Blackie Gold Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 A couple of weeks to go before the first leg, are you pleased with the draw, who do you think will progress. The only thing that pleases me was the fact we didn't draw another Ayrshire side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they are a good team and have been since the money man started pumping it in! I would dare to say out of the 4 teams left they have the smallest support week on week. I appreciate that getting to semi’s etc will bring more support out however it is a surprise that a team that has had the success that they have had has not got a better support. my heart would like to see a Lochee v Largs final, my head says the opposite.

eamonn Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Think the semi finals should be a one off game on a senior grass park , A good friend off mine the Kat says a two legged tie gives the advantage to the bigger clubs and I agree ! good luck to the four teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreghorn Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 The SJFA has again misapplied it’s own rules in relation to the semi finals. The competition rules state that the team drawn out of the hat first shall have choice of venue for the first leg. However the SJFA considers that this means that the team first out are at home in the first leg. Most clubs would probably want to have the second leg at home and are therefore are being penalised by this wrong interpretation. If my team had suffered I would be protesting! Any thoughts particularly from Lochee fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was to do with crowds and having to pay senior grounds where as this way they kept the money in the junior game. I always felt they should have played it one game at a Junior ground. I always felt that hindered us the year we went out to glenafton we had just lost Danny Smith our manager to linlithgow. Won the first leg but lost the second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ex-german exile Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I like the two leg format, but would have no problem with a one off match, preferably under lights. Two legs benefit the better sides and reduce the chance of shocks, but again what's wrong with the better side winning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanner Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I really like the 2 leg set-up, although the first legs are often a bit pish as a spectacle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
