East Fife got back to winning ways with a 1-0 win over Edinburgh City in the William Hill Scottish Cup 3rd round replay. East Fife made two changes to the team that drew with Edinburgh in the original tie with Pat Slattery and Jason Kerr replacing Mark Lamont and Gary Naysmith who departed for Queen of the South earlier in the week.
As with the original tie the game took a long time to get going with both teams reduced to long-range efforts in the first 20 minutes. The visitors should have taken the lead on 24 minutes when Smith got to the by-line and whipped in a cross from the left but Robinson could only head over from a couple of yards. Insall then had a shot blocked on the line after Page headed down Robinson’s corner. Against the run of play, Edinburgh were presented with a glorious chance to take the lead when the East Fife defence switched off allowing Allum to latched onto a long ball but his lob over Goodfellow was easily swept up by Kerr.
