fifer67 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Listening to Stuart McLaren trying to justify Willie Robertson's stamp was actually quite amusing! I felt sorry for Robertson for his sending off in the league game but make no bones about it if he was caught on cctv in street doing that he would be up in court on Monday! Yes Page & Mercer were lucky to stay on the park but if you witnessed your pal being stamped on then you would ease in too! Ref said didn't give the pen & booked Austin for diving because no EF player appealed for it! Go figure! Still think we're favourites for the replay I wish I shared your confidence because both teams pretty well matched the only surprise today was how they both got 0 as they could still be playing the now without a goal.

WullieBroonIsGod Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Woeful display by both sides. Seems none of our forwards wanted to take a strike at goal first half. Least the brawl at the end was entertaining. A replay - yippee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneed hearn Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 A very poor match.It appears that managers have concluded that you can't win matches at this level by playing football on the deck.East Fife really should have won with the chances they had but the Stirling keeper looks the best I've seen this season.Stirling fans will know better than me if Robertson has talent,but he won!t have much oa career if he behaves as he did yesterday.He was a liability to his teammates.Tie is now 50/50.

Ray Vaughn Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Robertson accidentally hit the East Fife players head with the first contact but there is no doubt that he dug the studs into his chest for the second contact. I had a good view of the first contact and my view that it was accidental was formed before the second contact. I was shouting at him long before the inevitable red card was shown. I take it for such a sending off that the suspension starts immediately and not the next cup tie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m not sure given the fact it was a cup game and he may be just banned for at least 1 cup game depending on the referees report. Might be still available for the Shire game as it is in the League but could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Vaughn Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Violent conduct is always the next match regardless of tournament. Question is whether it is only one game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the case then both Comrie and Robertson will be unavailable for the Shire game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamA Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 He will have an automatic next game in any competition ban (next week) then whatever it is deemed fit cup games. Probably 2 games so he will miss the replay & Stirlings first SC game next season! See what I did there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draw for the 3rd Round is made on Monday I believe. Could be a nice draw for either team, hopefully the Albion get through the replay and get a home tie against beatable opposition, not a trip to some far flung part of the Highlands. .

Ray Vaughn Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Tenner to get in to the replay. Much more sensible pricing than Stirling's league price of £12 or East Fife's £13. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, also the fact that Champions League games are on that night makes sense to reduce the prices in the hope to entice people out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mon_The_Fife Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Even at that price, it's still not tempting enough to fly back from New Zealand. I am home for the next round though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewan_fife Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 There is a bus running to the Scottish cup game between east Fife and Stirling Albion on the 3rd of November, plenty of seats left on the bus, get in touch if interested.

rhliston Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Winners of this replay will have a home tie against Cumbernauld Colts from the Lowland League. Dare I say it whoever wins should be able to beat them and book a place in the 4th Round. If that is the case possibility of a decent pay day if drawn to a Top side.

This should get both teams excited for the match on tuesday, knowing that it's somewhat an easier tie the round after and then a possibility of a payday in the fourth round.
