The Women's Scottish Cup Third Round draw took place at Hampden Park this afternoon, conducted by Scottish comedian Susie McCabe.

The stand-up comic, who recently supported Kevin Bridges for part of his recent tour, joined host Gordon Duncan to decide the ties for Round Three of the revamped competition.

Four Second Round ties took place over the weekend, with Central Girls, Bonnyrigg Rose, Linlithgow Rose and Queen of the South all coming through their matches to confirm their places in the draw.

They were joined by 10 sides from the Championship and 10 teams from League One, as 24 teams went into the hat to form 12 ties that will take place on Sunday, 4 December. 

McCabe, who is a lifelong football fan believes the fact the semi-finals and finals of the Women's Scottish Cup will be played at Hampden Park is crucial, as she recalled her own memories of the National Stadium.

She said: "I remember when I was 8 or 9, my brother brought me here to watch his school (my future secondary school) compete in a youth final and Hampden still had the wooden seats. I remember being in complete awe of the size of the stadium. 

"That had quite a big influence on me and I think it's more important now than ever to get kids out playing sport - particularly as some are struggling with their mental health after the pandemic. 

"The thought that you can run out at your national stadium and it's achievable, there's no glass ceiling there for girls."

The comedian, who came to stand up late after a successful career in the construction industry, reflected on a whirlwild year for her that has seen her appear regularly on TV and perform at some of the country's biggest venues. 

She added: "I did get engaged this year so that probably has to be the number one highlight! I had a really good Edinburgh Festival this year and I've been given some really good work, with 'Have I Got News For You' and 'Frankie Boyle's New World Order', but probably supporting Kevin Bridges at the Hydro in Glasgow and the P&J Live in Aberdeen were the most amazing experiences. 

"There's not many comics who will do those rooms so for me to have been chosen to do some work there was a tremendous experience. 

"Even coming here today, walking up the stairs to Hampden because you're doing a Scottish Cup Draw, it's ridiculous!"
