[DeHaviLand]

Now for the long trek north. At least it will have been worth it.

[Venture]

Well worth the long trip. What an excellent result for the Club. Congratulations boys.:D

[kerzbabezx]

Good to see them get a result after the long trek:lol::lol::lol:

[ploo251]

The next home game is against Keith on Saturday 4th October. Kick off at 3 p.m. You can get all the season fixtures via the official Wick Academy website. I have attached a link to it below.

it was some trip home, i was down and it was 3 going on about 10

[Amy-Winehouse]

Well done Academy, I passed shoeshine about 3.30am & they were delighted with the result as was my husband. He said they have Edinburgh City in the next round !! That seems a hard one but hopefully they win again & bring some much needed glamour to the Harmsworth.
How good would it be to get into the 3rd round with the big boys?:D Celtic at home would be fantastic

[DonsFanRA04]

the spl teams enter in the 4th round so 2 more rounds to go through for that to happen

[Amy-Winehouse]

Would you care if the Academy were hosts to one of the top 5 in Scotland? Celtic Hearts Hibs Kilmarnock or Rangers would be great for the town & a wee bit of excitement for everyone connected with the club

[DonsFanRA04]

well you did miss out aberdeen, dundee utd ect in your top 5 clubs - i wouldnt even mind a div 3 side come up here but really its not going to be easy to go through edinburgh city - considering they did beat nairn in the 1st round 2-0 to come up against academy. so wont be getting any hopes up of that happening just yet..

[JanDeGroot]

i dare say aberdeen are a bigger club than any other club in scotland a[art from the OF, plus they have a big caithness fanbase so they would be a brilliant draw, wont happen as academy wont get past edinburgh city who are a strong side :~(

[Brizer2k7]

I am sure Edinburgh City play at The Commonwealth stadium, Meadowbank just along the road from me. Former home on Meadowbank Thistle, now known as Livingston FC.

see this map - http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=commonwealth+stadium&sll=55.955591,-3.156617&sspn=0.008373,0.019226&ie=UTF8&ll=55.955988,-3.156617&spn=0.008661,0.019226&z=16&iwloc=A

Their website is - http://www.edinburghcityfc.com/

edinburgh city were fortunate to beat nairn at the weekend and from what i've been told they are not that great a team and that academy have a good chance if they play to their best

Great write up in todays sun.

[AfternoonDelight]

One of the Academy boys has played Edinburgh City when he played for Edinburgh Uni and he says they are not a bad side but they are beatable. Academy can be unpredictable though so they need to screw the nut and make sure they get a result...

[Amy-Winehouse]

I missed abahdeen out on purpose;) after all in the 80`s they were the best team in Europe but rarely sold out all their games, Hearts & Hibs are better supported , Im afraid . I forgot about Dundee but then doesnt that say it all?

Im allowed to dream about Academy doing well in the cup surely?:confused

[JanDeGroot]

exactly, they were once europe best team. only celtic and aberdeen from scotland can say that

[speedo215]

would just like to wish wick academy lukc tomorrow, c'mon academy do us proud

[Amy-Winehouse]

Good Luck in Edinburgh Academy, a draw would be brilliant

[Amy-Winehouse]

0-0 at half time going by Sky sports

I just flicked it on there & it was still 0-0 so I hope they hold out for a replay

[embow]

Excellent result 0-0. Replay next weekend in Wick?

[Brizer2k7]

Wick Academy drew 0-0 in Edinburgh. I wonder what state they will all be in by the time the bus gets back (on Sunday morning no doubt) !!! :lol:

wick academy grab draw in edinburgh but in reality should have won the won the game, it was played in terrible conditions with driving wind and rain, we played some really good football playing into the wind in the 2nd half and this was when we created our best chances, our goalkeeper had only one save to make

[footie chick]

Just saw on Sky Sports News that Wick are getting beat 3-1 :(

[footie chick]

Wick 1 Edinburgh 4 :~(
