Correct. Our Kingdom teams just don't crack it at this level.

Cupar show wee video highlights of their games on their Facebook page

Look at the video of the first goal. Keeper made a total hash of it. He was jumping against Boylan the smallest player in a Hertz jersey who actually turned his back because he misjudged the flight of the ball and it skelped the back of his heid. So did the goalie missjudge it and he missed everything. I actually think one major reason for the Doune capitulation in the second half was that every single one of their back 5 (including the goalie) was on a booking by the end and couldn't put in any tough tackling in the second half or they wid have seen red. The ref was actually one of the best I've seen in ammie fitba for a long time. Took nae nonsense from the players, dished out cards when deserved and didn't bottle any decisions- for both sides.

Very, very impressive work but - and I do understand 'weighting' etc - how can Cupar Hearts drop down after an absolutely incredible run of successive wins, including a Scottish Amateur Cup trophy, knocking the 2nd favourite out of the Fife Cup and still in the Scottish knocking out the strongest team in another league yesterday? Either your 'weighting' is wonky or you just don't give enough significance of an exceptional side skewing your analytical suppositions. BTW this isn't a dig but by all reasoned viewing Cupar are the best Amateur team in Scotland at the moment. Clearly I'm biased though
