According to EOSL fixture-list - see p2 here...

http://www.eosfl.com/downloads/eosfl/The-East-of-Scotland-Football-League-Season-2017-18-Fixture-List.pdf

... the Coldstream v Tweedmouth tie now goes ahead a week later than previously indicated, on Saturday 19th August - and according to a list of "Contingencies for cup-ties involving clubs which groundshare" on p11, the same will apply to Heriot-Watt University v Tynecastle, again going ahead a week later on Saturday 19th August.


Burntisland Shipyard v Selkirk will be cancelled as Burntisland were drawn to play in Scottish Cup R1 which is also August 12th.

Going by interview I think he agreed :)

The very young age of the team.

Well done to the 17 year old keeper for saving 2 pens and young lads for having the bottle to steady themselves from a crazy last 10 minutes and see it through.

Civil Service Strollers 5-0 Edinburgh Uni and Vale of Leithen 3-0 Preston sends those teams into QFs.

Gretna 5-0 Ormiston sets up an away tie at Peebles in R2, while Whitehill will go on to host the winner of Spartans v Kelty.

Gala Fairydean Rovers 5-7 Lothian Thistle Hutchison Vale (aet)

HT - 1-3 ... (1-0, 1-1, 1-2, 1-3)
FT - 5-5 ... (1-4, 2-4, 2-5, 3-5, 4-5, 5-5)
HT in ET - 5-6
FT in ET - 5-7


Took in this game but it's all a bit of a blur. Suffice to say Gala were the better team for the first 30mins and last 30mins, which they played with 10 men, and astonishingly came back from 3 down twice. Conceded right on HT in ET and LTHV eased-it-out. Incredible game to witness, congratulations both (well - defences aside, maybe!).

In last 2 games at Netherdale I've seen 23 goals :lol:.

Was at the Gretna v Vale game last night. The Vale struggling in the first half but the better team for a good bit of the second half when Chris Anderson came on and played up front. However, Gretna well worthy of the victory, looking fit and playing some excellent football. 3-0 Gretna.
