*if Arniston qualify for knockouts as winner of Group F
^if Arniston qualify for knockouts among Best Runners-up



Some absolutely cracking ties in prospect here. Highlights among Last 16 include Premier leaders Penicuik v Conference A joint leaders Haddington, a potential Fife derby at Glenrothes, an intriguing clash between Syngenta and Sauchie, and form collide teams in Tranent v Whitburn.

QFs could deliver Linlithgow v Bo'ness Athletic derby, and a rematch of Syngenta v Tranent.

As for SFs obviously numerous possibilities there.

Are the teams drawn out in alphabetical order? Whitburn away every time. Delighted to be in it though.

Jeanfield Swifts 1-4 Glenrothes

  Glenrothes                    have qualified
  Armadale Thistle       are eliminated
  Jeanfield Swifts          are eliminated


Glenrothes delivered a terrific victory (by a frankly startling margin) over a Jeanfield side which over recent weeks has thumped the likes of Penicuik and Civil Service, beaten Darvel and taken Spartans to extra-time. In doing so they top the group and progress to the knockouts.

Arniston Rangers 3-1 Edinburgh South

  Hill of Beath Hawthorn       are eliminated

Arniston achieved step #2 of their tall order and have successfully banked 2 wins over the lower-ranked sides in the pool. Their next target is a result at Crossgates next week.

There dosnt seem to be any league games on that day ?

All except Syngenta v Sauchie should be played on the 30th, the fixtures PDF has the League Cup listed for that date.

Notice some on social media - including Glenrothes themself - thinking they could face Hill of Beath.

They can't. Haws are toast.

Hill of Beath could still reach 7pts by beating Arniston; but for that to be enough to catch Crossgates who already have 7pts, then Primrose would have to lose their remaining game against Arniston: who would in consequence have 9pts. Similarly if Crossgates don't lose to Arniston, that means they either draw (8pts) or win (10pts), either of which means Hill of Beath can't catch them.

It's a bit like Dalkeith - currently sitting pretty 1pt clear atop their pool on 7pts / 0 but hopes are already gone. Luncarty v Linlithgow must end in a home win (Luncarty = 8pts), or an away win (Linlithgow = 9pts), or a draw (Linlithgow = 7pts / +4).

Edinburgh College are in a different boat entirely because as well as having 7pts their GD of +6 is better than Dundonald's. So in the deciding Dundonald v Inverkeithing tie on Wednesday a home win would be fatal (Dundonald = 9pts)... as would an away win (Inverkeithing = 8pts)... but a draw would see both Premier outfits eliminated, as Bluebell would reach 7pts, but carrying a worse GD of +4.

Arithmetic class dismissed.

Bo'ness Athletic will qualify as a best runner-up... unless Arniston can beat Hill of Beath by 8+ goals.

Is the EOS qualifying cup final not on the 1/5? Or has it being moved? Which if Linlithgow managed to get through to would mean the league cup game would be moved?

The Qualifying Cup seems to be scheduled for 1st May but that would require the Kinnoull v GFR game to be played first - that either needs to next midweek or other games need to be moved.
