The 20 year old, who has made 16 appearances for Dufftown this season, has joined the local amateur side who are believed to be keen on joining the Moray District Welfare Football Association in time for the new Welfare season to start.

Meanwhile Dufftown manager Paul Lamberton has released Andrew Ross, Kelvin Main and James Grant after the three players indicated that they no longer wished to play for the club.

Everyone at Dufftown Football Club would like to thank Blair, Andrew, Kelvin and James for their service to the club and wish them the best of luck in their future footballing careers.

Dufftown manager Paul Lamberton said:  'Blair has asked to leave the club which I am disappointed about.  I've always said though that I only want players at Dufftown who are committed to playing for the club so I've agreed to Blair's request by placing him on the transfer list.'

Interested parties are asked to formally contact either Paul Lamberton (07751 671804), Dufftown FC Secretary Euan McDonald (07885 493643) or by emailing the club at dufftownfc@hotmail.co.uk

Dufftown manager Paul Lamberton was understandably pleased to have tied up the future of so many players and said: 'I'm delighted that these players have agreed to extend their contracts.  I know that there was interest in several of them from other teams so it is pleasing that they share my belief that they would be best served remaining at Dufftown'

Meanwhile two players on the way out at Dufftown are strikers Ryan Dyer and Kris Geddes who have both been released from their contracts.  Paul Lamberton said: 'Both lads approached me and asked to be released from their contracts which I have agreed to do.  I would like to thank them both for their efforts at Dufftown during their time here and wish them the best of luck in the future.'
