W6er Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 With the draw being done two weeks today, who would you want? Obviously until the third round ties are played it's uncertain who will be in the hat, however I would like the following away from home (ranked in order of preference): 1. Greenock Morton 2. Partick Thistle 3. Queen's Park 4. Airdrieonians 5. Albion Rovers 6. Clyde 7. Stirling Albion 8. Falkirk Away games are more fun & we make more noise. Plus we get half the gate money. 🙂 For obvious reasons I would be looking to avoid any Premiership side, Inverness CT or Peterhead. @faraway saint will presumably be hoping we're drawn away to Arbroath. I'm guessing @shull would fancy some obscure club like Gala Fairydean Rovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been to a few over the decades for the Scottish Cup where the atmosphere has been fantastic. Fir Park, Cappielow, Somerset Park and the old Broomfield where we won 5-0 in the early 1980's. Great times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanleySaint Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 My son lives in Inverness now so for selfish reasons that would be good for me but for football reasons someone like Morton or Stirling would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great times. I forgot Ayr, actually! That's a good shout, Shull. I wouldn't fancy Kilmarnock, as they're playing well and full of confidence and it'd essentially be like playing a Premiership side. Plus we have played them so many times during the last few seasons, so there would be no novelty aspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be amazing except for the fact the away end at Cappielow doesn't have a roof. Can you imagine a wet, cold January day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if we're going to win it we need to beat these kind of clubs, but personally I fancy an away day at a local ground we don't usually visit. Worst of all is a tough tie to a less prestigious Premiership side. Imagine drawing Livingstone or Ross County...and then going out after an insipid performance, like the recent one against Dundee.

I thought it would be something like that, Shull. With a ground capacity of 876, according to Wikipedia, I imagine we'd play the game at Pittodrie or Cove Rangers' stadium, or else we'd be limited to 250 tickets. For me it's Ayr away. What's the betting we draw Morton/ICT away and end up having to go to Inverness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
