Build Up: Both sides will be looking
to start 2006 with with a win as reigning Champions Huntly entertain
Buckie Thistle at Christie Park.
The Jags have been somewhat of a bogey team for the black and golds
over the last few years with a goal-less draw back in August and
a 2-0 defeat in the first round of the Aberdeenshire Shield.
You'd have to go back over five years for the last time Huntly
won a home league meeting versus Buckie. That was in October 2000
when Martin Stewart, Gary Nicol and Eddie Copland netted in a 3-1
win. Steven Rattray grabbed a consolation for the visitors.
Onto present day, Duncan Shearer's side currently sit in 3rd place
with 32 points while Billy Anderson side are in 9th on 26pts both
having played 16 games. click
