UPDATES

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.

Over the coming months I will be researching the Angus and Dundee Junior competitions, so once  again updates posted here will be kept to a minimum!

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
