That's a seismic result at the Broch. 

BT with the momentum now, but don't they have a reputation for Hibsing things?

I think that reputation belongs more to Fraserburgh. Apparently Turriff were very unlucky not to win last night, they're a decent team, just not picking up any points. Nervous times with Fort 2.0 creeping up behind them. It's going to be an exciting end to the season, 5 clubs still in with a chance of winning it and possible promotion, and 3 in the battle against likely demotion after a play off with almost certainly Banks O' Dee.

Think that's Brechin City punted out into longshot territory on the title. Hopefully there will be no more shenanigans on trying to move to the LL and the pyramid can bed in with the format that's in place now.

Fraserburgh,  with the slightest of easier runs ins, and i do say slightest as their tougher matches are spread out between what you would call bankers.  Some have a tough 7 days because of the cup, Brechin with Locos Brora(c) Huntly,  Buckie with Locos(c)Locos Brora after saturday,s game with Forres.

Rothes could have a say in this winning their two games in hand could put them 5 points behind and having Buckie and Broch still  to play, they seem to be a very sticky side with the equal best goals against record in the league, they don't score much though.

 

On the bottom end i think Forts 3rd team of the season have left it too late to mount a challenge, Turriff having a massive 3 points against Deveronvale.

Games at Clach and Strathspey postponed, 9.30 am inspection at Nairn. Probably more postponements incoming.

Not good, could mean Rod's second Saturday afternoon in a row stuck at home!

Apologies if this has been cleared up before (which it surely will have), but if Bonnyrigg go up at the expense of Elgin would that mean two relegations from the Highland league?

No, the HL is pretty flexible on numbers. If it happened a couple more times they might have to consider splitting into divisions 1 and 2. 

(Assumptions rather than firm knowledge)
