TFW Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Should be an interesting tie, two unbeaten teams both doing very well by the look of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Definetely, very interesting. Edinburgh City a surprise early leader, but free-scoring. Talbot the long-standing quality outfit in all the Juniors. Talbot likely to be considered favourites - as they would be against almost anyone - but so were Shotts, the Junior Cup holders, who City beat in 2012.

surely not! Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 This ones gonna open up the 'which grade is better' debate for a few weeks. Likely due to the fact that the game is soon that city will still top the LL by the time it comes around and as HJ says, talbot are the standard by which the junior game is judged. However, the mark of a leagues strength isn't necessarily it's top sides, it's the middle to lower end sides. Bo'ness dispatching selkirk easily enough is a good starting point for most arguments.

Dipple burn Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 It's all on the day. An early red card or a dodgy penalty could have a big bearing on any game. Talbot and its support will give City the greatest respect like they do with any other side. City are league leaders so they must be a decent outfit.

TFW Posted September 16, 2014 Author Share Posted September 16, 2014 What's parking like in and around the ground. Had palpitations when forced to pay over £16 for 6 hours parking on a Sunday night in Embra this last weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grim O'Grady Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 You'll have to get a taxi if you park at the Castle Terrace to Meadowbank. There's people's houses round the back of the stadium you can annoy & park in front of. There's limited free parking at the ground but you'll be lucky to get in there. You could always park out of town & get a bus to the ground £3.50 Lothian bus day ticket. Do a bit of sightseeing it's a gorgeous City., Grimbo tourist information.

Voice of (t)reason Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Hey Grimbo - you forgot to mention the trams. They don't go near Meadowbank, but they are handy for the City club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim O'Grady Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Hey Grimbo - you forgot to mention the trams. They don't go near Meadowbank, but they are handy for the City club. Good point Voice, yes he or she (no room for complacency) could park the motor at Morrisons (the gyle, other supermarkets are available but not as close to the tram stop). The day saver is usable on the tram to, so get the tram to town, end of the line, jog across the road diagonally towards the playhouse then down to the City club. It's easy to pass but if you get to the Italian on the curve you've just passed the City Club. They will be able to tell you how to get to the ground from there. Mention my name at the bar to get 15%. Grimbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
