Terrible Twins give Keith a high five Print
Keith's "Terrible Twins" of a few seasons ago, Jamie Lennox and Cammy Keith, put Fort William to the sword at Kynoch Park, with five goals between them.  The former notched his second hat-trick of recent weeks, and the latter notched a double.
 
Despite the nap hand however, in reality the Maroons should have ended up in double figures but a barrowload of chances were scorned, by the bold Cammy who ought to have netted a treble in the opening 11 minutes, Jamie who missed a header, and Wayne Mackay, Sean Keith and Ritchie Craig all bypassing opportunities.
 
Local lad Kevin Collins was handed his first start after six sub appearances since his move from Forres Mechanics earlier in the season, and put in a worthy ninety minutes.
 
Cammy Keith should have netted inside the opening 30 seconds, but hit the ball straight at the goalie, but twenty seconds later his partner Jamie Lennox made no mistake from 10 yards.  A couple of minutes later Cammy fired wide when he should have found the target, and he squandered again in the 11th minute when Lennox squared the ball right into his path, and from right on the goal-line he tamely tapped the ball into the goalie's arms.
 
Cammy Keith finally got on the scoresheet as the one way traffic continued, after 23 minutes Daniel Park laying the ball on a plate for him to slip home from 8 yards.
 
Lennox hit the bar with a header as the Maroons threatened to run riot five minutes later, then the Keith brothers combined in the 36th minute, Sean Keith whipping over a corner, and Cammy Keith rising to head home his 8th goal of the season.
 
Two minutes from the break the deadly Jamie Lennox swept the ball home from 10 yards to put his side well and truly in the driving seat, there was no way back for the Fort.
 
The Keith fans sat back and waited for the goal avalanche after the break, but it never came.  Cammy Keith was denied his treble in the 61st minute when he raced clear only to see his parting shot rattle back off the post, and he skied the rebound wildly over the bar.
 
Jamie Lennox wound up the scoring in the 64th minute, Fort failing to clear a free kick and the deadly Lennox reacted to easily rifle home his hat-trick, his 10th goal of the season.
 
Chances abounded after that but wild shooting from Sean Keith and Ritchie Craig as well as Wayne Mackay, all firing over the bar, meant that the home fans had to be content with the 5-0.
 
A depleted Fort side were reduced to ten men with seven minutes remaining, Andrew Martin receiving a second yellow card to consign him to an early bath.  The Claggan Parkers looked a little rusty after their enforced lay off.
