After that it was neutral because neither side should have an advantage. The one I remember was Killie v Hearts in 1987. After the replay was drawn at Rugby Park either a coin was tossed or lots were drawn to decide the next venue, which was Kilmarnock once again. Hearts prevailed sadly The next time a replay was drawn at Rugby Park was versus Stranraer in 1989-90 and became the first ever Scottish Cup tie to go to penalties. Of course Killie's knack of ignominious Scottish Cup firsts ensured victory for Stranraer No photographic records can be found for either occasion unfortunately.

Mo Johnston scored the winner in about the 400th minute. Correct - I was at all 4 games and was facing the prospect of another 30 minutes extra tine when the wee sh!te scored in the last minute. None were at neutral venues. I also remember going to 3 Scottish cup ties against Clydebank round this time, with the 3rd game being at neutral Love Street, Paisley. We lost that tie as well.

Hampden > Lesser > Hampden Bowling Club > Cathkin > Shawfield > Velodrome > Left Cheek > Glasgow Green > Barrowlands > Oscar Marzaroli exhibition > City Centre > F&C Canal > Firhill > Kelvinbridge > Kelvingrove > SECC Tennent's Sixes > Waverley > Right Cheek > Bellahouston > Pollok Country Park > Pollok FC > Langside > Ruel St > Hampden. An utterly delightful walk, in glorious autumnal sunshine. Burst 50,000 steps, which took me almost nine hours, including a couple of pit stops. No doubt I've missed out some football heritage sites. For example, I could have easily detoured towards Park Gardens to pay my respects to Jim Farry, or it wouldn't have been much of a stretch to see Benburb FC. A perfectly good way to spend an otherwise idle day off. Would recommend! Highlight was undoubtedly Firhill which just looks magnificent when approached from canal, a route I've never taken before, affording a superb view into the stadium from the towpath. Good stuff. I'll try and get a map and work out an Edinburgh equivalent (Warning: might contain rugby but I hope not!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were not only the first team to lose a Scottish Cup tie on penalties, we were the first team to lose a Scottish Cup tie twice on penalties - can't remember off the top of my head who that was against - QotS?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulbrucerick Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) In a shameless attempt to shoehorn this picture in! First, yes and only i know, Ayrshire Scottish Cup winners to be knocked out the next year by relegation threatened, lower league, inferior opposition?

tamthebam Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Thistle got f*cking Morton in the next round as we tended to do back then and lost after a replay as usual. Incidentally in an early round in the 1991-1992 Scottish Cup was this score: Berwick Rangers 7 Ross County 4 Just shows you how fortunes can change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
