TheMessiah Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 They really need to do away with this pishy cup, when Cowden and East FIfe don't even care anymore, that's when you know, especially with the regionalisation (probably not even a word but f**k it) of the league cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowden Cowboy Posted May 10, 2016 Author Share Posted May 10, 2016 They really need to do away with this pishy cup, when Cowden and East FIfe don't even care anymore, that's when you know, especially with the regionalisation (probably not even a word but f**k it) of the league cup. Cowden and East Fife play their ties so how don't they care 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dysart Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Why not play the games on Saturdays during International weekends when no league football is scheduled, those fans who can't do without their weekly fix of football will still have something to watch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 (edited) In 2011-12 they played the ties on the midweeks before the autumn internationals and got all 4 played with an aggregate attendance of about 1,200. In subsequent seasons a number of the completed ties have been played on international and Scottish Cup dates. Problem is you don't know if the clubs will have exited the Challenge or Scottish cups.

roverthemoon Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 According to this: http://scottishleague.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=5002 * 2014-15 declared incomplete - Dunfermline v Raith final unplayed * 2015-16 awarded to East Fife - their 1-0 win v Cowdenbeath in Semi-Final = only tie played. Similar mechanism used in 2013-14 (Cowdenbeath 2-1 win v East Fife in Preliminary = only tie played). * 2016-17 - to be drawn, cup will continue These facts alone are enough to declare that no one cares anymore. Dunfermline v Raith left unplayed when they aren't even in the same league and it could generate some much needed income - not even the club's give two hoots obviously 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seen it listed at the bottom of the preview for the Pars under 20 cup game with Berwick tomorrow on their OS as their next game so I presume it will be both sides under 20 players. Both sides don't have under 20 league games this week so at least gets the Fife Cup game out of the way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfha Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Hopefully this season's cup will be played to a conclusion, but probably not by full senior XIs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
