Correct.

Rather strange setup this season.

They've added an initial midweek reattempt, but if off again you get next Saturday.

19:30 ko? Players will get home about 2am!!!

Haddington the shock result for today?? I put £20 on the at 12s! I coach part of their youth section and previously played ( junior days ) all involved in getting them to where they are now have done a remarkable job... a very hardworking committee!

Reckon they'll have to leave ~1pm and return about ~3am (especially if extra-time/penalties).

Absolutely.

That’s insanity! Just let it go to the Saturday. Working a half shift and driving 5hrs to play a game 250 miles away..... I wouldn’t be keen!!

If the Saturday game is also called off and you're then playing a few days before the first round on Boxing Day.

Not an especially great day for the LL teams. Was watching both BSC and Berwick. Thought Dunipace looked the better side, but coughed up some silly goals. VoL getting pumped as well. Maybe it's not high on anyone's radar this year.

I refuse to think any LL club went out today thinking the Scottish Cup was not that important. Indeed this season - with tight finances and a shorter and comparatively easier run onto later stages - it is maybe more important for prizemoney and more attainable for glory than ever...

Berwick have been toiling: Upper Annandale in South Challenge Cup (at neutral venue) trailed 1-0 then came back to win 1-4 so similar look to it. Cumbernauld's narrow win was predictable and also Edinburgh Uni's loss (indeed 2-1 was decent). I expected CSS to win in normal time tbf.

Dalbeattie and Vale always tipped to go down, by a few in Vale's case.

BSCG losing to Haddington is the only big shock... also Stirling Uni, but Jeanfield are very strong (unbeaten in EOSL - currently 2nd).
