Talbot take on Montrose Roselea in the Scottish Junior Cup 1st Round after the draw was made at Lochee United. The tie is scheduled for the week commencing 21st August and it will be the first time the clubs have met since 1987 where Talbot ran out 5-2 winners at Montrose FC’s Links Park.
The winners will be faced with a trip to either Carluke Rovers or Sunnybank in the second round.The full draw for both rounds are:
After a lot of blood sweat and tears by the club we have been awarded our Scottish Football Association membership which will come into effect on the 20th July after the association AGM. Our membership means that we are eligible for promotion in the Scottish tier system as well as having instant entry into the Scottish Cup.
The club along with the Beechwood Regeneration Committee and independent volunteers worked hard to upgrade our beloved Beechwood Park, but let’s not forget a lot of the work needed to gain our license was done behind the scenes. Thanks to the sterling work by Campbell Peden and his hard working colleagues the final acts needed to put the club into the association were finalised only a few months ago.
It seems strange that when the death knell was ringing for the Juniors, Talbot were one of the remaining club’s who were vocal about the change and still wanted to be part of the SJFA. With the wind of change blowing fiercely throughout Scottish non-league football the club has to be applauded for Embracing the Future and striving to better themselves in this new dawning.
The club would like to thank everybody who volunteered their service to the upgrade of our ground and all the supporters who financially backed all our ventures. Without the club, its sponsors and the magnificent Talbot Army all this work to help Talbot progress would be little more than a pipe dream.

Talbot held on to the Hugh Blair Trophy after a tousy battle with hosts Neilston at Brig O’ Lea park
on Saturday. It was a match that saw both keepers being void of any saves to make as both sides nulified each other which resulted in a poor game overall.
Playing down the slope Neilston were the quickest out the traps forcing three corners in the opening five minutes, but these were well dealt with by the Talbot defence, On 8 minutes Talbot won their first corner which was cleared into the path of Bain but his speculative shot was well past the goals.
Neilston were dealt a blow on 16 minutes when their experienced defender Doyle had to go off with an injury he had picked up after a tussle with Samson, and was replaced by Haggerty who had just featured in the Development match an hour earlier. Two minutes later the first clear cut chance fell to the home side when a cross into the box by Bulger was missed by the Talbot defence but although managing to fashion an opening Jones miss hit his effort and it trundled into the hands of Leishman,
Neilston keeper Digney took a sore one on 27 minutes when he collided with McDowall as both players had an eye on the ball when Shanland whipped in a superb cross. A minute later Talbot looked to have taken the lead when Craig McCracken headed a Shankland corner off the underside of the bar where it looked to be well over the line before being cleared by Halliday. With no official linesmen in place the referee waved play on.
The game decended into a door midfield battle after this with both sides defending well, but failing to create many chances. The last real bit of action was when Shankland again found the head of McCracken but his diving headed went a couple of feet past the post.
At the start of the second half Talbot replaced Healy, Pearson, Boyd, Samson and McDowall with Robbie McCracken, White, Glasgow, Boylan and Armstrong. While the home side swapped McLaughlan with Fletcher.
The second half was hardly started when the first talking point emereged when McPherson and Brophy both went for a loose ball which resulted in the Talbot man picking up a yellow card as the Neilston player went through a series of rolls and screams, before playing on minutes later, much to the disgust of the travelling support.
Ten minutes into the second half Boylan cut down the right wing before sending in a delightful ball which was missed by a couple of Talbot players who actually got in each others way. Willie Lyle was next in the book when he swept the feet from Haddow as the player tried to set up an attack. Things were now getting fiesty with R. McCracken and Stirling squaring up to each other, and minutes later the Talbot youngster was in the book after fouling Loughlin.
Shortly after Boylan and Bain split the home defence with a break down the right wing but when the cross came over White was unable to stear his header toward the target. The breathrough came in the 72 minutes thanks to some neat play by Boylan where he picked the ball up in the box before smashing it past the keeper and a number of players.
This was to be the last real action of any note as Talbot weathered a late Neilston comeback where tension again rose with Brophy going into the book for mouthing after Fletcher had the ball in the net but he was well offside.
All in it was a good win in a match with few chances, but no doubt it was a good work out by both sides.
Leishman, Bain, Lyle, McPherson, C.McCracken, Healy, Pearson. Boyd, Samson, Shankland, McDowall. SUBS: R.McCracken, White, Glasgow, Boylan, Armstrong, Hewitt.
Talbot face Neilston FC hoping to retain the Hugh Blair Trophy this Sat 26 June at Brig O Lea Stadium, Neilston. It’s hoped that supporters will be allowed to attend the match due to the country slowly emerging from lock down, but at the moment due to restrictions the crowd capacity could be set at 250.
Talbot are the current holders of the Hugh blair trophy after defeating Neilston 2-0 back in July 2019, where late goals by Keir Samson and Aiden Wilson were enough to give Talbot the win.
The Farmer Boys have been strengthing their squad as the new season looms and have already bagged the Kenny Hay pre-season trophy which the won 5-4 in a two legged affair against old rivals Arthurlie.
