Buckie Thistle and Wick Academy are impatient to let people see their new people and flair: It's their first game of the Football League - Highland League season.

These are hustling days for the team playing at home, as they had a match only four days ago in the League Cup. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at East Fife.
