Shotts were founded in 1950, a halcyon period in the Junior game , and the Lanarkshire side's ground reflects that. It didn't take Shotts long to make their mark, winning the Scottish Junior Cup in 1958 in their only final appearance, a 2-0 win over Souters Sportsturf Ltd . Cunningham Road Pumpherston . Apart from a West of Scotland Cup win in 1964, Springkerse . Stirling . FK7 7SL Shotts did not set the heather oh fire in the ensuing 30 years or so. Telephone . 01786 472141 Fax . 01786 465963/472233 Shotts hit the headlines in 1995, however, but it was for all the wrong reasons . Whilst riding high in the Central Premier Division , AS SPECIALIST SPORTSTURF they were unabJe to fulfil a local cup-tie v Thomiewood and DESIGNERS AND CONTRACTORS submitted a number of medical certificates to support their claim that they could not field a team. WE CAN OFFER A COMPLETE The Central Region did not accept this and a legal wrangle ensued. PROFESSIONAL DESIGN AND Eventually the matter ended with Shotts being thrown, not just out CONSTRUCT PACKAGE of the cup, but also out of the league for season 1995/96 and had to INCLUDING LABORATORY pay £6,000 + to cover the Central Region's legal fees . ANALYSIS OF MATERIALS However, like every good story there was a happy ending . Shotts had TOGETHER WITH ALL REMEDIAL to start off in the bottom division of the Central League when they returned in 1996/97 but they haven't looked back and have gone AND CLOSE SEASON WORKS straight through the divisions in successive seasons, winning the League Cup on the way, culminating in winning the Central League Championship last season . At the time of writing they are on course WE CAN ALSO PROVIDEA FULL to retain that title and are currently unbeaten in the league. RANGE OF SPECIALIST During this amazing revival under Rab Sneddon and Harry Erwin , EQUIPMENT FOR HIRE: Scottish Cup glory has eluded the Bons but, in reaching the last 32 for the first time in five years, Shotts fans will look forward to next week's tie with confidence .

Tayport's population of 100 years ago was 3,325, little different from the present day. A train from Ta yport station to London Kings Cross via the railway line that ran along the side of the park, where the enclosure is situated now, cost £3 9s Sd for a 3rd class return . There was also a ferryboat service to Broughty Ferry and Tay Pleasure Steamers called in to Tayport harbour which also dealt with cargoes of wood and esparto grass. Prior to the building of the Tay Bridge twenty or so years previously, Tayport had been an important railhead. A book referring to Tayport at the turn of the century, stated that 'the good folks of Tayport were regular churchgoers'. The fact that there were four churches and thriving Brethren, Salvation Army and Baptists groups seemed to confirm that . As far as industry was concerned, there were two factories in the town for the spinning of yarn and the manufacture of linen and jute. There were also two engineering workshops, a sawmill, two bobbin factories, a wood turning shop and the town could also boast a Fine Art Printing centre . · Socially there were a number of societies etc. including Lodge of Good Templars(de scribed as 'quite an aggressive body'}; the· Rocha bites, Choral Society. Horticultural Society and YMCA . Tennis, curling, billiards, cricket and golf were active pursuits in the town JOO years ago . Scotscraig GC had 400 members. Gentlemen paid an entrance fee of £3.3s and an annual subscription of £1. A visitor's ticket was 2s 6d (12.Sp). Among the shops in the town was James Bisset the Pharmacist in Castle Street who advertised 'teeth painlessly extracted on the premises'. Hardie & Co. was the ladies & gentlemen 's tailor s in Castle Street. Melville & Co. manufacured Lemonades of 'excellent flavour and bouquet, well charged with pure carbonic gas' SNIFFING ABOUT WITH THE SNOUT There may have been a goodly number of postponements these last few weeks but the situation gave Tayside secretary Jock Myles the opportunity to take in FIVE third round ties. Must be a record, said Jock. The ties were Glenrothes v Auchinleck, Thornton v Arthurlie, Hill of Beath v Newtongrange Star, Forfar West End v Tayport and Maryhill v Neilston. The Maryhill game on Monday past was quite a tie, by all accounts. Jock reports that the ref. overuled his assistant over the only goal of the game, a penalty kick which half of the crowd DALGLEISH STiREET • TAYPORT thought wasn't a foul and the other half thought had happened outside the area Telephone: 01 382 S52388 anyway. There were nine bookings and two players sent off to add to the fun. Jock reported the attendance as two and a half thousand while another source ♦♦♦ gave it as 'around 350'. Jock was accompanied at the match by that doyen of the Port Support, Jim Spalding. BAR LUNCHES Managerial changes in the East Region recently include former Dundee striker and Tayport Amateurs coach Eric Sinclair taking over at Camelon. Eric left Linlithgow Rose earlier this season. George Fairley, his replacement , has left SERVED EVERY DAY Rose to manage East Stirlingshire. Alan McGonigal takes over the reins at Prestonfield. ♦♦♦ North cracks Sunnybank have been sensationally thrown out of the Concept Trophy after Lochee United successfully protested that the Aberdeen club had SELECTION OF fielded an ineligible player against them. To add to Sunnybank's woe, they were fined £200. However the matter is not finished as it is understood that Sunnybank have lodged an appeal with the SJFA. REAL ALES ALWAYS ON TAP Controversy reigned at Starks _Park on Monday when Dunfermline's Owen Coyle was sent off v Raith on the say so of the referee's assistant, Mr McGregor of the Tayside Region. Coyle was adamant that he was totally innocent but off he went. Shotts, next week's cup opponents, were well rewarded for their efforts in getting Hannah Park playable for their last round tie v Bo'ness on 18 December. The referee declared the pitch unplayable at 9.30am but hard graft , tarpaulins and heaters ensured that a second inspection two hours later got the thumbs up from the official. The sweepie for the last Tayport FC goal of the Millennium was a bit of a _ ~jmp squib, Kenny Jones v Elmwood on Dec. 4th turning out to be the final : , -' al of the twentieth century. Not a damp squib as far as Matthew Lawso~ - ·s concerned.
