    No blame on the player or the ref at all, but when the seriousness of the injury becomes apparent, for me the Dunbar bench should have stepped in.

    There’s no way the Dunbar player scores without the injury to Kane.

    in fairness the Dunbar captain and a few of their players wanted to let Pace score, their manager over ruled them, or at least that’s what it looked like from what I could hear and see.

    I wouldn’t have wanted my team to win a cup tie like that, also in my original post I think Dunbar would have probably won anyway the way the game was going.

    Just leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

    Presumably then, you weren't one of the Dunipace supporters claiming for Dunipace to be awarded the points against Whitburn when that game was abandoned due to a serious injury to the Whitburn keeper?

    I hope both keepers make a full and speedy recovery.

    Are Athletic about to be the second SFA Licence club in Bo'ness? The club website shows various club policies needed for a licence so wondered if this will happen this time around so Athletic can play in the Scottish Cup from now on.

    Can they get a licence if they don't have their own ground? Surely not. It doesn't seem right.

    True, I did see that they were supposed to remain with the club until the end of the season but obviously must’ve been a further fall out that sped up the move. 

    Weird one.

    Surely the players are contracted to Syngenta, irrespective of who is paying their wages, and can't just go and play for Camelon without a transfer that is sanctioned by Syngenta?

    Been an excellent pre season for Rangers B. Maybe the Lowland League title won't be so far off as some think. 

    That would show the progress Rangers as a club are making.

     

    Colts and the First team both clinching their first title wins.

    You know that you will watch it out of morbid curiosity secretly admiring the might of the Queens chosen few, and the Popes Eleven.

    I know I'm late to the party, but it didn't take long for the Old Firm bigotry to appear in the Lowland League. The season's not even started yet.

    Problems will arise with the junior Cup, a can see it being played mostly midweek, as fixtures start to backlog with weather,as wosfl have already stated that league games take priority, imagine Cumnock away to Dyce, stoneyburn down to kello, on a weds night, your going to have wosfl, ejfa, Northern leagues all trying to align fixtures, it could become a shambles, then will the prize money be the same, sjfa won't have the same resources or pull with sponsorship for this tournament, I can see a large entry this season but it falling away quickly season after season as teams realise its losing its appeal

    Can anyone explain to me why the former West Region Junior clubs will be able to play in the Scottish Junior Cup next season when they will no longer be junior? Apologies, but I don't fancy having to read several thousand posts to find the answer.

    Scott Robertson has announced he is standing down from his position as of immediate effect. 

    Fat, far too late. This gesture means nothing for me now. He is gone because he has been told to go for the good of the region and sjfa. They should have punted him first thing yesterday morning, at least then I would have said fair play to the sjfa for acting swiftly and decisively.

    Just no pleasing some people.

    The SFA Laws of the Game handbook gives all pitch dimensions in metres and also in yards in (--). Admittedly an old copy 2007 but no reason why it would have changed since everyone always refers to eighteen yard box, etc. Interestingly no limits + or - put on thr figure which is usual on any drawing specifying a dimension. Never seen a ref checking any of them although I have seen goals, corner flags and even penalty boxes which clearly did not meet the specified sizes.

    Some of these rule changes are just going to have uninformed fans shouting abuse at refs, some still don't understand the ofside rule changes which came in many tears ago.

    It's not worth crying over.
