Been posted on our thread that Cowden are away to Berwick, but there appears to be no details yet of the draw anywhere, top secret it seems.

LongTimeLurker Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Spartans may withdraw from the competition if they are champions and enter the playoffs, so could turn into a bye to the second round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good news in that we'd get through to the next round. Bad news in that we miss out on a home cup tie.

I don’t think they should be allowed to withdraw.As John says the BUs would miss out on a badly needed home gate.Surely Spartans should be able to field a team of some description . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to appreciate their position that they (or whoever it turns out to be) have to be focused on only the play off. As far as the gate goes, surely it will be split as it’s a cup tie, so maybe not a massive money spinner? And Spartans are not exactly renowned for a huge travelling support… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course no one to put the ball in the net on a regular basis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costa Crookies Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Funny season, we’ve won as many as we’ve lost, but it really doesn’t seem that way. Nobody in the team who gets me excited when he gets on the ball in or near the box. Just expect them to look for someone to pass to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John S Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 We are just ahead compared to last season (assuming my counting is OK). We are two places and eight points better off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-U-tiful United Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Also for Tranent, as well as us and Spartans at home have EK and Uni of Stirling away and CSS at home Uni of Stirling have Cally Braves, Rangers B, Hearts B and Gala as well as Tranent. could be a close finish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems hugely unfair on the away team who will have the expenses of a normal away match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
