August 8, 201312 yr comment_152078 Fucking hell, do they deliberately pick out the most distant team for Wick every year? They must hate the Scottish Cup and the losses they make on it. Few Highland v Lowland ties which should be interesting but I'll go for Rose v Nairn as tie of the round. Report

Few Highland v Lowland ties which should be interesting but I'll go for Rose v Nairn as tie of the round. Agree that Linlithgow v Nairn is probably the tie of the round. Some horrible journeys in there as well. Turriff having to go to Selkirk, Edinburgh City travelling to Golspie and Vale having to travel from the borders to Brora as well as Wicks annual mystery tour. Report
August 8, 201312 yr comment_152086 I add Newton Stewart to Fort William as a horror journey. Did that a few times when we were moving from N.S. to Ardnamurchan Report
August 8, 201312 yr comment_152087 Wanted to check this, since the qualifying cups were abolished, in the last few yrs Wick have played at 2012 - Spartans and Berwick Rangers 2011 - 2 home games, one of which involved Coldstream travelling however many miles to lose 9-1 2010 - Whitehill Welfare 2009 - (Clach) and Girvan 2008 - St Cuthberts, Edinburgh City (went to replay) 2007 - home game v Vale Report

September 16, 201312 yr comment_153203 Nice short return journey for Fort William Nae the longest journey on that list by far - Wicks journey was almost twice that of Newton Stewarts. There really should be regional groupings at this stage as its a huge expense for these smaller clubs. Journey distance: Wick 624 miles Buckie 580 miles Vale of Leithen 442 miles Edinburgh City 408 miles Turriff 398 miles Newton Stewart 360 miles Report

October 30, 201312 yr comment_154104 Celtic Park has been named by the Scottish Football Association as the venue for this year's Scottish Cup final on Saturday 17 May. Ibrox Stadium will also stage both of this season's semi-final matches. Hampden Park is unavailable due to redevelopment work taking place to lay track for the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. No doubt they never even bothered to consider Murrayfield. Report
