This Saturday Talbot have the chance to reach their first cup final as they go head to head with Glasgow cracks Pollok FC at Beechwood Park in the hope they can retain the Indigo Comms West of Scotland League Cup which they won 2-0 last season after defeating Clydebank.
Pollok come to Auchinleck on the back of a 2-1 win over Hurlford United last Saturday and have hit a bit of form with a 1-1 draw against Beith and 4-2 and 3-0 wins over Darvel and Hurlford in the league. This will be Tucker and Maxie’s first cup joust since the former Rob Roy manager took over at Newlandsfield in November 2022
A lot of Pollok’s success this season is down to 30 goal striker Adam Forde who has been a revelation in a side that has sometimes failed to produce. The 28 year old former Stranraer striker who joined Pollok from Kilbirnie in 2017 is one that will need to be watched.
A large crowd is expected for the match so make sure your down early.
The winners of today’s tie will play either Shotts or Darvel who face-off at Hannah Park this afternoon.
