    With Dave away for a while with work commitments, Grant is joined by Gary Keith for this week's podcast. There was plenty for the guys to get their teeth into this week as they rounded up the action from the Grill League Cup Last 16 ties and react to the quarter final draw. Impressive wins for Maud, Hall Russell United and Lossiemouth United on Tuesday night were followed up by a sensational penalty shootout win for Westdyke CC Juniors over Dyce. Colony Park and Culter also joined the midweek winners into the last 8.

In the Premier League, Dyce missed the chance to go top of the Premier League as Lossiemouth United won 2-0 at Phoenix Park. Elsewhere, Maud made it three away wins in a week, Buchanhaven Hearts hit Fraserburgh United for five and Longside defeated Hall Russell 4-1 at Denmore Park. It was also a great weekend for Newmachar United and Deveronside too as they claimed valuable draws against Bridge of Don Thistle and Stonehaven respectively. Meanwhile, Gary and Grant were at one of the games of the season so far as Aberdeen East End recovered twice from behind to claim a 3-3 draw with Rothie Rovers. This was AEE's first home league game back at New Advocates Park. Grant spoke to Luke Fawcett of East End and Brodie Carr of Rothie Rovers post match. There's medallists of the week, a host of news to catchup on and a look ahead to next week's games.
