Fort William vice chairman, David MacDonald, said: ‘It was a disappointing afternoon, most definitely not the result we were looking for.

Match day mascot was Ellie Pakeman. Next weekend Fort William will travel east to play Forres Mechanics. The next home game is on Saturday August 8 against Inverurie Locos.
