ED007 watching STV tonight and they are saying the SFA chose Hamilton for our cup game without consulting East Kilbride who apparently wanted Hampden or Motherwell, obviously for a bigger crowd as New Douglas park only holds 6,000. Surely the SFA are depriving wee thistle of much needed revenue, very strange as surely the SFA are meant to HELP their member clubs.

As a good will gesture we should tell EK to keep the gate money in my opinion. The chances are they will never ever be in a position to earn money like this ever again.

Wee Pat SFA only care about what suits them. Take for example Rangers (R. I. P) . They should of been treated the same way as Gretna. They folded and their membership to league system was revoked.

On plus side for East Kilbride, this will arguably be the biggest game in their history. Every man and their dog from East Kilbride will want to watch game. So hopefully bigger stadium will generate extra gate revenue for them.

Ficklefan the idea came from Joesmo1888 and NOT me, I seem to be getting credited with a lot of other people's posts.

My only issue with New Douglas Park is the surface. Am I right in thinking it's a 3G pitch?

Nice sentiments Joe but Peter $ law unto himself stands in the way.
