17/4/2011Buckie Inflict Academy’s Second Defeat In A Week
Buckie Thistle....4.......Wick Academy...1 (half-time 1-1) Reporter - Noel Donaldson ANOTHER painful result for Wick Academy players and fans might be forgiven if they wished that the season was over. With a makeshift side, minus several key members, you would never have gone a bundle on the Scorries to win, if you were a betting person, particularly after Wednesday’s disaster against Nairn, and even a draw forecast would have been long odds.
