Fraserburgh chairman Finlay Noble believes Brora have earned the right to compete for a place in the SPFL even if they have been crowned champions by the slimmest of margins. The Highland League management committee has taken the decision to call time on the season after just three league matches and declared Brora, the reigning champions, as title winners again. Noble believes it is fair Brora can now go on to face Lowland League champions Kelty Hearts in the play-off and says there is relief among the committee members at being able to make an easy decision in naming Brora as title winners. He said: “I know fans will question how you can have league champions after three matches. but the fact of the matter is we had an obligation to put a club forward for the play-offs and Brora are champions in name only.
