  1. Took in this game today it was played on a park that was unplayable, Darvel were fortunate to go in 2 up at halftime then never came out for the second half Broughty deserved the draw at the very least
    Fair appraisal. Darvel keeper had two sensational saves first half; and Broughty keeper IMHO should have kept out the Darvel 2nd direct from a wind assisted corner. Difficult pitch to play football on, however in fairness, both teams tried. Should be an interesting replay on the plastic next Saturday.
  2. Not too sure ad say mibbie 600-700 
     
    Sounds about right. Absolutely foul weather, but thought the players did well. Felt Neilston had to score first and were maybe a bit shot shy with the wind in the first half.
  3. Are these dates confirmed? Can't see them on website.
    The dates on the website from the start of the season which were, if my memory serves me correctly, Mar 28 & Apr 4, have been replaced by TO BE CONFRMED.

    I believe that the dates I posted above were the mostly recently agreed dates. I don't know if that means that they are confirmed, but given the dates for the Semi-Finals announced in September on the website have been changed, I suspect these dates could change too.

    Feel sorry for Kennie. Midweek games usually start mid-April, BUT these new dates mean that any teams that reach the semis won't be able to be allocated midweek games without lights until we are almost into May. Can imagine that will cause a bit of chaos, especially if Talbot are one of those teams.

  4. Stupid post considering we have two clubs in latter stages of Europe and look like we'll be back to 2 Champions League places next season. Scotland's history/geography/fanatsism about football mean that this system works. It's not perfect but it certainly works.
    Aye, the system works. Folk reaching 21st birthday that weren't born the national team qualified for a major final. The system works though [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]


    It should be regionalised from Tier 3 down, but that's another argument.
  5. Just seen the tweet confirming the semi finals as being on 18th and 25th April. Potentially an 8 week gap between round 5 and the first leg of the semis, that's absurd imo. It also means the final will almost certainly be scheduled for after most senior grounds have been shut down for the summer.
     
     
     
     
    Heard a rumour to this effect. Have you got a link to the tweet?
  6. Top manager. Did a great job, and of course, will always be celebrated as the first Beith manager to win the Scottish Junior Cup. That record will always be his.

     

    I think his decision needs to be respected, IMO he has more than earned the right to step down when he chooses, but they will be big shoes to fill.
