21st April 2003

John O'Groats 1 v 2 Thurso Acks

Thurso Acks got a last mintue goal against a battling John O'Groats side to take all three points. Manager Andy Webster was still without Mark Munro, currently on Holiday and also without left-back Ewan Mackay (injured) but welcomed back striker Shaun Hensdridge who partnered Derek Munro up front.

Acks took the lead after 34 mins, John O'Groats battled on through-out the match and actually played the better team and at least deserved the draw. Derek Munro scored a goal right on the 89th minute and it look like the team who previously beat Pentland Utd would have to settle for a draw. However Acks got straight back into the game and scored within the last minute to end up 2 - 1 winners.

John O'Groats FC: Henderson, Tait, Sinclair, M. Banks, J. Banks, MacAllan, Robertson, Ross, Muir, Henstridge, D. Munro

Subs: Rosie, Malcolm, Green

Scorers: D. Munro (89)
