  1. Edinburgh City 0-2 Cove. Initial plan for today was to head to Dunbar but weather put pay to that so instead ended up being lazy and just heading to Meadowbank to watch Edinburgh City v Cove. Game of two halves with Cove dominating the first half scoring a good goal then missing a number of other chances to add to their lead. City keeper made a couple of good saves as well. Second half was dominated by City but they just could not score and on one of their few attacks in the second half Cove did.

  2. Leith Ath 3-1 Blackburn United East of Scotland 1st Division. Friday night under the lights at Meadowbank. Bit of an ill tempered game that saw both teams reduced to 10 men. Leith’s keeper was first to be sent off for aiming a headbutt at Blackburn forward just before half time with score at 1-1. Blackburn were probably better team prior to the red card but once they went down to 10 Leith started to play some nice football and deserved to take the lead. With the tackles that were going in and the yellow cards being shown it was inevitable that another player would be sent off and Blackburn were eventually reduced to 10 just before full time.

    I actually don't think the Scottish Cup in its present format is fit for purpose 

    I would bring back the Qualifying Cups so the Non-League sides have something to aim for in the opening months of the season

    Also have Rangers and Celtic have byes to the last 16

     

    What do you think

  4. Spartans 1-2 Elgin SPFL League 2. With a combination of work then weather taking care of my original choices for today was left with this one as plan D today. First half was pretty uneventful with Spartans having more of the ball but creating very little. 2nd half both teams played with a bit more urgency and game was end to end. Elgins 1st was a lovely  strike. Their winner scored with almost the last kick of the ball probably gives them enough of a cushion over Clyde that they are probably safe from the play off.

  5. Bonnyrigg Rose 2-0 Elgin City. Comfortable win for Bonnyrigg with a goal in each half enough to see off an Elgin side who only really showed any attacking threat once they were 2-0 down. Every time I come to Bonnyrigg there always seems to be another ground improvement. Just a pity they can’t do anything about the slope on the pitch.

  6. Tranent 4-1 Broxburn Athletic South of Scotland Challenge Cup 3rd Round. 5th in the Lowland League against 1st in East of Scotland Premier so was expecting this to be a close game but Tranent controlled the game from start and probably could have won by more. Broxburn didn’t really offer any attacking threat until already 4-0 down.

  7. Leith Ath 5-0 Rosyth East of Scotland 1st division. Comfortable win for Leith which moves them further away from the relegation places although they have played a number of games more than the teams below them. First goal was best if the night with a great free kick from Leith number 30. About 100 in attendance.

  8. Don’t get the anger being directed at Gunn he is just some who has taken a (probably) well paid promotion to a job he is possibly not qualified for. Something most of us would do. I would think anger should be directed at the person who appointed Gunn as director of football.

    As some one said above one positive is we have kept hold of Miovski. Really thought he would have been away this window and very pleased to hold on to his goals until the summer.

    Watch redzone most weeks so don't really hear that much of the co-commentators, but Greg Olsen is miles better than Romo.

    I like Romo and usually find Olsen a bit irritating but he was okay last night.
