Tranent Again!

 

This Wednesday evening we travel to Forresters Park to play Tranent in the Quarter Finals of the EoS Qualifying Cup. This will be the third time we will have met this season. Nothing unusual you might think, however, we are due to meet them yet again at CG Park on 17th February in the 2nd round of the League Cup. Thats four times this season!!

Honours are even at the moment with one victory each. Strollers won 1-0 at home but then lost 0-4 away in the league Fixtures.

The winners of this Wednesday’s  tie will take on Bonnyrigg Rose in the semis.

We will have to stop meeting like this!
