The Brechin City Thread

Really enjoyable game tonight. Pretty even first half with very few chances but Brechin went for it in the second. Quite a few excellent chances but they had no luck in front of goal. Brechin hoping that Formartine take something at Buckie to help them.

The Buckie/Formartine result won’t affect the last day. Even if Buckie don’t win that and Brechin win their games they’ll still be within 3 points of each other going into the game.  The only team that can fuck it up being a last day decider is Brechin. 
 

Remaining fixtures before the last day shoot out - 

Brechin have Fraserburgh (H), Clach (A), Keith (A)
Buckie have Formartine (H), Strathspey (A)

Buckie will beat Strathspey so that’s another 3 points for them. Brechin will beat Clach and Keith so that’s 6 points for them. Their game in hand with Fraserburgh is the key one.  The draw last night with Brora effectively guarantees a winner takes all clash on the final day, unless form goes out the window and there’s a shock in there somewhere.

My point about the Formartine result was that if they were to take anything from Buckie it would give Brechin the slight comfort of a point on the final day winning them the league if they win their other three matches.

Given that Clach have very recently taken points off Fraserburgh and BoD, I wouldn't necessarily say that an away win in Inverness is a mortgage banker.  😬

Fraserburgh game next week is just as important as the Buckie game. Fail to win that and it'll be a case of going to Buckie just to witness their championship celebration. Great fun.

Simple fact of the matter is that if Brechin can't beat Fraserburgh in two attempts (or drop points to Clach in a vital game) then they have absolutely no right to promotion.

Buckie's game against Formartine definitely isn't a gimme so you might still be able to mess up that Fraserburgh game. Having a string of midweek games stacked up against top 5 opponents for the end of the season was a bad break for a club with central belt based players.

That isn’t true at all. If we only draw against Fraserburgh and win the other two games. We go to Buckie within three points of them. Win there and we win the title.

We haven’t bottled it as others keep saying,  we are a few games away from winning the league.

Find it strange to award a manager a new contract when he has done nothing.Last few game Brechin have bottled it ,also Kirk doesn’t know how to change it when the opposition sit in and then hit on the counter,Brora did it perfectly on Wednesday night.
