Kennie Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 The date and venue for the Sectional League Cup Final will be discussed at the WRSJFA Management meeting on Tuesday 11th September. Traditionally, the Ayrshire final was on or around the first Sunday in October with the Central final a fortnight later. I had it down for Sunday 7th October in my original fixture proposal for the AGM, but certain factors have come about that might make that date unsuitable. 1) - The new dates of rounds 1 and 2 in the Macron Scottish Junior Cup. Saturday 6th October would be the date of any replays in Round 2. 2) - Talbot's involvement with the William Hill Scottish Cup will need to come into the consideration.

Blackie Gold Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Trying not to be uppitty but lets hope we get a decent venue for the final because I feel this is a great achievement for Lesmahagow and they deserve a day to remember. No plastic carpets , Newlandsfield or West Management back handers. A good old Junior ground with the crowd breathing down the players necks. Definately not a Blazerfest.

Duraglit shareholder Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Toss a coin for either teams park,that would ensure the largest attendance possible,or Meadow Park seems fair for both teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd question sending a pollok v Lesmahagow final to Auchinleck on the same basis I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glensmad Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Darvel would seem a fairly good suggestion for the venue, ground would be big enough to host the crowd and it's geographically in between the two towns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes-but not many junior grounds offer that.Thought Newlandsfield would be equidistant and easy to get to as motorway both ways.And it’s a great atmosphere for any big game or final.

Since it dosn't involve my club I won't make a suggestion. But without denying the suitability of Newlansfield as a venue the finals really ought to be shared around a bit more. Some oif the others already suggested would be perfectly suitable bearing in mind it is unlikely to attract a crowd in the thousands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duraglit shareholder Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Will their be a brand new trophy for the winner or will they recieve existing silverware from each respective areas,ie. present Ardagh for Talbot or Central league cup for Lesmahagow.
