mcruic Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) As there's no football at the moment, I thought it might be fun to simulate a Scottish Cup with all the senior and junior clubs of Scotland (278 clubs). Using Excel, and a wee program that calculates strength based on last season's final league tables and simulates matches with some random variables so there's the possibility of some shocks. I'll post results here as the rounds are played. Straight knockout. 1st Round: Entries: All Tier 6 and below. 202 clubs. 90 clubs bye to 2nd Round. 56 ties 2nd Round: Entries: 90 byes, 56 winners from 1st Round, 17 LL clubs, 17 HL clubs. 180 clubs 90 ties 3rd Round Entries: 90 winners from 2nd Round + 10 League 2 clubs. 100 clubs 50 ties 4th Round Entries: 50 winners from 3rd Round + 10 League 1 clubs. 60 clubs 30 ties 5th Round Entries: 30 winners from 4th Round + 10 Championship clubs. 40 clubs 20 ties 6th Round Entries: 20 winners from 5th Round + 12 Premiership clubs. 32 clubs 16 ties Then straight knockout to the final. 7th Round Quarter-Finals Semi-Finals Final Edited July 20, 2020 by mcruic Sums 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFW Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Methinks you're being really unkind to Bridge of Don Thistle getting gubbed 7-0 at home by Kilwinning. The same Bridge of Don side who beat Kilwinning 3-0 in the Junior Cup last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
