The Case For Them

Adopting Benburb means Scotland Scottish Cup results start mattering to you, a club going since 1885. Not a novelty, a habit.

  • You get a nickname

    Known as The Bens. That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.

  • Easy weekend

    Glasgow Airport (GLA) is about 7km from the ground, and Cardonald railway station is 1km closer still. A home fixture is a genuinely doable two-night trip.

  • The calendar you inherit

    Scotland Scottish Cup is cold-weather football: mud in February, breath visible under the lights, and a fixture list that rewards anyone who sticks it out. Scotland does not do easy neutrals.

  • Deep roots

    Founded in 1885, Benburb were playing organised football before floodlights, substitutes or televised highlights existed. You are adopting 141 years of accumulated grudges.
