William Hill Scottish
Cup
Saturday 26th
September
A
depleted Gretna FC 2008 side were no match for the Highland League leaders in
this William Hill Scottish Cup first round clash.
Nonetheless
the Gretna lads stuck to their task bravely and at half time it was all square
despite Formartine having the bulk of the play. Scott Barbour opened the
scoring for the home side in 12 minutes but Dean Smith restored the balance
just before half time.
The
second half was more evenly balanced but Johnny Crawford restored the advantage
for Formartine on the hour mark. As Gretna strove to get back on terms the
referee awarded a penalty to the Highland side which Garry Wood put away to
settle matters.
