The former Alness United manager, who was only appointed assistant manager at Grantown last week, was offered the manager’s job after impressing over the past couple of weeks.

His first game in charge will be Saturday’s home match against Huntly and will continue liaising with Strathspey Thistle’s Head of Football Development, Brian Ritchie.

Strathspey Thistle released a statement which said: "Robert will now also be able to start preparing for next season and take in or release players as he sees fit, and have a basis of a squad ready for a good pre-season and, hopefully, a more successful Highland League campaign for the 23/24 season.

"Strathspey Thistle are delighted that Robert has accepted the role and look forward to a very positive working relationship for the future."
