Good read about the historical rivalry between Auchinleck Talbot and Cumnock Juniors who play tonight.
Son in law used to play junior football in that area and told me about them and how tough the games are.

They don’t seem to forgive and forget😂
 
My kids are up in Edinburgh this weekend and planning on spending Saturday afternoon watching Hearts vs Falkirk...
Honest question, what can they expect??

Always a great atmosphere at Tynecastle.
Tell them to go to the Diggers pub. Not the real name but its nickname as it is next to a graveyard.


5 minutes from Tynecastle.
 
I love Super Ally, was a regular at Ibrox when he was banging in the goals.
But, being a fan of a team is not just about when you are winning.
I’m an Ally fan also, from his days at StJ before his move to Rangers, but also and mostly for his Scotland days and continuing passion for the national team.

A decent game with skill levels that may surprise them.
Tynecastle is one of the greatest UK grounds for atmosphere.
They will enjoy it if they are lucky enough to get tickets. ;)

I played Junior level for a few years when I was 18. Played Auchinleck in a cup tie and they were streets ahead of the East coast teams. They take their Junior football very, very seriously in the West.

They pumped us 3-0 and could easily have been 10.
 
Ridiculous stat from Saturday

Celtic fouls committed 16
Hibs fouls committed 1

This while Celtic had 77.2% possession!



I watched the match, the amount of soft "fouls" given against us was pathetic. Appalling refereeing performance.
