Albion have released the following information regarding our visit next Saturday.

Albion Rovers can today confirm ticketing arrangements for our upcoming Scottish Gas Men’s Scottish Cup first round tie against Auchinleck Talbot.

We host Tommy Sloan’s West of Scotland Premier Division title-chasers on Saturday, September 28, with kick-off at 3pm.

And with a big crowd expected at The Reigart Stadium, the club has decided to make admission on the day CASH ONLY with no card payment option available at the ground.

Instead, those wishing to pay by card can do so digitally beforehand via Ticket Tailor.

You will be sent a digital QR code which acts as a match ticket – so please remember to print it off or have it ready and available on your phone.

We would ask supporters to buy in advance as this will help the club gauge interest and allow us to make the best preparations possible for what is set to be a cracking cup tie.

Tickets have been set at our normal league pricing structure, with a £1 booking fee to cover additional fees incurred.

Pricing is as follows: Adults – £11 | Concessions – £6 | Under-14s – £3.

Please purchase the correct ticket (home fan or away fan) – taking into account the eligibility for concessions and the need for an adult to accompany those under the age of 16.

The Coatbridge side side currently sits in 11th place of the Lowland League with 12 points from 9 games. Last week a 91st minute goal got them a 2-2 draw with bottom side East Stirling.

The club coach is ex- Hearts and Rangers striker Sandy Clark. Any further information on our opponents can be found on albionroversfc.com

Set you sat-navs for Reigart Stadium, Main St, Coatbridge, ML5 3RB because we certainly need you.

Willie Young Supporters bus leaves Talbot Club at 1pm this Saturday.

TALBOT THANKS

ATFC wishes to thank Kenny Paterson for his recent kind donation towards our Pitch Development Fund.

Talbot travel to Largs this weekend to face the local “Jags” in a match they have to take something from to keep up with the leading pack at the top of the division. The match has a 2pm kick off

Since the inception of the Pyramid System Talbot have travelled to Barrfields three times and are still to record a win. With two defeats and a draw which was in the first season of the Premier League, Talbot have failed to score on their last two visits.

The North Ayrshire side also have still to taste defeat at home this season and with top hit man Willie Sewell leading the line the Talbot defence will have to be a bit more stingy than they have in the last two games as the habit of gifting goals continues.

Last week’s match on the plastic carpet will be a good pointer to today’s match as the team adapted well to the astro, and hopefully that experience sets us up for a stirring encounter.

The Thistle defence will have to be breached this Saturday, but with the home outfit still to lose a goal at Barrfields this season its going to take a monumental performance to come up with the goods, and the club ask you to come along and cheer us on.

The Willie Young Loyal bus leaves the Talbot Club at 12 noon, non-members welcome by contacting the club officials.

Admission prices are £9 adults, £6 concessions, children under 16 free but with an adult.

Plenty of food available

Set the Sat-nav for  69-72 Brisbane Rd, Largs KA30 8NL

TALBOT THANKS

Auchinleck Talbot wish to thank the fans of Lossiemouth United who gave the club a £200 donation for charity. This money will be donated to Glennie House Care Home in Auchinleck. Thanks again to everyone at Lossiemouth United.

A shell-shocked Talbot squad will know they will have to take something from this potential banana skin of a tie after the shambles of last week. This Saturday we travel to Newton Park in Bo’ness to face cup experts Bo’ness Athletic who have already overcame Kilwinning Rangers and Beith in the Scottish Cup prelims, and no doubt they will be up for today’s game after our 3-2 humiliation to North minnows Lossiemouth United.

Under the leadership of ex-Pollok gaffer and Hibs player Willie Irvine, Athletic are making a concerted effort in trying to get themselves into the EOSL Premier Division. Last week they battled out a 0-0 draw with fellow promotion contenders Camelon at Newton Park.

Although Talbot have already beaten EOSL Premier league sides Hutchison Vale and Haddington so far this season, the fact that Athletic have already dumped two Ayrshire sides out of the premier competition in recent weeks has certainly caught the Talbot’s attention.

With the Junior Cup having been earmarked by most of the Talbot fans as a winnable competition now passed them by, they will certainly expect a concerted effort by the players to to try and stay in this cup.

Most of us will have been to Newton Park at one time or another, but if not set your sat-nav to :                                                                                        Newtown Park
Jamieson Avenue,
Boness,
EH51 0DP

KO is 2.30pm and admission according to the  EOSL website is £7 adults, £4 concessions and children under 16 free.

Talbot are on the road again after the first round proper was drawn live at Hampden by Team GB’s Jack Carlin on Sunday afternoon. This time we travel to face Lowland League side Albion Rovers on the 28th of September at Cliftonville. The Rovers currently sit 12th in their division losing three out of their seven starts to former Junior sides Linlithgow, Broxburn and Bo’ness.

At the moment the “Wee Rovers” are managed by former Rangers and Hearts striker Sandy Clark and his assistant Michael Paton who can list Aberdeen as one of his former clubs.

Clark took over in March 2023 but couldn’t halt Rovers misfortune as they were relegated after losing the play-offs against Spartans. In his first full season they finished 9th in the league 35 points off the eventual winners East Kilbride, this season his side are still mid-table and had a disappointing 3-3 home draw against third bottom Gala Fairydean last week.

The draw concerning other WOSL sides is: Brora Rangers v Cumnock, Buckie Thistle v Carluke Rovers, Mussleburgh v Darvel, Burntisland v Irvine Meadow, Clydebank v Girvan and Cowdenbeath v Rutherglen Glencairn.

This Saturday Talbot embark on their 2024/25 Scottish Junior Cup adventure with a visit from North of Scotland JFA’s  Lossiemouth United.  The lads from Phoenix Park have a daunting 400+ mile round trip to play this match so hopefully the players, officials and supporters have an enjoyable visit to Beechwood.

The Junior side currently play in the NJFA Championship which is a division below the Premier which hosts Bridge of Don FC who took us to a penalty shoot out last season up in Aberdeen.

United are sitting eighth in their division having only played three games, winning two with their only defeat being to New Elgin in the opening league match. Last week they enjoyed a 5-2 away win at Dufftown but it could prove to be a busy afternoon for United keeper Stephen Dey (Pictured right) as Talbot might have discovered their shooting boots after last weeks 4-1 win over Haddington.

Talbot have a 100% record at home against North opposition which they will be hoping to hang on too, but United are an unknown force so the lads will be showing the boys from the north the respect they deserve.

Get along to Beechwood this Saturday and cheer on the “Bot”

Talbot stalwart Gareth Armstrong has left the club and joined our premier rivals Hurlford United for an undisclosed fee. Gareth who joined the Talbot back in July 2017 played over 240 games for the club, and won more than a few honours in the gold & black.

After joining from Troon the ex-Ayr United player made his debut against Glenafton Athletic (Home), on the 2nd August 2017, in the Ardagh League Cup. He scored his first competitive goal for Talbot against his former club Troon (Away), on the 12th May 2018, in the West of Scotland 3rd Round which we won 3-1.

Gareth made his debut for his new club last week against Troon playing 63 minutes in a 3-1 defeat. Everybody wishes him all the best in his new venture, and thanks him for all the amazing memories he left us with.
