Manager Wayne Mackintosh has thanked Nairn County’s board for giving them the best chance to progress in the Scottish Cup. “The Scottish Cup is a one-off and I’m delighted the club is backing us in this way. Everyone wants to play at the best level possible and for Highland League players the Scottish Cup provides that opportunity. Striker Hunter arrived at Spain Park in the summer of 2024 from fellow Breedon Highland League side Huntly. Given his experience at Highland League level Hunter is likely to command plenty of interest.
