Adam's 22 yarder was palmed round the post but Culter pulled a goal back in the 52nd minute, Shand was fouled on the edge of the box and WILSON stepped up to hammer the ball past the wall and the away 'keeper. A minute later and itwas all square. Shand laid the ball into the path of YOUNGSON who perfectly placed his shot passed the diving Anderson. Youngson shot wide and then McBain's surging run into the box saw his cross come shot just fly past the upright. Stott then saw his goal bound effort cleared by Smith. Farquhar saved well at the second attempt to deny Berlie and then the home 'keeper had to be smart off his line to save at the feet of Smith. Farquhar was called into action again saving a Smith piledriver at the front post. In the 89th minute Farquhar pulled off a great save from Berlie again and ther somehow cleared the danger from the on rushing O'Leary. Shand had a great chance to score in the last minute, but Anderson easily collected his weak effort from Wilson's cross.

Culter: John Farquhar, Mike Brown, Colin Craik, Adam Wilson, Kevin Garioch, Ryan Pressley, Allan Youngson, Donny Adam, Andy Gregory, Hugh Robertson, Ryan Stott. Substitutes: Bruce Smith, Nicky Gall, Martin Shand, George McBain Martin Cooper.

Dick Brown Memorial Trophy, awarded to the person who has done most for the Club in the

past season other than for playing services, was presented to our Honorary President

Eric J Duncan by Mrs Valerie Jamieson. Eric has made an outstanding contribution to Culter

received the new Trophy from donor Larry Barclay. Honorary Vice President Larry has

donated our Player of the Year Trophy since 1971/72 and has replaced them from time to

time. Colin Craik has been with us since 2003/04 and through this time has proven to be a

valued member of the squad. Colin has played in a variety of positions and always done so

with enthusiasm. This season is no different, he has played at least five positions in the team

and adapted himself excellent in all these. This is turning out to be a good year for Colin as

he is due to be a Dad later this year. Congratulations on both accounts!!
