Rangers v Cove Rangers

[G51]

Cove are selling virtual tickets for the game, which can be bought here: https://coverangersfc.com/nothing-without-fans/

A ticket enters you into a draw for a signed shirt from both teams, a four-ball round of golf at Castle Stuart, and hospitality for four at a Cove game next year.

Apparently 15% of the proceeds will go directly to NHS staff.

Great incentive for Cove tonight with a home tie against Celtic in the next round if they can get through.

If they do, it will be great for them to play against one of The Old Firm.

The lineup for The People’s Champions.

Did not expect to see Davis and Kamara play.

[bennett]

Stronger line up than I expected. 

 

 

 

 

Edit... too slow.

This’ll be only the second ever Cove game I’ve ever watched. Saw them in 2015 in Inverness against Clach. Think there’s still a couple of players from that game still playing for them.

Didn’t bother with our game against them in the LC last season.

Was just thinking about this myself. I must have seen Cove loads of times when they visited Harmsworth in the Highland League, but I can't really remember any memorable games against them.

Feel like I've seen hundreds of Academy 0-3 Devronvale matches though.

How many of the monopoly 5 are involved?

This must be the SPFLs 2 newest clubs, am I right?

What a bizarre career Fraser Fyvie has had. Next big thing when he broke through at Aberdeen, flopped in England, back up the road and starts the final in Hibs Scottish cup win in 2016, then three years later he’s playing part time with Cove Rangers. He’s 28 FFS

[TheScarf]

‘This is Cove’s biggest ever game.’

I think the 2nd leg of there play off with Berwick Rangers was a bigger game tbf. Not some 3rd round cup tie where they’re heavy favourites to be on the end of a hiding.

2 of 3 to be pedantic, Edinburgh City were promoted between Rangers' entry and Cove's promotion.

So you're saying he has a good cup record against Rangers...

[G51]

Wright looks like a player. If he had an extra half-yard of pace he'd have serious potential.

He’s a good quiz answer:
What Scottish player currently playing in Scottish football has won both the FA Cup and Scottish Cup.

Think injuries have fucked him. He had two pretty serious ligament injuries before he even went down south.

Kemar Roofe needs a visit to a Turkish clinic.  Horrific barnet.

The highlight of his career will surely be getting called "Fyvie Fraser" regularly by Csaba Laszlo

[G51]

Jermain Defoe is still an incredible finisher.

[bennett]

Defoe gets the breakthrough with a nice goal.
