- Former Montrose player Allan led the Maroons to the Millennium Championship in 1999-2000, giving Keith their sixth title success. Leading the goal charge was Derek Nicol with 24 goals. The Maroons suffered a nail biting time in their final match, as they lost 3-4 at home to Brora Rangers, and were kept on tenterhooks before they heard that Fraserburgh had failed to win their second last game. It truly was a hotline from Kynoch Park to Bellslea Park that day!
- A fourth Qualifying Cup Final in six years ended in disappointment in November 2000, when Cove Rangers defeated the Maroons 4-2 after extra time at Huntly.
