HoBNob Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Todd is a better prospect than McCann at present, McCann has a fantastic physique which helps him against under 20s he can bully some defenders but he needs a bit fine tuning, he makes good runs though. Was more impressive tonight than what Smith was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowden Cowboy Posted May 24, 2019 Author Share Posted May 24, 2019 Fife Football Association AGM Welcomes New Members The AGM of the Fife Football Association was held last night at New Central Park, Kelty. Office Bearers for season 2019/20 were confirmed as David Allan (Chairman), Stephen Mill (Vice-chairman) and Bob Mullen (Secretary/Treasurer). The 2018/19 Fife Cup final between Dunfermline Athletic and East Fife is now expected to be played at East End Park early next season. Kelty Hearts last year of course were the first new club to join the Fife Football Association in over 80 years. At last night’s meeting though the membership increased from six to eight clubs with the admission of both Hill of Beath Hawthorn and Dundonald Bluebell to the Fife FA. They have initially been awarded provisional membership pending formal confirmation that they have become SFA members – which is a prerequisite for admission to the Fife FA. Thus Hill of Beath Hawthorn become the second club from the village to have been a member of the Fife Football Association following in the footsteps of Hearts of Beath who last participated in 1912/13 and indeed won the Fife Cup in both 1901 and 1903. Dundonald Bluebell though are the very first club from the Bowhill area ever to have been members of the Fife Football Association. Both new members were unanimously elected by the existing member clubs and we warmly welcome them to the Fife Football Association. The draw for the 2019/20 Fife Cup competition was also made last night and it produced the following ties. Cowdenbeath v Kelty Hearts Burntisland Shipyard v Raith Rovers Dunfermline Athletic v Hill of Beath Hawthorn Dundonald Bluebell v East Fife 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Socks Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Was the first round draw done such that all ties are between one league team and one non-league, or was it an open draw as before and it's just coincidence that this is how it turned out? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsforlife Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Doesn't that clash with The Tunnock's Caramel Wafer Challenge Cup R2 for East Fife?Easy Fife vs stirling that night. Either east fife move the 1st team game to the Wednesday(don’t know east Fife’s preference for midweek home games but typically these fall on the home sides preference without unusual circumstances), could play this game on the alternative night providing east fife can cope(we have done reserve games and first team matches back to back pre-season, tho usually resulting in a very week reserve squad)Pars not involved in teacake cup until the next round. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 P.s firmly in the side of let it die, 1 completed tournament in over 15 years as far as I’m aware. Next seasons tournament might create some interest with 2 new clubs but in hesitant of that with kelty joining not adding anything. Nobody wants to watch this and clubs have enough development games to play youngsters in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well given last 2 tournaments were completed and the final for last season is expected to be played then your stats clearly aren't right. Why not keep one of Scottish football's oldest competitions going especially with new teams joining? Clubs are always arranging 'bounce matches' so ample opportunity to play these games. Seems that every Cup competition now is being written off - Challenge Cup is a diddy cup, League Cup is a pre-season warm up, down In England even the FA Cup has been devalued. The League is the be all and end all it seems. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Competition completed05-06 competition completed 04-05 competition completed So I’ve slightly overestimated how far back we have to go to find the competition being played in full on a regular basis. But 1 in 11 doesn’t exactly look good either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
