Fantastic result, I follow the West of Scotland league due to my dad living in Largs, not too far from Largs Thistle’s ground and it’s a fantastic result not just for Auchinleck but for football in Ayrshire and the junior football scene in Scotland as a whole.

Saw the goal on the news this morning. Was that you in the butcher's coat Jock?

Watched the game - thought you easily deserved the win and was impressed with the standard of play. Good luck in the next round!

It was a superb day all round. I only got back from Tenerife at 9pm the night before and quickly reactivated the Paddy Power account I last used during the 2016 Olympics and got £20 on at 14/1. There was a huge disparity between what Power, Bet 365 (both at 14/1) and the other bookies though, with Hills only offering 8/1 on the day.
Draw for the ext round after the Hearts vs Livingston tie this afternoon. Am starting to shake....

It is for Hearts funnily enough because we'll have a huge away support with us. We've got unfinished business there. We played them in the Cup in 2011-12 and they scored in the 84th minute to take the lead and we had an equalising goal wrongly chalked off for offside in the 94th minute. When the draw was made for the game the Hearts club secretary was quoted in the press the next day saying that the club were very pleased with the draw because only the Old Firm or Hibs would have taken a bigger support to Tynecastle! We had about 2,700 - 2,800 there on the day and I hope we can add another 50% on top of that given the exposure we've had. We made about £40k from that game and it was wisely invested in two new players, but more importantly in the infrastructure. We won the next four Super League titles on the back of that cash. Yesterday we made £32k from the BBC, plus the crowd takings. We spent £12k of that before getting it on frost free covers for the pitch. If the game had been postponed we'd not get anything from them, so we've again invested in our infrastructure for the future. We're bound to be on the BEEB again, being the only non league club left in the competition, and the back story of our previous tie with Hearts, and I assume that'll be in the region of £45 - £50k for us. Without benign loans to pay off everything will be spent on the club and it will keep us going financially for the next five or six years. When the club asked for help from supporters yesterday morning to help take off the covers over 70 folk turned up at 7am to do so. It's that kind of club. We're going to attract a lot more media coverage and again that's only going to b beneficial to the club. BTW, bar the players and management of the club there are no paid employees, everyone does their job voluntarily. Our committee have folk with 30 plus years service on it, and that's the real secret of our success - every penny we get automatically goes back into the club. Think the game will be moved to the Sunday as Scotland host Ireland in the 6 Nations at Murrayfield on the Saturday and Hearts never play at home when Scotland are playing there due to the close proximity of both stadia.
