Hamilton are at home to Kelty so might not be the Saturday. Think similar happened last season and Clyde were a 5.30 kick off - might be wrong on that though, can’t actually find anything about it. Edit - aye Third Round last year, Hamilton and Clyde both drawn at home. Both played on the Saturday -Hamilton 2.30 kick off, Clyde 7.45 kick off.

Cardle is Magic Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Shocked to my core they haven’t picked Dunbar vs Alloa or Tranent vs Forfar, especially since I was assured one of those game would be chosen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selfishly I’m hoping it’s moved to the Friday. A night out in Edinburgh is on the cards after Tynecastle. Saturday evening is probably ideal for the vast majority though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accies have spoken about wanting more Friday night games so there's a chance we could use this opportunity to move ours to the Friday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Picking all-league games for live television when there are loads of non-league teams left is boring as f**k. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 I'm highly unlikely to attend a Fife Derby at any point this season so the fact its an intra legue game is irrelevant to me. Seeing one on TV in the big cup on a Friday night seems like a right good laugh. Better than that muck served up on Monday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor7 Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 As much as I look forward to watching the fife derby on tv, I would have preferred a non league v senior team. Always the next round 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fixture that's clearly a run of the mill one which is has been played about 400 times in the last decade and one which no one outside the supporters of the 2 clubs care about. A lazy, weird pick from the BBC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lazy, weird pick from the BBC. Oh yes, because so many people would care about seeing Dunbar vs Alloa or Tranent vs Forfar right enough. It was very obvious which game would be chosen for TV when the draw was made. If you don’t like the pick then I suppose you can just not watch it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much rather watch those two fixtures, featuring clubs I've never seen play before, over some boring, run of the mill, played 400 times a decade game between two jobber clubs most Scottish football fans are completely nonplussed about. It's a lazy as fuck choice from the BBC. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Before BARB changed what was available publicly. It was fairly easy to compare the early rounds of the Scottish, Challenge Cup, and Championship games on BBC Scotland. There wasn’t a significant difference in viewers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranaldo Bairn Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I would genuinely tune in deliberately to see one or two teams I'd never seen before on the telly. Fife derby? Hmm, if it comes on while I'm sitting there I'll watch for a bit. Otherwise, who cares really. 1 hour ago, Spikethedee said: Did I miss the announcement about Scottish Gas sponsoring the Cup???
