The striker was an unused sub when Dunfermline lost the 2004 Scottish Cup The Scottish Football Association Challenge Cup[1], usually known as the Scottish Cup, is the national cup knockout competition in Scottish football. The trophy awarded to the winners has the distinction of being the oldest national trophy in the world. Final to Celtic and part of the Buddies side beaten 3-0 by Rangers in last term's semi.
