Highland League sides Buckie Thistle and Inverurie Locos played in the first of a quickfire double header between the clubs at Victoria Park. In a tight game it was the Buckie Thistle, also known as “The Jags” who got the 3 points -- Craig Macmillan’s header on 66 minutes decided the match.

Second Half
Four days later, it would be Locos who emerged the winner in the Morrison Motors Aberdeenshire Shield when they reversed Saturday’s result to record a 2-0 victory over their Moray coast rivals (and current holders of the Shield, a competition for 9 Aberdeenshire-based teams)
Ryan Broadhurst got the Locos of to a winning start when he turned in an Andy Bisset cross at the far post, and the game was put beyond Buckie when a hotly disputed 71st minute penalty was converted by Scott Buchan. Buckie’s defender Paul Lamberton was later sent off.
Locos will play Fraserburgh for a place in the final.
