The Scottish Cup starts on Saturday, the draw is below, read the names, many of them are sheer poetry. I am not taking the p... They are genuinely beautiful. My favourite used to be Gala Fairydean, but who wouldn't want to play for Banks O'Dee, Vale of Leithen, Bonnyrigg Rose, Forres Mechanics, Hill of Beath Hawthorn, or Auchinleck Talbot? Given the choice I suppose I'd be turning out for the team I've been following from childhood, Brechin City. Get them back in the league now!

I don't know if the Scottish Cup has been de-valued like its English counterpart, but it is clearly something to be treasured. It's a history, a geography and a culture. It's an identity to be proud of. I just love it. I can't wait for the results.
