  • The Scottish Junior Cup Has Been O.V.D
    O.V.D. SCOTTISH .IUNIOR CUP ~INAL Sunday, 18th May 1997 ~ POLLOK F.C. • ~ TAVPO:T F.C. ~ Fir Park, Mothervvell Kick-off 3.00pm Oll=ll=ICIAL PROCRAMME - PRICE £ 144·1#1•=i43J9;ii 2·iilW t doesn't seem twelve months since Tayport were here at Fir IPark, claiming the O.V.D. Cup following their 2-0 extra-time victory over Camelon, but the ambitious young club from North-east Fife are back again, trying to retain the title they won so honourably last year. Tayport's impact on the Junior scene in seven short years since their admission has been quite remarkable . And this year 's Final pitches them against Pollok, another side who have also a very good record in the Cup since they won it for the first time in 1981 when they defeated Arthurlie. Despite both sides having regularly promessed to the advanced stages of the competition on a regular basis, this will only be the second meeting between the pair with Tayport out to exact revenge for the defeat inflicted upon them back in 1991 , Tayport's first season in the ranks of the Juniors . From the evidence of both semi-finals, an exciting encounter looks guaranteed this afternoon . Pollok were worthy winners against Blantyre Victoria at Adamslie Park, whilst Tayport's narrow win over Arthurlie was a very closely contested affair. I am more sure that both club's will do the occasion justice as both sides put the accent on skill. Match of the Day The last two finals have been clean sporting affairs and I would prevail on both clubs for a repeat of that discipline on the field.
