He won't play against his parent club.

Always think that is a daft rule. If a club loan him out then surely he should be able to play for the loan club and show his parent club they were wrong to send him out 🤷‍♂️

I don't think any club wants one of their own players playing against them. It's nothing new and I'm not even sure if it's a rule as such, it's normally part of a loan agreement.

K:
Easthouses Lily 0-4 Tynecastle

:
Bo'ness Athletic 1-2 Sauchie

Syngenta 1-1 Tranent



Sauchie weathers late Bo'ness Athletic rally to win their 2nd game in a tough pool.

Tranent fail to recapture their dominant form of Friday as Syngenta come from behind to claim 1pt. This pool remains very hard to call.

Linlithgow recover ground, though topping the pool is out of their hands as other sides can reach 10pts. Blackburn effectively eliminated.

Tynecastle land a strong start.

Armadale Thistle 1-1 Jeanfield Swifts
Thornton Hibs 2-4 Glenrothes


image.png.a3f4fbb775695a01470d0d15d66c5984.png

This pool remains competitive but with Jeanfield having home games v Thornton and Glenrothes left, they're favourite to progress. Armadale will want a heavy win v Tweedmouth on Saturday.


Lothian Thistle HV 1-0 Preston Athletic

Bathgate Thistle 1-0 Dunipace

  Dunipace        are eliminated


image.png.8c79e0473119da9f352532a046ce8ddc.png

Surprise loss at Bathgate ends Dunipace hopes. Victory at Stirling Uni EOS in midweek will effectively win section for LTHV albeit on paper other outcomes remain mathematically possible.


Newtongrange Star 1-5 Bo'ness Athletic
St Andrews United 3-0 Rosyth

  Newtongrange Star        are eliminated


image.png.901667aae4257f3729f924e44c2d6892.png

Having led early, a startling capitulation from Newtongrange sees them crash out. Sauchie know avoiding defeat to them Wednesday will be enough to top pool... whilst Bo'ness Athletic and St Andrews face a dramatic showdown on Saturday.


Burntisland Shipyard 1-0 Dundonald Bluebell
Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts 2-1 Newburgh


  Burntisland Shipyard        are eliminated
  Newburgh        are eliminated


image.png.46538aa5444e000ff109c4378d0d3d7e.png

Burntisland has proven an incredibly Jekyll-&-Hyde outfit of late. Dundonald v Edinburgh College on Wednesday will help fix who are in driving seat on Saturday then following Wednesday.


Broxburn Athletic (seven) 7-1 Fauldhouse United
Craigroyston 1-2 Coldstream


  Craigroyston        are eliminated
  Fauldhouse United        are eliminated


image.png.4650120461e37eba0cecd1052e073961.png

We've come a long way in 6yrs or so - from the days Broxburn and Fauldhouse were finishing near each other in the old juniors. Leith v Broxburn settles it on Saturday: hosts needing to win.


Arniston Rangers V-V Edinburgh South
Hill of Beath Hawthorn 2-0 Livingston United


  Livingston United        are eliminated


image.png.5d94dd34b533a54666f053ef3e28dc88.png

This group has been reduced to somewhat of a shambles by postponements and cancellations. Realistically any of the top 4 could yet make it out and hard to say who will even be favourites.


Heriot-Watt University 3-1 Lochgelly Albert
Musselburgh Athletic (eight) 8-1 Pumpherston


  Lochgelly Albert        are eliminated
  Pumpherston        are eliminated


image.png.81a28e02f108eec72679abb8933546a7.png

Heriot-Watt Uni can no longer top section. Musselburgh v Haddington now looks an outstanding spectacle next Saturday - draw would suit Burgh while it might leave Hi Hi biting their nails.


Ormiston 0-1 Stoneyburn
Whitehill Welfare 1-1 Kennoway Star Hearts


  Ormiston        are eliminated


image.png.03434c15347d2c07a9b77027238ccffc.png

Proving an interesting section - Whitehill know victory at Dunbar on Saturday will be enough, but Kennoway can put pressure on both with victory over Stoneyburn whose hopes are tenuous.


