The future continues to look bleak for crisis club Gretna.  The Borderers will go out of business if no buyer can be found before the 17th May.  Adminstrator David Elliott claims there are 4 interested parties but says there are no guarantees.  40 Raydale Park staff members will be made redundant if the club folds.

Fraserburgh bring the curtain down on their Highland League season on Saturday.  Charlie Duncan's team travel to Wick, guaranteed to finish 5th regardless of the outcome.  New title holders Cove Rangers are desperate for more silverware and can make it a league and cup double with a Fosters Highland League Cup win over Inverurie Locos.  The teams meet at Huntly's Christie Park.
