Civil Service Strollers are hoping to have Mackie Scott back from injury when seeking to emulate last season’s achievement of reaching the third round of the Scottish Gas Scottish Cup at Irvine Meadow on Saturday.
The star striker has scored five times in his last three games but missed out when Strollers extended an unbeaten run to four games with a Lowland League success at Broxburn last weekend.
Strollers 2023-24 cup run was only ended by League Three side, Stranraer.
In another boost for the Christie Gillies Park-based club Callum Yeats has been awarded “goal of the round” for his effort when Cumbernauld Colts were beaten last time in the Scottish Cup.
Also, Marc Laird has just been included in the Lowland League “team of the month”.
