    Saturday 23rd March 2024
    SFs:
    Broxburn Athletic 1-2 Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts
    Dunipace 1-4 Dunbar United


    Sunday 28th April 2024
    Final:
    Dunbar United v Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts



    Premier and First division leaders left chastened by their visitors.

    Both reach their first ever senior cup final... no East Lothian club has won this cup since Preston in 2004; no Fife since Cowdenbeath in 1903.

    Where will the final be played.

    (Wed) Luncarty 3-0 Kirkcaldy & Dysart

    Bo'ness Athletic 3-1 Heriot-Watt University
    Broxburn Athletic 4-1 Peebles Rovers
    Edinburgh Community 0-5 Musselburgh Athletic
    Fauldhouse United 6-0 Dalkeith Thistle
    Hawick Royal Albert 0-7 (seven) Bo'ness United
    Hill of Beath Hawthorn 1-2 Armadale Thistle
    Linlithgow Rose 6-3 Leith Athletic
    Oakley United 1-4 Hill of Beath Hawthorn
    Whitburn 4-6 Inverkeithing Hillfield Swifts



    Fauldhouse blew away Dalkeith and Armadale edged out Hill of Beath, plus there was a highscoring encounter at Whitburn.

    R1 & R2 being nearly complete most of the Last 32 are now known:

    Bo'ness Utd, Gala, Linlithgow, Tranent, Uni of Stirling
    Broxburn, Dundonald, Haddington, Hill of Beath, Inverkeithing, Jeanfield, Luncarty, Musselburgh, Penicuik, Sauchie
    Blackburn, Camelon, Dunipace, Lochore, Preston, Rosyth, St Andrews
    Armadale, Bo'ness Athletic
    Fauldhouse, Harthill, Pumpherston, West Calder

    + Bathgate/Livingston Utd, Coldstream/Linton Hotspur, Crossgates/Berwick, Stoneyburn/Kinnoull

    You got the Oakley result wrong. Dunbar beat them not HOB. Dunbar are in the last 32 not HOB.

    90 minutes to go - and it’s still not over yet!

    Expect the unexpected - that’s been a constant over the past six weeks. 

     

    Congratulations to Dunbar. Not a game for the faint hearted but we got there in the end. We missed two penalties but fully deserved after leading for most of the season. Big Dawson the hero with both so well done to him. Well done to the manager .Another great turnout.

    Seasons end is only 180 minutes away. 
    A tremendous ending by the top four teams has left everybody with all the ‘what/if’ scenarios. There’s just too many to be considered. 
    It can’t really be settled this weekend.
    I think it’s a case of doing your best. Let others be concerned about us. 
    Good luck guys,


     

    It could be settled this weekend if results go our way and we win but I doubt it will.

    . Good luck to Dunbar tomorrow.  Burntisland destroyed Kirkcaldy on Wednesday,a team who did similar to us. This will be a very difficult game on a difficult pitch. Good luck again.

    We didn't take full advantage of the Glens defeat on Tuesday but a point takes us seven clear and it still remains in our hands,but we can't afford to drop more points if we want the title. Back in Fife next Saturday for our 5th away game on the trot, not easy for any team.

    I stand corrected,,,very true. Kirkcaldy - the team that very few people seem to rate went top of the league  on the 5/11 by one point although played two more games. However the next match day seen DU go clear by two points. 
     

    I love your innate attention to detail.

    I think it’s worth pointing out to anyone who may be interested that it’s now over 35weeks since DU moved to the top of the Division.

    Not bad at all,,,  a great achievement.👍⚽👍⚽

    Kirkcaldy were top of the league on Nov 7,we were in 3rd,we went top on Nov12th. ????

    Tomorrow it’s yet another trip to the nice City of Perth in the quest for league points. The earlier meeting in the season at NCP resulted in a convincing 5:0 victory. 
    By all accounts last Saturday in the same neck of the woods seemed to be a thoroughly convincing performance - very well done to all!!
    Hopefully the sequence continues. 

    Senior team aside,why are the under 20s not playing on our grass pitch. We haven't been at home recently  yet they use the 3g, why.

    Still a very long way to go yet. A lot of football to be played, points to be won and lost.

    But, Luncarty have put a spanner in the works. Fully expect some more over the next couple of weeks.

     Obviously it was the result that most Dunbar supporters wanted. 
    As said earlier - the prospect of another East Lothian team in the premier is getting closer.

    I see our next opponents,Burntisland gubbed Kirkcaldy 4-0 tonite. A massive test for us in Fife on Saturday.

     “Hardly a great night for us” - your response to my post. 
     

    And - are you saying that posters should only comment on the team they support? Time to grow up imho! 
     

    Not at all , post wherever you like  but how is it a great night for us. It was a result in our favour but only that. It means nothing if we don't take advantage.  Did you expect Dunbar fans to be having a street party or what.

    Your nearest rivals get beat, strengthening Dunbar’s chances of winning the league and/or finishing in the top 3 and you don’t think it was good for your team😳

    Stew in your own misery👍

    Where does it say I don't think it's a good result for us. I will repeat for you,,its now in our hands and we need to take advantage. Its a great result for Luncarty ,Glens still  have 2 games in hand with a better GD. Yer a pest,just focus on your other teams as Rubik says.

    Bit of cat and mouse going on today with 7 changes to both sides from when the sides met exactly 6 months ago.

    All to play for in the League next week. Sean Stewart unlucky to be sent off for a second yellow after being tackled from behind by Lewis Mackie who clearly influenced the referee with his antics.

     

    Great result for Dunbar yesterday. Hopefully after some poor results we are back to winning ways. Still very much the team to catch.. Well done to all at the club

    Big game on Saturday. The team will be hoping to avenge the battering over in Fife, from a few weeks back. 

    Make no mistake, they will need to be on top of their game to get anything. The wheels are wavering a bit, lets get back on track before it is out of our hands.

    A chance for the players and staff to show the team we are and put a marker down for the remainder of the season.

    I agree we need to play a lot better than recently to take something from this game.  This is a must not lose game and with selection problems,this is going to be tough,but let's get back to winning ways.

    Na Glenrothes are better than Kirkcaldy. I've seen Kirkcaldy 3 times this season where it couldn't have been 3 off days.

    Only saw Glenrothes once but was impressed.

    Luncarty hammered us 1st game but a lot of water has passed under the Rosewell bridge since then.

    Kinnoull stitched me up a few weeks back so can't comment on them lol.

    Nitten by the sounds of things have budgeted to get back up and look in turmoil at minute which leaves Dunbar who have the points in the bag to see them comfortably promoted though are making things difficult for themselves if they want to win the division outright. 

    Midweek trips to/from Perthshire and Fife to/from the Lothians could take its toll on player availability so definately better having the points on board. 

     

     

    Agreed
