HibeeJibee Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Just now, Sir Tarmo said: They might have won the Second Division by a whisker but they got promoted by a landslide and again had a +100 GD. They’re in the promotion spots again but my EOS knowledge isn’t enough to know if they’ll go up or where they’re eventually headed. Certainly seems like there’s a lot of established clubs in the Premier. Where is the money coming from? How far can they go? Among favourites to go up again albeit having dropped 5pts from 5 clearly having less easy time of it. Seems no reason why they can't establish themself in EOS Premier... winning promotion to LL and surviving perhaps taller order unless raise £ again (plus needs licensing)? Also won several cups: East of Scotland League Cup 2022-23 Alex Jack Cup 2023-24 (competition for clubs not playing in Scottish Cup) South, East & West of Scotland Cup-Winners' Shield 2023-24 (playoff between winners of equivalent cups - qualified them for Scottish Cup) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want more on the background behind the club the best place to ask is on the Bo'ness Utd thread in the Lowland League forum. It won't be impartial but it will be informed. All I can say is, having watched them a few times, they're not just a collection of players paid beyond their place in the pyramid, they're a really well coached team that plays as a unit and is good to watch. If the money keeps coming and they hold onto the management team I would expect to see them be competitive in the EoS Premier. But those are big ifs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Tout P'ti FC Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Creetown 1 Cumnock 3. The Wicker Men took the lead after 15 minutes and held onto it for an uncomfortably long time. Cumnock are world class at passing the ball side to side and popping 30 yard shots wildly out the park. Not so many good chances inside the box. Eventually a red card was shown for a wicked Wicker lunge, and Cumnock equalised shortly thereafter. Two more goals for Cumnock, and one further red card for Creetown, sees the three points going back to Cumnock. On this showing, I wouldn’t fancy Cumnock to progress much beyond the first round, but time will tell. There’s some good players in that team, they just don’t seem to have clicked yet, but that can be worked on. Good road trip this. Down via Moniaive and Wigtown, wee wander, light bit of book shopping, and a decent game of football in the sunshine. Could be worse. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Bra day for it in Dundee's Fife colonies . 3-1 North End probably sederbed more on the first half performance than the second. Not a brilliant game but a fun watch. Any ideas where I can get the rest of the scores? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeArab Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 Great result for Cupar Hearts. Buzzing for the lads. Great achievement getting an amateur side in the first round Scottish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 A few shockers in there. Vale of Leithen and Burntisland. Darvel maybe more of a surprise than a shock 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HibeeJibee Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 (edited) Genuinely thought Benburb-Vale of Leithen was possibly 3-0 misprinted... visitors play 2 tiers below, hadn't won a Scottish Cup tie in 12yrs, indeed scarcely won any games last 5yrs... incredible .

Marten Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Not the most amazing game for us yesterday, but job well done in going through and no more injuries (of which we have quite a few now). Hawick have improved compared to the last time I saw them, around 2 years ago. The Hawick I saw then could have suffered a double digit defeat. It was quite comfortable yesterday, but nowhere near that difference between the sides either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before yesterday Vale had kept 5 clean sheets in 6yrs; they'd won 2 cup ties in 6yrs (v Craigroyston + Livingston Utd). Just sensational. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
