This weekend’s Champions Cup and regular league fixtures are all scheduled on astro, but that doesn’t remove the test. Heavy rain and strong winds are forecast.

For players, coaches, and those watching from the sideline, this is one of those Sundays that checks preparation and patience as much as anything else. Layers on, hoods up, phones kept in pockets — a familiar part of Scottish amateur football that everyone involved recognises.

The Cup format stays the same regardless of the weather: one game, one decision, and the next round for those who get through. Alongside that, league fixtures carry importance with the festive break approaching.

Franks Ai view on possible Cup shocks

1️⃣ Pollokshields United vs Clyde Apollo (Champions Cup)

Shock trigger:

👉 Clyde Apollo progressing to the next round

Why:

Pollokshields go into the tie as the higher-placed league side Clyde Apollo sit at the lower end of the table Progression would clearly run against league position

2️⃣ Garrison Athletic vs Barrhead United (League)

Shock trigger:

👉 Garrison Athletic win

Why:

Barrhead United come in from the Premiership, with Garrison competing in Division Three. A Garrison win would count as a proper GDSFC Cup shock.

3️⃣ Dennistoun Saints vs Easterhouse FA 

Shock trigger:

👉 Dennistoun Saints win or draw

Why:

Easterhouse FA are competing a level above Dennistoun Saints. Dennistoun going through would be one of today’s clear Cup shocks.

4️⃣ Blantyre United vs Drumchapel United (League)

Shock trigger:

👉 Blantyre United win

Why:

Blantyre United come into the game in better shape, while Drumchapel United will see this as a chance to kick-start their season. A Drumchapel win would count as a notable Cup shock and one to look out for.

5️⃣ Vale AFC vs Charleston Thistle (League)

Shock trigger:

👉 Vale AFC win

Why:

Charleston Thistle come into the weekend a division above Vale AFC. A Vale victory would be a notable result for a side enjoying a strong run, and one to look out for.

Frank Sideline — Final Word
Weather aside, it’s set up as a full day of GDSFC Scottish amateur football, spread across grounds and kick-off times. I’m looking forward to getting out, seeing how it unfolds, and taking it in from the sideline.
