Pretty extensive list of results up to 56/7 season here http://scottish-football-historical-archive.co.nf/perthshire-cup.htm I’m I missing something glaringly obvious or (apart from Port-na-Craig) have Pitlochry never had a decent team? Has it always been like Aviemore where it looks like a descent sized village, but nobody ACTUALLY lives there? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humphrey Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 since 1975 the Perthshire cup has been run as an amateur competition under the auspices of the Perthshire afa. 2018/19 winners were breadalbane defeating dunkeld 2_0 in the final played at ba;llinluig. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can tell, to live in Pitlochry you have to be at least 70. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was me thinking they were from Blair Atholl... Hopefully we see a decent team coming from there soon, Breadalbane in the HL would be nice but they seem nowhere near that stage yet, or destine for the EoS setup 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the amateur teams from up that way are dreadful. Breadalbane, Vale of Atholl and Ballinluig are all very poor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am fully aware that they’re all “nowhere near that stage yet” and will likely never be. But while Fort William manage to enter a team in the HL every season when most of the best footballers in the area are playing shinty, never say never. Especially if there is eventually a league or 2 below the HL for them to at least be competitive in if they were to sweep up all the best players from the area...

invergowrie arab Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 The problem with Highland Perthshire, and IMO with Fort William, is that young people either leave- permanently or in the uni terms- or are employed in weekend economies based around tourism leaving little opportunity for a football team to properly establish itself 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great league setup down there, just not enough young lads able to commit their time to teams for a whole season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) Geographically off topic but I thought similar to this with the Stirlingshire Cup when the ex-juniors joined the senior ranks....ditch the nonsense of having Dumbarton in and retain Alloa, as Clacks is just a kid-on county anyway...would give you Stenhousemuir, Falkirk, Stirling, East Stirling, Alloa, Camelon, Bo’ness and Dunipace... a tidy little 8-team tournament with new local rivalry matches. Don’t see much appetite for these county cups anymore, especially with the current League Cup format but if they were to return they’d at least be freshened up with the new senior members.
