Hibs: The Final Answer

David Smith, Liberton: "I think the inclusion of Junior Clubs in the Scottish Cup is a fantastic boost to the competition. The chance now exists for these teams to gain some exposure in the media and more importantly, some much needed finance. Cup shocks and upsets are usually rare in Scotland but is one of the main sources of interest in the English FA Cup."

Rab Kelly, Carricknowe: "I think it's a great idea for junior sides playing in the Scottish Cup. It gives the game a fresh meaning and most have bigger supports than the bottom two leagues in Scotland. I think it's time there was relegation from division three as well to let junior teams in the Scottish league. There are too many deadwood clubs in the comfort zone down there."

Graham Brown, Glasgow: "It's a precedent for restructuring the whole set up of Scottish football, a movement towards a tiered system that will eventually allow teams to find their true level. We have teams like Montrose, Albion Rovers and Berwick Rangers who have lumbered in the bottom levels of Scottish league football for years and years, where progressive clubs in the junior ranks hit a ceiling and can go no further. There are senior clubs like Preston Athletic and Burntisland Shipyards who are only senior in name and I bet they are no better or worse than the cubs in the junior ranks of the game. The level in the junior game is no worse than the third or even the second division in Scotland and to allow them the chance to prove it against the seniors in the Scottish Cup is a progressive move. I hope soon that the league will be restructured and teams like the "Medda" and Bonnyrigg Rose etc can take their place at their level in the game."

Carol Hendry, Edinburgh: " We were on a hiding to nothing in this game, so no I don't think they should be included, it brings nothing to the competition."

Alan Hall, Lochend: "A chance for some of the cash from the senior game to be shared out amongst the smaller clubs in Scotland, and the chance for a shock, it will do more good than harm. And if it improves the quality of their training facilities then it might just provide more quality players in Scottish football, a small but a very important step for the country's football future."