Camelon 3-5 Tranent
Syngenta (nine) 9-0 Hawick RAU


  Hawick RAU        are eliminated
  Lochore Welfare        are eliminated


image.png.a20a7c75814fc42674e0f6bdc0c10c47.png

Belters won a high scoring encounter at Mariners while the Dyes blew away the Albert. Camelon v Syngenta on Wednesday is key for both as Tranent will go for goals v Hawick on Saturday.


Dalkeith Thistle 3-2 West Calder United

image.png.fa0f5f3af2def2de2f8fa9adbd070c2f.png

Dalkeith have put up a great showing in this section, though it has now opened-up for Luncarty or Linlithgow to mount a charge for top spot and West Calder's only tie left is at Prestonfield.


Edinburgh United 1-5 Penicuik Athletic
Oakley United 1-2 Whitburn


image.png.c8ee1005bed4a8f8552ce448138f8c66.png

Penicuik trailed early but ultimately ran away with it at Paties Road whilst Whitburn ground out key win in Fife. Penicuik v Whitburn on Wednesday now represents the fulcrum of this pool.


Kinnoull (nine) 9-0 Easthouses Lily
Kirkcaldy & Dysart 3-1 Tynecastle


  Easthouses Lily        are eliminated


image.png.de7152f980a8596f96e688f1b20b0ebd.png

Kirkcaldy will progress provided they don't lose at struggling Lily on Saturday.

Jeanfield Swifts V-V Thornton Hibs


Stirling University EOS P-P Lothian Thistle HV



Sauchie 2-0 Newtongrange Star

  Sauchie        have qualified

Host are first to seal a place in knockout stage, with a firm victory over already-eliminated Nitten. This result means that realistically Bo'ness Athletic and St Andrews both need to win their encounter on Saturday to sustain hopes of a runners-up slot.

image.png.df225b9a95e8d72c3a35633215780512.png


Dundonald Bluebell 5-4 Edinburgh College

image.png.28fc30e42de0f5da9192e602771eef23.png

Incredible encounter in Cardenden where the pupils of Conference X almost taught their Premier Division masters a lesson. However their 3-4 lead did get overturned late on. They'll study the form to try and beat Newburgh on Saturday then hope likely decider Dundonald v Inverkeithing on Wednesday ends in stalemate.


Edinburgh South 1-2 Crossgates Primrose

Fresh from their Alex Jack Cup success on Sunday it was hard work for Crossgates but they ultimately came from behind to win. Primrose move to pole position in what remains a very open section.


image.png.a9d2f417dd2906ced1a0020021acb414.png


Camelon 3-4 Syngenta

  Camelon        are eliminated

Remarkable game in canal country with Conference X landing knockout blow upon Premier hosts. Tranent must try to beat Hawick by 7+ goals on Saturday to top group... frankly it's doable you'd have to say... but 10pts may see either through regardless.

image.png.9b0ee8e77960b9be0d0c8c3a7cdf4da5.png


Penicuik Athletic 1-3 Whitburn

  Edinburgh United        are eliminated

Result of the night goes to the Conference X men of West Lothian for an even more impressive victory at Premier leader Penicuik. This shock leaves Saturday a true 'battle royal' as with the apple-cart truly upset leaders Edinburgh Utd are actually eliminated while 2nd/3rd/4th could all win section.

Thankfully all this breathless excitement is enough for 1 night of League Cup group action... as it made for little movement in the runners-up rank:

Good game at Penicuik tonight, with Whitburn worthy of their win. Penicuik's late, disputed goal could prove crucial if group is decided on goal difference.

Penicuik came flying out the traps but the Whitburn defence stood firm and they went on to deservedly win at a wintry Penicuik Park.

I’m struggling to see how United can still top the group HJ?

Aye made a meal of that. You can't finish top, plus you seem to actually be eliminated as I don't see how fewer than 4 other groups can end-up without 2nd having at least 7pts and GD better than -2. Yer oot.
