Irvine Meadow cup-tie information

Following discussions between the clubs, admission prices for our forthcoming William Hill Scottish Cup third round tie against Irvine Meadow XI have been set at £10 for adults and £5 for concessions.

The match is scheduled for Saturday, November 19 and will kick off at 2pm.  The earlier kick off time is necessary as Meadow Park does not have a floodlighting system.

In the event of a postponement, the first rearranged date will the following Saturday, November 26, with the same kick off time.

Irvine Meadow's long time home, Meadow Park is an excellent ground by junior standards, benefitting from a well maintained and substantial seated stand.  The remaining three sides of the ground are uncovered terracing.  The playing surface is widely regarded as the best in Scottish junior football.

We will become only the second Scottish Football League club to visit Meadow Park for a Scottish Cup tie.  Arbroath lost there two seasons ago during Meadow's run to the fourth round, where they eventually lost 3-0 to Hibernian at Easter Road.

Further matchday information for travelling supporters, including car parking arrangements will be announced when known.
