Freeze blow for Nairn title drive

Nairn County boss Les Fridge is preparing his team for Friday's trip to leaders Forres Mechanics.

NAIRN County's Highland League clash at home to Huntly on Saturday was postponed due to a frozen pitch.

Only two matches in the division beat the weather as Fraserburgh beat Formartine United 3-2 and Wick Academy strolled to a 4-1 home win against Strathspey Thistle.

It means Nairn's last taste of action was their 6-2 romp against Rothes on December 3.

Les Fridge's team will try to push themselves firmly into title contention on Friday night when they travel to league leaders Forres Mechanics, looking to trim the five-point gap.

Seven nights later, the Can Cans visit Station Park in part two of the festive double header.
