Full Results Against Huntly
Huntly F.C. was formed in 1928. They were unanimously accepted to the Highland League at the league’s AGM in June 1928. The club entered the league in season 1928/29 and the first game was against Inverness Thistle on Saturday 25 August 1928. In only its second league campaign, Huntly became only the third team outside Inverness to win the league, finishing two points ahead of closest rivals Elgin City and Inverness Thistle.
