SCOTTISH CUP 4th Round
Venue: PRESTONFIELD
LINLITHGOW ROSE 0 RAITH ROVERS 2
Scorers: Gullan(2)
A day after the biggest Scottish Cup upset (Darvel beating Aberdeen) I went through to Linlithgow to visit a new ground however Raith Rovers show no signs of panic and comfortably advance to the next round of the cup.
Prestonfield is a tidy little ground and there are 2,000 fans in attendance. The match will be best remembered for the worse collective officiating since the 2015 Scottish Cup semi final. The ref and his standside linesman missed two penalties and wrongly called a goal from Raith at the start of the second half as offside when the home sides centre half clearly played the ball straight into the path of the Raith striker.
