As what used to happen when you were knocked out of the Stirlingshire cup and you still had the part of the season left, those teams who were knocked out in the 1st round of the stirlingshire cup will be autmatically entered into the consolation cup. I,m probably wrong but strumps can correct me.
Strumps - Did Shire ever win the consolation cup?
this comp is FREE as it's only a bit fun and to keep everybodies interest going for a wee while longer over the festive period

This is just before bed time but there was for a while a Scottish Consolation Cup and also a Stirlingshire Consolation Cup (just for the Stirlingshire teams that have been knocked out of the Scottish Cup). Given at the time Shire were in the habit of winning 1st round Scottish Cup games then it was not one of the Cups were played in many times.
I'm waffling. Good question Mr Bob. Never though of if before. To be honest I've never read about a Stirlingshire Consolation Cup Final so maybe we never played in one. Ok, I with put it to my list of things to look into. Im sure that there was such a Cup in the 1900's and then again in the 1930's or early 1950s (very briefly - but the 50's are your domain wellibob so I'll leave that one to you maybe)
