VALE MATCH SET FOR 16TH AS TASTY HOME DRAW AWAITS THE WINNERS

Fixture secretary Kenny Young has pencilled Saturday the 16th of December for the postponed Scottish Cup trip to Alexandria. Heavy frost put paid to any hopes of football last Saturday when Vale of Leven’s Millburn Park was rock solid as Scotland shivered in sub zero temperatures. This means Talbot’s home league match against Gartcairn will be rescheduled for later on in the season.

The quarter final draw on Friday was kind enough to Talbot by producing a home tie, but it could mean an all Ayrshire match against Hurlford United if Darren Henderson’s men can overcome second division side Caledonian Locomotive’s at Blair Park.

The next round looks set for the 10th of February.

The full draw for the quarter finals is:

Vale of Leven/Talbot v Hurlford United/Caledonian Locomotives,

Darvel/Larkhall Thistle v Lochee United,

Johnstone Burgh/Dundee Downfield v Stonehaven/St Cadocs,

Rothie Rovers/Bellshill v Benburb/Arthurlie

THE LAST MAN STANDING KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY

The new Talbot fundraiser “Last Man Standing” kicks off this Saturday with supporters being asked to pit their wits against fellow colleagues as they try to be the last man standing. With admission set at a tenner the fans are asked to pick a side who they think will win this weekend’s EPL matches. The ones that pick a winning side move onto the following week where they have to come up with the goods again. The only problem for the winners is they can’t pick the same team for the rest of the competition until there’s only one person left to take the prize money.

If anybody is interested in joining then get in touch with Jim Dunsmore. With the imminent weather it looks like it might be the only football we will be involved with for a number of weeks.

TALBOT TRAVEL TO THE VALE ON SATURDAY WHILE TROON NAMED AS VISITORS THE FOLLOWING WEEK.

Talbot travel to Alexandria next week to take on WOSL Third Division side Vale of Leven in the Scottish Junior Cup 4th Round. This will be  the first ever meeting of the two clubs, and it should attract a decent crowd to the sprawling terraces of Millburn Park. The Vale who were Junior Cup winners back in 1953 when they beat Annbank United 1-0 at Hampden in front of 55,000 have been finding the going a bit tough as they languish in the second bottom tier of the WOSL

They have already disposed of Newmacher, Carluke Rovers and Montrose Roselea in the cup and will be desperate to add a big scalp to this season’s tournament.

The Millburn Park club are steeped in history winning the SFA Scottish cup three times in a row back in the 1800’s.  At the start of  World War Two , Vale Of Leven promptly joined the ranks of the SJFA thus bringing to a final end 67 years of membership of the SFA  an association the club had helped to create. Their first junior match was against Vale of Clyde at Milburn Park in 1940 with the Vale’s proudest junior moment winning the Junior Cup in 1953.

The match has a 1.30 KO due to Millburn Park having no lights.

Last Saturday Troon became the opposition in the Indigo Comms West of Scotland Cup after defeating  Girvan 5-1 at Portland Park. The game takes place on Saturday 9th December with a 2pm KO.

 


 

TALBOT HEAD TO BARRHEAD IN SEARCH OF POINTS

With the South Challenge Cup disappointment from last week firmly behind them Talbot travel to Dunterlie Park to take on Arthurlie in a league match that both sides will be desperate to win. The teams last met on the 9th of September when it looked like Talbot were cruising to the three points after Bryan Boylan and Ross Smith put the “Bot” into a 2-0 lead, but a late relapse let the Barrhead side back into the game when Dylan Dykes pulled one back from the penalty spot and with minutes remaining Sam Greenwood bundled the ball home after sloppy defending from Talbot.

Kyle hobbles off in a debut he will want to forget.

It’s been a tough gig for the “Lee” only gathering four points from a possible fifteen since they last recorded a league win back on the 23rd of September winning 2-1 at Troon. It’s all a far cry from the beginning of the season when they won their opening four league matches but since August they have failed to record a home win at Dunterlie.

Talbot at the moment have one thing on their minds and that is to consolidate a strong position in the league and they know that last weeks performance was not good enough and a similar display will no doubt not be excepted by the travelling support from Auchinleck & district who turned up in large numbers last week at Broxburn.

The fans will indeed be intrigued to see if Tucker tweaks the line up as Jamie Glasgow and Scott Urquhat will be available after being cup tied last week, and with Scott Schoneville  and Tarek Abed back to fitness and Kyle McAvoy probably raring to go after being laid off after a freak injury at Port Glasgow the Talbot faithful will be desperate to see if these players are worthy of a start. . No word on Craig McCracken at the moment, but the rest of the squad look to be fit to go.

The Talbot urge the support to get to Barrhead and get behind the boys as we strive to get away from the relegation zone where unfortunately Arthurlie find themselves at the moment.

TALBOT BADGERED OUT OF CHALLENGE CUP

Shoddy defending and lacklustre attacking saw Talbot exit the South Challenge Cup in an afternoon fraught with schoolboy defending and a red card to boot. The healthy Talbot support left Albyn Park wondering if they had been put out the cup by a half decent side or whether their performance merited such a disappointing result. Read all the match reports, tap into the match stats and watch the video of a day the Talbot Army would like to forget. Click on match reports.
