Have I missed something?

Wrexham were today playing St Mirren u21 in the Scottish Challenge Cup QF :shock:

Have the Welsh FA been pulling strings again?

(Yes I know they were playing in Wales not Scotland :lol: )

There were some English clubs playing in it too. I remember my local club Solihull were in the early rounds. Not a clue how they went on tbh.

Edit: Just looked they play at home v Rangers u21 in the 1/4final on 29th October!

Scottish Challenge Cup similar to the LDV Johnston Paints or whatever it is called now? 1017 St Mirren fans travelled today to support their U21’s I would say that is a tremendous travelling support at any level

Wrexham are representing England as a National League club alongside Solihull and 2 Welsh Premier clubs and 2 Irish Premier clubs. Connahs Quay got to the final last year.

Didn’t realise any English team was involved.....

Thought they were going to call it the small bloke syndrome trophy in honour of the nations involved....

I think they are trying to raise the standard of football played up there ;)

Anyone watching the mighty Scottish football team destroy San Marino?

Just saw a guy in a mask lining up....I know it’s embarrassing playing for Scotland but then I realised it was a San Marino player so it is possible that some are even embarrassed playing Scotland....

Scotland 1 up after 10 minutes.

What odds can I get on the rest of the San Marino team wearing masks in the second half....

Surely they can't all be ashamed of being at Hampden Park (although it looks like the Scottish football fans that are missing are ashamed of being seen there :D)
