Quick Facts Full name, Nickname(s) ...

Culter made history, along with Linlithgow Rose and Pollok by becoming the first Junior football teams to enter the first round proper of the Scottish Cup for the 2007–08 competition. This was due to the SFA allowing up to four Junior teams to enter, if those teams had won one of the three Super Leagues or the Scottish Junior Cup.[1] They have played in the Cup on five occasions, in 2007–08, 2011–12, 2013–14, 2014–15 and 2023–24, reaching the third round on the first three occasions.

The team have been managed since November 2018 by Lee Youngson.[2]

Scottish Cup

Culter won their very first Scottish Cup tie at Crombie Park on Saturday 29 September 2007. They beat Hawick Royal Albert of the East of Scotland Football League, 7–0 in the First Round. They were drawn in a tough second round tie with Vale of Leithen at home, goals from Gordon Farmer and a goal four minutes from time by Graham Cadger was enough to see them progress through to the third round with a 2–1 scoreline. They were then drawn to face Huntly in the third round on 24 November, where their campaign ended in a 3–1 defeat.[3]

In the 2011–12 season, Culter again advanced to the third round—despite losing to Spartans in the second round—as Spartans were expelled from the competition for fielding an ineligible player.[4] They held Partick Thistle to a draw at home before being defeated 4–0 in the replay at Firhill.[5][6]

In the 2013–14 season, they reached the third round yet again, beating Newton Stewart, of the South of Scotland Football League, 6–0 in the second round.[7] In the third round, they held Berwick Rangers at home, but lost the replay 3–1.[8] In the following season, 2014–15, they qualified yet again, but were beaten 7–1 in the second round by Bo'ness United of the SJFA East Region Super League.[9]
