Kilwinning Rangers 3-1 Ardrossan Winton Rovers

FINAL (At
Beith Juniors v Kilwinning Rangers

Could Kilwinning Rangers have got an easier draw this year?
They get a bye in the first round. Second Round they are drawn at home to the worst team in the Ayrshire District League. This team can't even field a team for the game so they get a walkover. Semi Final and another home tie against another struggling Ayrshire District League side. No other Super League (Premier) clubs in their half of the draw.

Paul Crankshaw's proposed fixture list

fixtures

Paul Crankshaw (a Troon supporter I believe and also the man responsible for publishing the first book on Scottish Junior Cup results from 1969-89) has also made an attempt at a fixture list.

Scottish Junior Cup final 2004

The SJFA's decision not to move the final to Dundee was rewarded with the lowest crowd in the history of the competition. Only 3030 travelled to Firhill to witness Carnoustie Panmure lift the trophy for the first time by beating the holders, Tayport 4-1 on penalties. 120 minutes failed to produce a goal with Carnoustie missing a penalty.

Jamie Wire (a Pollok supporter) came up with this fixture list for next season (2004-05). The West Region of the SJFA seem incapable of giving results for more than a week in advance (by the end of the season). I'll give them some credit though as they did manage about three weeks in advance earlier on in the season. Jamie posted this on his own website and posted the URL to the Scottish Juniors mailing list.
