Tuesday 22 April 2008 — Rainbow International Superleague East End 0 v Culter 0 (at New Advocates Park, Aberdeen) Rintoul was the first to try his luck with a 25 yarder that whizzed over the bar. Knox then brilliantly palmed away a Wyness free kick. Shand should have done better than head the ball weakly into Cameron’s arms before Knox could only watch as Elliot’s free kick fror the edge of the box skimmed by the post. On the half hour mark a mix up in the Culter defence left Wyness in the clear but again he shot wide. Walker then combined with Wyness but his close range shot was well blocked by the legs of Knox. Half Time: 0 — 0. Culter got off to the worst possible start in the second half when Pressley upended Spalding in the box in the 48 minute but to their relief Paul Yeats shot past the post from the penalty spot. This spurred on the away team with Shand and Rattray heading over from close range. Culter were now in total control of the game with Sim, Adam and then Craik all having efforts that failed to find the targel In 86 minutes Spalding received his marching orders for a second yellow before Ord headed agonising over the bar in the last minutc There was still time for Adam Wilson to head for an early shower in injury time as he also was sent off for a second yellow. East End: Cameron, Keith, Wilson, McArthur, Elliott, Yeats, Booth, Carroll, Wyness, Spalding, Walker. Subs: Kirkwood, Dunn, Strachan, Harris, Wrig Culter: Knox, Wilson, Campbell, Pressley, Rattray, Adam, Sim, Mountford, Shand, Craik, Rintoul. Substitutes: Brown, Cooper, McBain, Ord, Craib.

Thursday 24 April 2008 — Rainbow International Superleaque Culter 7 v Parkvale 2 (at Crombie Park, Culter)
Culter won all three points witha comfortable win against relegated Parkvale. Michael ORD was given his first start and with only 5 minutes gone was left unmarked inthe penalty box to head home Rintoul’s free kick. Bruce SMITH marked his return to the team by poking home Brown’s low cross in 16 minutes before McBain beat the offside trap to square the ball to Martin SI-lAND to tap in on 23 minutes. Cooper hit the post with a shot on the turn before Parkvale got one back in the 43rd minute, Knox missed McCausland’s cross and the ball broke to Ally McLEOD to stroke the ball into the net from 6 yards. Half Time: 3 — 1.
Mountford hit the bar with a crashing shot then Ord and McBain had shots saved by Butler, but he was helpless in the 59th minute. Ord flicked on a corner and Andy CAMPBELL volleyed home from the back post. In the 70th minute George McBAIN produced a clever lob from the edge of the box that just crept in under the crossbar and again George McBAIN was on the end of a Mountlord pass to stroke home from 6 yards in the 74th minute. Fiddes fouled McBain inside box and Andy CAMPBELL stepped up to send the ‘keeper the wrong way from the penalty spot in 79 minutes. Parkvale scored a consolation goal in the 86th minute, Jim RIDDOCH driving the ball past Knox from the 20 yards.

Saturday 26 April 2008 — Norsco Regional Cup 3 Round (Quarter Final) Culter 2 v Dyce 4 (at Crombie Park, Culter)
The Deesiders had the first decent effort on goal with Craik’s effort from inside the box going wide. McBain then had a gut busting rur which ended with Mountford miskicking his cross to safety. Rattray robbed McHattie of a shot at goal with a well-timed tackle before Buckley saved at the feet of Ord for the first real save of the game. Dyce took the lead in 29 minutes with a hopeful punt being picke up by Kevin NEISH in the box and he turned the home defence before placing the ball beyond Knox. Culter responded with Ord firing the ball inches wide but Dyce increased their lead in the 37th minute. Milne played the ball wide to Stuart REID and his mistimed cross went high and over the outstretched arms of the home ‘keeper. Half Time: 0— 2.
Culter were right back in the game when Brown’s surging run into the box was ended by Jeffery’s mistimed tackle in the box in the 52 minute and the referee pointed straight to the penalty spot. Andy CAMPBELL, for the second time in two matches, sent the ‘keeper the wrong way. Knox did well to palm away Reid’s decent effort and Knox was then glad to see McHattie’s header from the resultant corner fly over. The home team went further behind in the 62 minute when the home defence failed to dear their lines and Reid squared the ball to Kevin NEISH for a simple tap in. Shand’s header from Rintoul’s cross was well saved by Buckley but in the 73rd minute Culter again pulled a goal back. Buckley spilled Wilson’s long range effort into the path of the inrushing Martin SHAND who blasted the ball home from close range. Brown was unlucky to see his lob nestle on top of the net before Wilson again tried his luck from way out but this time the away ‘keeper gratefully held on to the ball. With Culter pushing for an equaliser Greg DAVIDSON ran onto a though ball from Neish and chipped Knox from the edge of the box in injury time to knock Culter out of all cup competitions this season.
