@Ginaro is correct - category 3 from Moray & Banff. Refs travelling long distances is actually really common for the Scottish Cup. On the 12th there were Edinburgh refs that were at the likes of Nairn, Banks o’Dee & Newton Stewart. I suppose it removes claims of a home bias.

The Borders has been confirmed as moving to Tier 1 on Friday. Finally some fans allowed back.

Might have been at 4 different occasions when only allowed 3

Live on the club Facebook by the looks of it. If you transfer a £5 donation to the club you get put into a draw to win £150. Certainly seems to be a good deal.

Easthouses v Hawick off as well

Bit of a misunderstanding by the looks of it. This was a tweet from the SERYFA this evening. https://mobile.twitter.com/SERegionYFA/status/1315698823595950085

Don't know about the WoS, however the EoS is this Monday, with the LL & SoS around the same time. (Can’t remember for definite with them though)

Some decent ties in there. The 4 semi-finalists from the 2019-20 competition all have a 1st round bye, so could the semi-finals be played on the 1st round date?

True. That’ll be why University of Stirling sometimes play on the Sunday as well.

It could be a Friday night as well as Dalkeith have floodlights

10th June? I hope not! Agree though - I hope common sense prevails and fans are allowed in.

Very encouraging

But Hull City are not banned. Surely they can find somewhere in the whole of England to train though? What’s the reason to train in Edinburgh?

I have to agree. I’m a ref and there’s been a similar message put on the referee extranet. I’ve not being asked to do any games yet, but if I’m asked to do a friendly on say September 19th, I don’t see what issue is - as long as the provisional dates aren’t pushed back.

It’s only youth football that’s got the go-ahead so far. There’s been a bit of confusion over it but amateur football, as well as EoS, LL etc, isn’t allowed to start on the 15th.
