Apologies for the poor quality of the link below, and the fact it's in Gaelic but BBCALBA covered the Junior Cup Final between Auchinleck and Hurlford live yesterday.

If I'm honest we were well below par on the day, and it's probably a travesty that we actually won the game, but win it we did. With Fergie time of 3 minutes announced we were losing 2-1. They got a goal kick, and their lardbucket of a keeper placed the ball on the corner of the six yard box, and then decided to waste some more time - he'd been doing it all game - and instead of taking the kick went back in his goal, picked up his water bottle and drank from it to waste another fifteen or so seconds. The massed ranks of the Talbot fans were going bananas at this, but ninety seconds later he'd picked the ball out of his own net twice as we staged THE most amazing comeback I've ever seen in a Cup Final. Delirious scenes just twenty seconds later as we'd won the Cup, and by doing so have earned the right to be in the senior Scottish Cup again next season, which for a small club like ours can be very lucrative indeed.

Congrats JDT. Turnarounds like that are part of what makes it magical eh. I bet the Talbot fans will be talking about that for a few generations. Like we do about Exeter, and Everton (twice), Anfield etc.
