A David Cox double, plus a late Michael Paton goal, helped Brechin City to a comfortable 3-0 weekend win in Huntly.

Andy Kirk’s side, sadly, remain off the pace in the race to win the Highland League, going into Wednesday night’s game at Keith seven points adrift.

But Saturday’s victory shows they won’t give up without a fight and are determined to take the race as far as they can.

City have bolstered their attacking options with the addition of striker Jordan Northcott on loan from St Johnstone until the end of the season.The 20 year-old has been involved with the Saints matchday squad on a number of occasions this season.
