HibeeJibee Posted June 9, 2018 Author Share Posted June 9, 2018 All the cups are single-legged without replays, with the obvious exception of the Scottish Cup which has replays (except for SFs & Final). Replays in EOS League Cup were abolished about 1996; in EOSFA cups in 2002; there were replays in the old South Qualifying Cup, but not the South Challenge Cup that succeeded in 2007. When it comes to extra-time there is a singe exception in that East of Scotland Cup ties go straight to penalties. (It's contested by Berwick, Edinburgh City and the 2 "Football Nation" EOSQC finalists). This is apparently since it's often held-over to the following season and has sometimes been played as a pre-season mini-tournament on Saturday & Sunday.

HibeeJibee Posted June 11, 2018 Author Share Posted June 11, 2018 Play one half of ET then take penalties in the half-gloom, isn't it ? Btw must be said that there was an exceedingly odd episode (in this very cup as it happens) back in 2013-14... when an adamant ref took a Gretna v Stirling Uni tie in an early round straight to penalties. Gretna won, but the tie had to be played again of course, and Stirling Uni won the restaged match, amidst a simultaneously bitter and intriguing suspension eligibility dispute. Never heard what became of original "rogue" ref. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy Jack was apparently the long-standing EOS secretary a few decades ago - his sons still present the trophy at every final. I think the League Cup trophy is also a memorial cup, presented by Civil Service Strollers, it's the same as their new ground name (either Christie/Gillies). There was a Tom Dodds Cup named after an earlier EOS secretary contested as a League Cup briefly in the 1960s then as a 6-aside tournie and finally a fair play trophy. Of course the King Cup is not a 'leader among cups' but was presented in Victorian times by Percival King sports outfitters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HibeeJibee Posted August 9, 2018 Author Share Posted August 9, 2018 Bump. Underway this weekend as clubs eye a place in next season's Scottish Cup plus silverware. Edinburgh Utd v Inverkeithing is at Leith (i.e. Peffermill) as overrunning works at Paties Road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patriot1 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 So just to confirm is it 30 minutes of extra time then penalties in the result of a draw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted August 9, 2018 Author Share Posted August 9, 2018 Correct. Only the Scottish Cup goes to replays. Pretty sure I saw/heard that 4th subs are allowed in extra-time in the cups this season after being tested higher up, but don't quote me on that!
