UPDATES
1 January 2025 First updates of the New Year... East of Scotland League results have now been extended and now covers all seasons from 1923-24 through to 1986-87. I will continue to compile grids for the subsequent seasons and these will be added in due course. There are of course a large number of gaps in these grids so any further additional scores are most welcome.
Again I extend my thanks to John Weir for his continuing help with this project.
The EOS Qualifying Cup, King Cup and East of Scotland League Cup have also been updated.
22 December Results for seasons 1975-1979 have now been added to the East of Scotland League page. The King Cup and EOS Qualifying Cups have also been updated.
Mark Stewart has noted that the winners of the first North Ayrshire Cup in 1894 was actually Saltcoats Victoria, not Kilbirnie as originally noted, the original scoreline of 3-0 being reversed.
20 December the East of Scotland League page now has results from 1923-1972 and 1979-80. The seasons 1972-1979 will be added over the forthcoming week. The EOS Qualifying Cup, King Cup and East of Scotland League Cup pages have also been updated. Again many thanks to John for sharing his research with me. There are still many gaps in the record so any additions are most welcome!
9 December Mark Stewart, who is researching the history of football in Saltcoats, has noted that the result of Saltcoats' Seventh Round Scottish Junior Cup match against Arbroath Woodside was actually 2-1, not 7-1.
6 December
John Weir has been researching the early seasons of The Spartans and has uncovered a huge number of East of Scotland league and cup results for the period. He has generously sent me his research and the EOS Qualifying Cup and King Cup results from 1957-1963 have now been added. I've also done a bit of digging, and have added many results from 1963-1971 and 1976-1987.
Another competition we've unearthed was the original the East of Scotland League Cup which was competed for between 1967 and 1969. Organised to bolster the truncated League programme, the winners were awarded Thomas H Dodds Trophy in memory of the late EOSFA President. The results for this cup have also been added to the site.
Results for the seasons from 1987 to the present day for these three competitions will be added to the site in the near future.
John's research also includes EOS League results for the late 1950s and 60s and these will be added to the site over the next week or so.
21 November
Tom McGouran has added more Quarter-final info for the in the Scottish Junior Cup Records spreadsheet. These can be viewed in the UPDATES tab of the spreadsheet.
20 November further revisions on the Attendance Records have been carried out by Simon.
14 November More of the missing East Fife Amateur League winners have been supplied by Gordon Hunter. Still needed are the champions from 1954-55, 1973-74 and 1978-1980.
Simon Reynolds has revised the Attendance Records spreadsheet
12 November more Lanarkshire Cup results from Bob Beresford involving Dykehead in 1881-82 and 1896-97.
10 November
Peter Ross has unearthed the missing semi-final result for the 1880-81 Lanarkshire Cup
25 Dec 1880 Thistle v Cambuslang 2-1
This means that a 'Third round' match between Hamilton Accies and Cambuslang in March 1881 couldn't be a Lanarkshire Cup-tie. Which beggars the question... did Accies actually enter the Cup that season?
3 November John Weir has supplied a few more results for the 1951-52 East of Scotland League
30 October Stuart Robertson's Juniors records have been added to the Attendance Records spreadsheet by David Ross. David has also sent me a spreadsheet detailing the Scottish Junior Cup finals and semi-finals since 1887. There are also records of the quarter-finals from 1941-2014.
Any help with either of these are most welcome!
14 October
Stuart Robertson has created a new website that will host his extensive research into the Juniors. So far there are about 20 seasons with records covering the whole of Scotland... dates, results and final tables.

10 October
Brian Coulter has sent me a number of 'latest' tables regarding the 1960s Aberdeenshire Junior League.
More Attendance Records are added thanks to David Ross.
8 October After a number of weeks of research, I'm able to publish an extensive record of league and cup matches for Junior leagues and cups in Kincardineshire.
This research has also meant a slight rewriting of the winners lists of some competitions.
For example, the 1908-09 Dawson Cup was actually awarded to the Kincardineshire Junior League champions and didn't become a standalone competition until the following season. The winners of the cup for this pre-WW1 period has also been extensively amended.
2 October David Ross, founder and mentor of the now sadly defunct scottishleague.net, has submitted a huge list of record attendances for over 450 clubs. Due to my ongoing research of Kincardineshire junior competitions (which I hope to publish next week), I currently don't have the time to collate the two spreadsheets so I've added David's work to the current sheet and can be accessed via the tabs.
6 September Thanks to ANGUS MACKAY, I have been able to publish a comprehensive record of football in CAITHNESS since the 1880s, with league and cup winners from numerous competitions competed for by the County FA and Wick FA. Also here are match results from various leagues and cups organised by the Wick FA.
Two downloads are also available...

13 March
SCOTTISH HIGHLAND LEAGUE, Dates, Results and Final Tables 1893-2024 further research by myself, Craig Tyreman and James Barrie has seen the missing matches reduced to NINE.
James has also sent in results grids for the North Region Junior League, covering 1975-1991, continuing on from the previous grids he supplied for 1968-1975.
9 March SCOTTISH HIGHLAND LEAGUE, Dates, Results and Final Tables 1893-2024 now added. After four months of extensive research, 99.95% of every match has been found, with a mere 19 matches needing verified.
My sincere thanks goes to Bob McNally for his unwavering help in getting this project completed
The Highland League Cup, Aberdeenshire League, and North Caledonian League are also updated
