pete 2,499 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Coverage: Watch on BBC One Scotland & iPlayer; listen on BBC Radio Scotland 810MW/DAB/online; live text commentary on the BBC Sport website & app Auchinleck Talbot are looking to create history on Saturday in the Scottish Cup against Ayr United. On the three previous occasions the Ayrshire junior side have met senior opposition in the competition they lost, but now they hope to claim their first major scalp when their county cousins visit Beechwood Park in the fourth round. This is the seventh season the Talbot have competed in the Scottish Cup since it was revamped to include Scottish Junior Cup winners and the junior league champions. Their most notable appearance was in January 2012 when they lost to Hearts at Tynecastle by a solitary goal. It ended controversially when a last-minute goal by Gordon Pope was incorrectly ruled out for offside, therefore denying Talbot a replay. Not Rangers news but I know there is a few Talbot fans on here so will move it to general football tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,155 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I’d like to have a dog in that fight. Nothing against Ayr but I’ll go with Talbot. ”Play up, you Auchinleck fellows.” That’s what you sophisticated southerners shout at the game, isn’t it? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,761 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Beechwood Park is a bit different now to what I remember when playing there in the QF of the Scottish Junior Cup. The new stand wasn't there and I'm sure the dugouts were there at that side. Got robbed that day, denied a stone wall penalty, got beat 2-1. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexscottislegend 2,375 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Love the romance of the cup. Talbot thoroughly deserved their win. 1 hour ago, Scott7 said: I’d like to have a dog in that fight.

26th of foot 6,114 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 I suspect all the Scottish Cup shocks will be rattled off, in an attempt to find some perspective? Berwick Rangers against Rangers, Stenny versus Aberdeen, Clyde knocking out ra Sellik, ................. etc. I wonder if Arthulie's 4-2 victory over ra Sellik in the first round of the Scottish Cup in 1897 will receive a mention? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
