Read moreSchool may be out for the summer, but some of the students at Glasgow University are gearing up for the biggest football examination of their lives.
Glasgow University FC will face Selkirk in the first round of the 2012/13 William Hill Scottish Cup on Saturday, and the big prize for whoever graduates into the second round is a potential meeting against Rangers.
Midfielder Marc Hunter, stepping up a grade from GUs U21 side, is already dreaming of a potential clash against the Old Firm giants in the second round.
This is the biggest game Ive had in my career and made all the bigger with the chance that we can get Rangers in the next round! The thought of playing at Ibrox, getting some money for the club, and playing against international players would be amazing!. Its a great incentive to get through Saturdays tie and then hopefully look forward to the draw.
I have a pretty good record in the Scottish Cup, albeit in School but we won it when I was in first year so hopefully that success can continue with a win on Saturday. Id love to grab a goal to take us through and see my name up on Sky Sports Soccer Saturday!
The potential game against Rangers is a huge carrot for GU, but the students coach Gary Rodgers is keen to keep the players focused on Saturdays game.
The players may all be thinking about potentially playing Rangers in the next round but it is the old cliché of taking one game at a time and it is up to us (coaches) to keep the players focused on Saturday as it is going to be a tough match so early in the season. Normally we would have an extra 3 or 4 weeks to prepare for the Scottish Cup ties but we have managed to get a few friendlies in and have played 3 league games so the guys are looking sharp and they all want to play a part on Saturday.
It would be amazing for the players, the University and the coaches if we were able to get through and then get drawn against Rangers but that is a long way off yet, we just need to make sure we play to our best on Saturday and get through what is a tricky tie and I have no doubt Selkirk will be thinking along the same lines that they can potentially face Rangers in the next round so it is going to be tough but well be ready.
The 2010-11 season saw Glasgow University F.C. qualify for the Scottish Cup Second Round for the first time since 1975 after a 1-0 victory at Garscube Sports Complex against Burntisland.
The Cup sponsors, William Hill make the students 3/1 outsiders to win the game, Selkirk are 4/7 with the draw available at 16/5.

New Barcelona signing Cesc Fabregas is rated a 6/4 chance by William Hill to start more league games for Barcelona than the talismanic Xavi (1/2). The bookies are also offering odds of 10/1 for Fabregas to make more league appearances for the Blaugrana than his idol and current Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola (263).
Fabregas has taken the number four, the same number that Guardiola wore at the Camp Nou and it will be interesting to see whether he surpasses the achievements of his once idol and current mentor, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.
The former Arsenal captain is rated a 12/1 chance to score against the Gunners this season and the same price to play again for the North London club before the end of his career.
Arsenal made Cesc into the player that he is today and it is feasible that he could well turn out for the Gunners again before the end of his career, said Crilly.
Hills are also offering odds on Cescs number of league starts for Barcelona this season and the number of goals hell score for the defending champions this season.
With Cesc out of the door at the Emirates, Hills think that a mass exodus may have been sparked and offer 1/2 that Samir Nasri is sold before the end of the transfer window and 15/2 that Robin Van Persie is.
Arsenal have to take on Udinese without Fabregas now and William Hill have priced up where they will exit the Champions League. They are 5/2 to go out to the Italians and 9/4 to exit at the group stages. They are 20/1 to win the competition.
William Hill Fabregas Specials
Number of starts in La Liga this season: 5/2 Under 20, 6/4 20-30, 5/4 Over 30
Fabregas total La Liga goals this season: 3/1 0-5, 13/8 6-10, 9/4 11-15, 5/1 16-20, 9/1 21 or more
Who will start more la Liga games this season? 1/2 Xavi, Fabregas 6/4
Fabregas to make more La Liga appearances for Barcelona than Pep Guardiola (263) 10/1
Arsenal to meet Barcelona at any stage during this years Champions League? 5/2
Fabregas to score a competitive goal against Arsenal this season: Yes 12/1
Fabregas to play a competitive match for Arsenal before the end of his career? Yes 12/1
Pep Guardiola NOT to be in charge of Barcelona at the start of next season: 2/1
Arsenal Specials:
Samir Nasri to have left Arsenal by the end of the transfer window: 1/2 yes; 6/4 no
Robin Van Persie to have left Arsenal by the end of the transfer window: 15/2 yes; 1/20 no
Arsenal Champions League stage of elimination: 5/2 play-offs; 9/4 Group stage; 11/4 last 16; 7/2 quarter final; 8/1 semi final; 18/1 losing finalist; 20/1 winner

Chelsea are now the 5/4 favourites to progress the furthest of any of the three English sides in the competition, while Manchester United are the 11/8 second favourites and Spurs at 14/5. Hills are offering 7/1 that the Champions League Final is contested by two British sides and 6/4 that none of the English sides make it. Fernando Torres failed to score once again and the £50 million man is now 6/1 to fail to score in any of his next five league games.
Hills are offering 7/4 that Real Madrid progress further than Barcelona in the Champions League and 9/2 that the final is contested by the El Classico sides.
Chelsea and Real made it through to the Quarters without having to really break sweat and the pair look like they could well challenge Barcelona at the top of the betting, said Hills spokesman Joe Crilly.

Read moreWHAT DIVISION WILL HAMERS BE IN WHEN THEY KICK OFF IN OLYMPIC STADIUM?
WILLIAM HILL have opened a book on what division West Ham will be playing in when they kick off in the Olympic Stadium for the first time and offer 8/11 that they will be playing Premier League football at that stage but 16/1 that they will be in League One, or lower, by then.
Hills also offer 9/4 that there will be no visible athletics track at the stadium and 11/4 that they have installed retractable seating over the track, when they do start playing league games there.
Hills remain to be convinced that West Ham will be able to sell out the Olympic Stadium for their first competitive game there, ‘Depending on what division they are in and how reluctant their fans are to travel to the new venue we think they could find it very difficult to sell out games and offer 7/4 that they will be able to do so for their first competitive game there’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
**West Ham’s first competitive game in Olympic Stadium to be a sell out?……..7/4 yes; 2/5 no.
**What division will West Ham be playing in when they play their first league match in the Olympic Stadium (bets void if they dont play a match there by 2015)?
Premier 8/11……Championship 11/10…..Lower 16/1
**Will there be a visible athletics track at the stadium when West Ham play their first league match at the Olympic Stadium?
Yes 1/3…..No 9/4
**Will West Ham have a retractable seating system in place by the time they play their first league match at the Olympic Stadium?
Yes 11/4…..No 1/4
**Who will occupy the higher league placing on 1st January 2014?
West Ham 1/20…..Leyton Orient 8/1
**Will Avram Grant still be West Ham manager when they play their first league match at the Olympic Stadium?
