Bit disrespectfull to Newton Stewart and Golspie,  have Newton not just acquired their SFA  entry Club License award and recently added some new faces to their squad. Glenafton will have them watched and will not treat the Creesiders as a free pass .

A by numbers respectful response, but it would be a shock and something of an embarrassment if Glenafton don't see them off with plenty to spare.

Shocks can happen but short of getting Glasgow Uni there could've been no easier draw than home ties to Newton Stewart + Golspie (I suppose a possible exception of Burntisland). Maybe "the easiest path" would be more politic. In all of history NS have only won 1 Scottish Cup tie and Golspie 3 - and with the exception of Golspie beating Preston they were all v Fort William and Hawick in the days they used to get trounced most weeks.

Glenafton and Threave will be very happy with their draws, but of course they still have to prepare properly etc.

A bye for Glenafton. Complete waste of time these ties although it will mean they will fall behind in league games.

Girvan to comfortably win. May have been close if Girvan were still a district league side but now they are a top division side they should have far too much for St Cuthberts.

Threave must be worried having been drawn to play away against the Uni's 'brainy boys'  in PR2 !
