won and starts afresh. As applicable, the Jackpot increases by £100 immediately after the first draw in each calendar month, up to a maximum of £5,000. The Jackpot is then capped at £5,000 until it is won in a weekly draw.
- If more than one player has 5 winning numbers, the Jackpot will be divided equally among the winning players.
- Should no entry forecast all 5 winning numbers, then any player matching 4 numbers will be entered into a draw for a single Consolation Prize of £100.
- THE DRAW will take place every SUNDAY at 7pm unless otherwise advised.
- The entrant named on the ticket must be at least 16 years of age.
- All winners will be notified.
