Brora Rangers beat Thurso 7-1 last night in the North of Scotland Cup at Wick's Harmsworth Park. It was 2-1 at half time. Most of the Thurso players had played in the summer league decider the night before and tired in the second half.

In the 2nd minute Thurso's James Murray was clean through and his shot hit the Brora keeper.  Brora went 2-0 up, but Thurso then had the best of play and James Murray won and scored a penalty to make it 2-1.

Brora ran riot in the second half and in particular speedy winger Andrew Greig caused lots of problems.

Wick beat Clach 3-1 and now meet Brora in the semi-final on 18 or 19 Sept.

Wick Groats won the Caithness Summer League in dramatic fashion at Ham Park in Dunnet tonight. Graham MacNab scored in injury time against Pentland Utd to make it 4-3 and clinch the championship.

Pentland Utd scored first but Groats hit back twice to make it 2-1 at half-time in front of a large crowd who were bitten alive by midges. Groats scored early in the 2nd half and were cruising. The tackles were flying in and Grant MacNab had to be treated twice. Plenty of bookings but no red cards from ref Bob Gunn.

James Murray lashed a shot into the goal mid-way through the 2nd half and it was game on. Substitute Philip Makhouli scored the equaliser with 10 mins remaining and sent the large home crowd wild. However, Groats kept plugging away and Graham MacNab scored in injury time.

Both teams had the same points, but as Groats had a draw and a win against Utd, it meant they took the title, despite having an inferior goal difference.

Wick Academy beat Halkirk Utd 7-1 in the North Cup last night at Harmswoth Park. Halkirk matched the Highland League side for 30 mins but it was all over at half-time as Wick went 3-0 up. The score was 6-0 before Chris Sutherland pulled one back. Neal Clark saved a Sam MacKay penalty and nearly saved Richard MacAdie's penalty in the 83rd minute.

Halkirk beat Academy this time last year in the same cup, but the Scorries are much better prepared this year and will look to get a flying start against Strathspey Thistle in the first game of the new league season on Saturday.
