Shotts boss John McKeown has accused cup opponents Dundonald Bluebell of being ‘cute’ and forcing them to play their tie tonight after refusing to hold the clash on Gartcairn’s artificial surface.
When it became obvious that Hannah Park was going to be unavailable for Saturday’s South Challenge Cup third round tie, and Dundonald’s park was out of use, Shotts hired MTC Park in Airdrie, thinking it was the perfect solution.
However, Bluebell refused to play the tie because it isn’t on a grass surface, like the tie would originally have been.
