Cornwall_Saint Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 First time since 2014/2015 we've made it to the Last 16 in this competition (funnily enough achieved by Tommy Craig after Ross Caldwell's double v Pars). We were then defeated away to Partick in extra time. We haven't made the QF since winning it. Let's end this drought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2becks Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 Miles better today. I hope we've now seen Cammy play wide for the last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemp Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 Much improved performance today. Coulson got us off to a great start, and nearly scored a second identical goal. Glad Stubbs ditched 3 at the back after the disaster at Hampden, when the fullbacks pushed up that gave Stephen McGinn 7 good options to move the ball forwards to. Stewart gave us the option of the high ball at times too, while Cammy Smith was linking up very well again with Kyle and Stephen much like last season. I think that shape looked good, we need new signings in to take the places held by Stewart, Mullen and a few others, but it was good to finally see us play with some pace and purpose. Not sure what has happened to Dumbarton though, they used to be a nightmare to play and thats 5-0, 6-0 in their last two visits to Paisley!

munoz Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 Really good performance today and pleasing to get through to the knockout stages. We bossed the game from start to finish and scored some cracking goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. Paul McGinn was sharp, fast and slung in some great crosses. Jack Baird was excellent and looked to be a bit more comfortable alongside big Cole. Bring on Fundee.

East Lothian Saint Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 Binned my campaign scarf of the Jack Ross era. Today I'll get a new one for the Alan Stubbs era. We're on our way. 7-0 saints and even Mullen scores. How's that for optimism. AS b+w army.[emoji471][emoji471][emoji471] PS we qualify tooOk Mullen to score was pushing the boat out but if he had I would have been spot on. JR never humped Dumbarton 6-0 and JR never Qualified for the next round. AS b+w army Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the format is brilliant, always been keen since it's inception. Smaller (and usually part time) clubs (League One and below) are guaranteed a match away to a bigger side and a home match against a bigger side. Helps boost their coffers while potentially also getting a rare trip to somewhere like Killie/'Well/Saints, which is nice for a part time player. North/south divide stops too much travelling early on for most clubs. Having the group in July clears off a large part of the tournament so there's no concern of a fixture pile up. It looks like it starts early, but most teams in this competition finish in April/May so they still get the month break before pre-season, and a month of pre-season in before the Cup. Lines up well with the early European entrants as well. The penalty shootout idea after 90mins is excellent and it's good to see the 90 min wins rewarded better. The 2nd placed fight is always tense and GD being important means you can't risk holding back from scoring more. It also creates a very different tournament from the Scottish Cup, as the only differences before were seeded draws and less entrants. I think it's the best change in Scottish football in years. I hope they don't change it up anytime soon (might need tweaked if Scotland got back to 5 European entries). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
