	1st Round North Regional Cup — Burghead Thistle 1 v Culter 3 (at Forest Park, Burghead) Half Time: 1 — 1 Burghead Scorer: Andrew Stewart (18 mins). Culter Scorers: Lewis McKimmie (4 mins), Martin Shand (78 mins) and Allan Youngson (89 mins penalty)
On a glorious Autumn afternoon Culter struggled to beat a stubborn Burghead team. Despite most of the play they could not break down a well organised defence. Culter took the lead in 4 minutes when Dod McBain slipped the ball to Lewis McKIMMIE who drilled the ball into the net. Burghead levelled in 18 minutes when an uncharacteristic mistake by Kevin Ganoch allowed Andrew STEWART to fire in a good equaliser. Half Time: 1 — 1. Culter went ahead in the 78th minute after some good outfield play with Martin SHAND hitting home. Culter made sure of victory when much to everyone’s surprise Referee Gavin Deane awarded a penalty which Allan YOUNGSON slotted home in the 89 minute. A big improvement is required by Culter before next week’s critical Superleague match against Sunnybank at Crombie Park.
