A massive weekend in the Breedon Highland League! Brechin City get a huge win at Glebe Park, where they beat title rivals Brora Rangers despite going down to ten men early on after Brad McKay’s red card. A result that blows the title race wide open. We also look at the chaos at Princess Royal Park as Clachnacuddin left with a late, highly‑contested winner against Deveronvale. Two managerial departures as Strathspey Thistle parted ways with Ryan Esson after their 6–0 loss to Forres Mechanics, and Lossiemouth dismissed Steve Porter following defeat to Inverurie Locos. We break down the performances, context, and reaction inside both clubs. Elsewhere in the league:

• Keith’s incredible run continues with a dramatic late win over Fraserburgh.

• Nairn County hit four as Rothes self‑destruct.

• Turriff United keep flying under Greg Moir with another impressive away victory.

• Banks o’ Dee edge past Huntly, with Mark Gilmour scoring on his return.

On this week’s Highland League Weekly, the title race takes another twist after a crucial draw between Formartine United and Fraserburgh at North Lodge Park. Was it a better point for Formartine? Or two dropped for Fraserburgh?

We analyse the territorial dominance, defensive resilience, and the controversial late offside decision that could have changed everything. We also break down the championship permutations — who can realistically reach 77+ points? Is it now a genuine three-horse race between Brora Rangers, Formartine United and Brechin City?

And are Fraserburgh and Clachnacuddin running out of road? Elsewhere, Keith continue their impressive start to 2026 with a huge 2–1 win over Clachnacuddin. Jordan Cooper’s midfield runs and an outstanding volley from Ronan Craib sealed another big result — but what does it mean for Clach’s title hopes?
