1938–39 Scottish Cup
The 1938–39 Scottish Cup was the 61st staging of Scotland's most prestigious football knockout competition. This was the last edition to be played until 1946-47, as World War II forced all major football competitions in the country to be postponed. The Cup was won for the first time by Clyde, who defeated Motherwell in the final.
