Today's quarter final tie will be our 18th Scottish tie since joinin9 the Junior ranks in 1990/91. Only two clubs in Scotland have played more in that period - Auchinleck Talbot and Glenafton, last season's finalists. Before I 9ive my thou9hts on today's encounter, I'd like to talk briefly on the four games which have come and gone since the last -issue of the Port Pr09, which of course, was our 3-1 victory in the 5th round over the Central Premier Division's Shettleston. I know and our players know, that we didn't fire on all cylinders that day. We played below the standards which we've set a9ainst, I must say, a very 900d side. But, at the end of the day, we scored three very well worked goals to their sole penalty counter which, incidentally, is the only ,1oal we've conceded in the past six games, scoring 24 in the process. We tend to struggle to lift ourselves the week after a Scottish tie but, after a sticky first twenty minutes, we ran out comfortable winners in the league fixture away to lochee United, winning 5-0 and gaining two valuable points. The following week we faced the unenviable journey to Fraserburgh in the Zamoyski Cup. I felt that we played exceptionally well for fifteen minutes, went 2-0 up then stopped. We eventually scored again with ten minutes remaining to make it 3-0 but I felt a bit frustrated and disappointed that we didn't carry on the standard we set early in the 9ame. However, we're through and, I believe, blessed with a home tie in the quarter finals versus Kirrie Thistle. Last week was much more pleasin11- The standard much better and the reward is a cup final place at McDiarmid Park thanks to a 4-0 win at Carnoustie and, of course, I don't have to remind our fans of the last time we were at the home of St Johnstone. But I will anyway ! A 2-0 win over Jeanfield SWifts brln9in9 the first of the nine trophies we've brou9ht back to the Canniepairt since. It was a proud moment for me to see Geor9e Malone pick up our first trophy and probably for him too, something he thou11ht he would never do a9ain. Great Stuff! And of Forget the rest - course to see our players piped on and off the park. Happy memories indeed. So,311 in all, it hasn't been a bad month and to see Frank l))lan and Kevin ,. Thoms back in a Tayport jersey was really heartenin9. Great for them and the Club. Our players need no introduction to our opponents today and they know, as well as I do, we will have to play to the required standard to overcome them. But thay also know, as I do, we have the talent and the ability. I tell our players now - produce the form and attitude :y.ou•ve shown many times this season, then we'll be in the last four. I've no doubts in my mind whatsoever about that.

Support The Port, Dave Baikie. ******* GROUNDDEVELOPMENTS Tayport fans will have noticed the improvements which have 9radua11y been re-shaping Main Street, BARRY. the Canniepairt these past few months. A new terracin9 has been constructed on the south side of the 9round.
