Wick Academy have announced that Gary Manson has been appointed as the club’s new first team manager on a long-term deal.
Having been installed as interim co-manager alongside Stewart Ross in February, Manson now takes sole charge of the club ahead of the new season.
The SPFL has today announced the league set-up will remain in the current 12-10-10-10 format for next season after the 42 clubs showed “insufficient support” for reconstruction.
This means that teams in play-off positions, like Highland League champions Brora Rangers, will be denied the chance to move up the ladder and therefore remain in the Highland League for season 2020/21.
Huntly FC have confirmed that Martin Skinner has resigned from his post as First Team Manager.
A club spokesman stated "we would like to thank Martin for all his dedication and hard work since he took over the Manager’s role in August 2018."
Huntly Football Club have announced the appointment of Allan Hale as their new Manager.
Hale has recently been playing for Junior side Fraserburgh United, and has previously managed Maud and Huntly's local rivals Keith.
Scottish Highland Football League clubs met today to consider options during the current public health emergency.
The following decisions were made by the meeting:
• That the 2019-20 season be deemed to have concluded on the date that football activity in Scotland was suspended – Friday 13th March 2020
• That Brora Rangers FC be declared Breedon Highland League Champions for 2019-20
• That the latter stages of the Utilita Highland League Cup 2019-20 (semi-finals and final) be held over and played early in the 2020-21 season
• That there be no further matches in the Highland League Youth Development Initiative for the foreseeable future
