Looking for Season 2015-16 Cup Results


Recommended Posts

The SoSL website used to have season archives, but it seems everything has now been obliterated with their modern website.

I was trying to put together the dates and results for the 2015-16 cup competitions, but am finding it almost impossible to get certain results.  Does anybody know where these are available?  Only 4 or 5 years ago, and already seems to have disappeared off the internet!

archive.org has the old website, but it seems like the dropdown to select previous seasons doesn't work, same goes for the fixtures/results page.  See what you can find from https://web.archive.org/web/sitemap/http://www.southofscotlandfootballleague.co.uk/

I looked at twitter and found some, e.g. https://twitter.com/search?q="tweedie cup" until%3A2016-07-01 since%3A2015-08-01&src=typed_query&f=live

Also saw the Scottish Football Fixtures website was tweeting back then, unfortunately the website doesn't list all the 15-16 archive results together but you can find individual pages via twitter or going previous/next: https://scottishfootballfixtures.wordpress.com/2015/12/02/saturday-december-12-senior/

Edit: also check the page tags https://scottishfootballfixtures.wordpress.com/tag/tweedie-cup/

Thanks!  That's a great help.  20 results to find - should be able to get a few there.

Lochar v. Stranraer was sometime after Feb 6th 2016 if it happened as it was further postponed.

I was about to post the very same thing. Scratching after two postponements and Stranraer not fielding a league side at the time makes sense so as not to hold up the competition.

Great.  Thanks for your help guys.

I've now got all the senior/junior results for 2015-16  bar a few cup competitions which I still have to type in - will add them to the rankings/database.  An extra year of data should give it a sturdier base.

Andy McGregor's books have every result by date from 13-14 to present for all Juniors / Senior comps.

Thanks - do you know where I can access this or does anyone else have it and can look up what I am missing?

I decided to go back to 2014-15 and am almost complete - missing just 12 scores:

JUNIOR
Tayside/North Inter-Regional Trophy (8 results missing - Rounds 1 and 2 of Tayside section)

YOUTH
Scottish FA Youth Cup (4 results missing)
31/08/14 Cove Rangers v Turriff United (Round 1)
03/10/14 Clyde v Dumbarton (Round 2)
05/10/14 Dundee United v Dundee (Round 2)
09/10/14 Hamilton Academical v Livingston (Round 2)
