welshbairn Posted August 19 Author Share Posted August 19 Fort William have pulled out of the competition ahead of their first round draw v Lossiemouth on Wednesday. Had already been moved to Lossiemouth as Claggan Park's floodlights ain't working 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Macleod Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Maybe worth a shout giving Diaba more game time he seemed shaky at times on Saturday. Looked like he needed more match fitness Playing Rebillas makes more sense then playing Mackinnon cause he'll obviously be sent back to Clach as soon as Newman is fit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Tarmo Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 MacKinnon is starting. I’m hoping the absence of Calum McLeod is that he’s starting against Kelty, although I’d be disappointed if this meant Strachan wasn’t starting that game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Macleod Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Oh well... Nairn just simply wanted it more & they obviously had way more experience in the team. You could just tell some of the players just didn't care most the bench was up the tunnel minutes before full time. The players that have actually been in n out of the 1st team certainly didn't impress tonight thought Calum Mackay was the best out of a bad bunch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted August 21 Author Share Posted August 21 (edited) The scores are mental this season, totally unpredictable especially at the lower end. Clach could have lost 8 goals in the first very windy 15 minutes to Strathspey, but then grind out a 3-2 win. Rothes recover from being 0-2 down to Nairn to beat them 2-3 on Friday, then get pummeled 8-0 by Forres tonight, who got pumped 0-3 by Rothes on the opening game of the season. Lossiemouth got a bye because Fort William failed to get enough players registered in time, and trialists are verboten in this competition.

Jimmy Shaker Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 I dunno what cup competitions allow trialists, but the NOS Cup hasn’t in all the time I’ve known it to exist. Whatever issues there are with Comet didn’t stop smaller clubs like Halkirk, Invergordon, and Nairn County from organising themselves in time. Rumour has it Fort’s manager living in Dunfermline had more to do with them withdrawing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Tarmo Posted Wednesday at 19:16 Share Posted Wednesday at 19:16 Quarters on right now, only goal appears to be Halkirk taking an early lead at Inverness Athletic (game is in Alness) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
