Huntly were keen to add to the great result they had at the weekend against Dyce and knew Formartine was going to be a tough task.
A newly cut pitch aswell as being heavy and sloping away aswell as the rain was going to prove a tough ask of both teams.
Huntly created a few chances before Greg finally broke the deadlock after 28 minutes with a surging run from midfield and into the box and fired past the keeper.1-0 Huntly.
Half time 0-1.
Nathan for Gary was the only change at half time.
Huntly were keen to get the goals in the 2nd half and waited only 10 minutes before Jack Browndribbled past a few defenders and beat the keeper from 10 yards.good finish.2-0 Huntly.
Jack added his 2nd and Huntlys 3rd with a left foot shot into the net,3-0 full time.
Line up - Jamie,Fraser,Craig,Cameron,Bradley,Lewis,Jack S,Greg,Gavin,Jack B,Gary
Subs - Ross,Nathan,Alex,Connor,Ryan,Paul Clark.
Huntly have had an excellent first season in the A- League this year and finished fourth and it will be worked on through the summer and progress it into next season and hopefully do better than this year.
All players played well tonight after a long hard season and hard work and are worthy of the break now.
Positives from tonight were the debut of Paul Clark in which we see is a promising player with alot of potential and hopefully see alot more of him next season and beyond, The back four keeping the strikers at bay, Jamie keeping a clean sheet and gaining confidence in the last few games and the workrate of all players on the pitch tonight was very good in the conditions we had to play in.
And last but not least to all the parents who braved the weather at Pitmedden and supported the lads all through the season as always, you make it worth our while doing this year in year out as you all are brilliant!!
Enjoy the long lies on Sundays as it wont be long before it all starts over again!
Trials next Friday 18th and following Friday 25th, All players to come along and if anyone else wants to try out for next season they are more than welcome.

Huntly today faced Formartine at a cold and windy Huntly, and were hoping for a good performance after last weeks shocking display and the players were confident aswell as us coaches they could do it today and forget about last weeks display and ran out comfortable 3-0 winners.
Huntly started the way they were asked to and were out to prove that last weeks defeat was just a one-off and get back to winning ways.
Formartine got a corner on 3 minutes in which the Huntly defence dealt with excellently and from the corner Huntly broke out and Greg's pass found Gary who ran onto the ball and pressurised the defence and managed to get the ball and lob the keeper from 20 yards,Huntly up and running.1-0.
Huntly piled on the pressure and Nathan,Lewis,Greg and Jack all had chances to get a goal but failed to hit the back of the net.
10 minutes played and some good play from midfield with great passing and vision Jack Brown dribbled down the wing and into the box beat 3 defenders and slipped it past the keeper, Brilliant finish,2-0.
Jack Stevenson on for Jack Brown 22minutes.
Huntly had lots of possession and created alot of chances and played good attacking and passing football,some of the best this season actually.2-0 Half time.
Huntly came out second half and started as they finished with lots of possession and passing and nearly scored after 2 minutes after the restart when Gavin found Nathan who shot just wide of the post.
Gavin then saw his attempt saved by the keeper a few minutes later.
42 minutes played and Nathan scored from a corner taken by Gary from the right and put it past the keeper.3-0 and cruising,
Nathan then had an excellent shot just go over the bar when he attempted a bicycle kick from 10 yards out,would of been goal of the season contender.
55 minutes Craig,Connor and jack on, Gary,Nathan and Lewis off.
Connor nearly had his name on the scoresheet but his effort just went past the post.unlucky.
3-0 Full Time.
Starting 11- Alex,Fraser,Cameron,Bradley,Sam,Greg,Gavin,Lewis,Jack,Nathan, Gary
Subs - Connor,Craig and Jack stevenson
Man of the match was Sam Martin,only missed 1 challenge whole game,defended well,attacked well and read the game excellently aswell as organised defence.Brilliant energy aswell.
If anyone deserved a goal today it was Sam.
All players should be proud of today's performance, all did excellent.
Fraser- Great defending and attacking.
Bradley & Cameron - solid in defence
Lewis- played well on the wing,
Gavin - great energy even tho struggling a bit,
Jack B- gave his all even tho not 100%,

20 Minutes played and from a corner taken by Jack Brown found Lewis and his pass found Nathan and he turned the defender and beat the keeper.2-1.

Huntly went 3-1 up when Sam's cross found Ryan in the box and he struck it in.3-1 HT.
The second half started off with Huntly in a good position and had alot of possession but just couldn't seem to get the goals to finish the match off.
55 Minutes and Huntly found themselves struggling and Westdyke got a goal to put more pressure on us when they were awarded a free-kick at the half-way line and the striker was on hand to chip the ball over our keeper for 3-2.
68 minutes played and Huntly finally managed to get a 4th goal when Garys corner found its way swinging in at the near post and the keeper let it slip through his legs.4-2.FT
