Rovers have not been invited into what will be known as the Premier Sports Cup by the SPFL this year. We therefore miss out on around £30k sponsorship plus gate receipts but do at least get starting the season at the same time as most of our LL opponents (either team 42 or EK will be in the LL and competing on the cup).

The SPFL has today issued invitations to three clubs to take part in next season’s Premier Sports Cup.
With five SPFL clubs again taking part in UEFA competitions next season, the group stage draw for the competition will involve the remaining 37 SPFL clubs from season 2023/24 and three further clubs invited to join the tournament.
The SPFL has today invited Highland League winners Buckie Thistle, Highland League runners-up Brechin City, and Lowland League winners East Kilbride to join next season’s competition.
This follows last season's competition, when the champions of the Lowland League and Highland League, plus one additional Lowland League club, were invited to participate.
Once confirmed, the clubs will be added to the draw for the group stage of next year’s competition, which will take place on Wednesday 29 May at 1.00pm.
