Season 2011-12
The club entered the Challenge Cup for the first time, and were drawn away to Forfar Athletic F.C. in the first round. They lost 5-4 on penalties following a very creditable 1-1 draw. The season ended on a high note when the club won the Highland League Cup, beating Cove Rangers 2-0 at Banff.
However, they couldn't make it three Highland League titles in a row, as they finished 5th. The title was won by Forres Mechanics.
It was officially announced on 4 June 2012 that Gregg Carroll had resigned his post as Buckie Thistle manager and retired from football. He has been replaced by his former assistant Gary Hake.

Famous quotes containing the word season:
“Utterly frozen is this youthful lady,
Even as the snow that lies within the shade;
For she is no more moved than is the stone
By the sweet season which makes warm the hills”
—Dante Alighieri (1265–1321)
