glensmad Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I have never seen Glencairn lose away to Auchinleck Talbot, and I've no intention of starting now. [emoji16] (No disrespect intended to Blantyre Victoria.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThemightyHERTHA Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 That's the least inspiring last 16 draw I've ever saw in the scottish Cup, its simply not the same without most of the top East guns in it, the scottish Cup is now like a world Cup without lots of the top south American big hitters in it. Ps. I would say the same if beith were still in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defo missing they “top guns” haha Only one non Ayrshire team in Pollok have won the West super premier division and an East team have won the scottish Cup sooner than a central based team have won the super West premier division title, for me the scottish Cup is still poorer without the majority of the east top guns just like the super West premier division would be poorer without the top Central teams via Central and Ayrshire amalgamation. Both the East and Central teams haven't had a great deal of recent success in both aforementioned tournaments but I would still rather have them for the benefit of our top competitions.

Hillonearth Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Regardless of whether they've actually won the thing or not in recent years, the fact remains that this season we've lost - what was it, 25-30 clubs? - with perhaps a dozen of those capable of going deep into the competition every year. As a result this year it can't help being a diminished competition to some extent...looking at the last 16 draw, I reckon six of the quarter finalists are already nailed on - there are only really two ties that look capable of going either way, which I don't think I can remember at this late stage before...

jimbaxters Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I do agree that the last 16 is a shadow of what it has been in recent years, which undeniably is down to the East exodus. However, when you see the likely winners of the eight ties, the quarters will be a strong line up if it goes to form. Therefore, it will be business as usual, with Lochee probably representing the East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got a hard game at Kilsyth and on the astro i reckon this could be the shock of the round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
