Due tomorrow, quarter to ten at night or later. (After the match: E. Kilbride v Falkirk.) 32 teams in:
D A F C
Celtic
Rangers
Hearts
Kilmarnock
St Mirren
Dundee
Aberdeen
Hibernian
Motherwell
St Johnstone
Ross County
Dundee United
Dumbarton
Queen`s Park
Fraserburgh
Clydebank
Broxburn Athletic
Hamilton Academical
Montrose
Livingston
Forfar
Cove Rangers
Brechin City
Ayr United
Raith Rovers
Elgin City
Queen of the South
Stenhousemuir
Musselburgh
East Kilbride or Falkirk
Airdrie
I`d like Musselburgh at EEP. And Celtic when we are as far into the competition as we are able to go, so as to make the tie more important and add bums on seats.

If its Celtic, you want them away. Killing everyone in their path so might as well take 45000 at Parkhead and get some decent gate money

Right enough, we`re only 11,000+ capacity, not the 24,000 or so back in my youth!
I`ll stick my neck out here though and say, for the sake o` Pars supporters I`d prefer it at EEP. Club would make a few grand less but our supporters deserve a day in the sun (if that`s the right saying.) I mean big EEP atmosphere and excitement of build up and going to the match.

With a bit o` luck we could get likes o` Elgin at home in fourth round. then get winner of Musselburgh v Broxburn in fifth round, then Celtic in quarters. Where there`s a miracle there`s a way!

Playing Celtic holds zero excitement for me, if it happens it`s the cash that`s good and that`s far better away from home.
Quite why we`d enjoy having those scum or their sister club at EEP I`ve no idea, keep them away to ****, it`s the only good thing about us being **** is not having to put up with them

For the sake of progression, obviously if we can draw a non league club that would be ideal.
Just please don`t get a rubbish championship tie which we seem to get in the cup every year, our league system is already bad enough having to play every team four times without needing to play them again

It might be better to draw a team we can definitely get past in the forthcoming round. Then draw a bigger tie in the next again round.
I`d hate the thought of an imminent money spinning tie becoming a wrangling point in our takeover.

Do we have any suspensions for this tie? Don`t want a repeat of the last time we played Stenny in the cup.

That`s about as good a draw as we could have hoped for.
No more than 9 Premiership teams will be in the last 16, so even a decent chance of further progress, although Stenny won`t be a pushover.

He has, he did a good job at East Fife and Edinburgh City previously. Always surprises me that he is never linked to Full Time jobs, especially the League 1 jobs that have come up over the years

He got a FT opportunity at QoS and was very poor, probably harshly sacked by Edinburgh city but sacked he was. Keeps this up with stenny and he might start getting mentioned again, but there`s a reason he stopped being considered for a bit.

The Germans clearly want out soonest - so any such scenario will have little or no influence on their exit strategy.

It is a factor though. We have struggled against pretty much every lower league team we have played this year. Lucky we are at home though maybe we have a chance of Chris Kane playing.

We beat East Fife, Kelty and Alloa in our last 3 cup games, all fairly comfortably in the end. All 3 games reminded me of our League 1 season. Not pretty too watch but effective.

Why does everyone think Chris Kane is the answer to our problems? He had hardly scored, even less than Lewis McCann (I guess). I think if McCann played through the centre we might get on better tbh. (Wait for the critics now)!!

He causes defenders problems and forces errors. He may not be the answer to our problems but I feel we play better with him in the team. I do agree though Mcsnn through the middle is a good shout. To be fair anything other than the usual set up is a good shout.
One of the best draws we could have hoped for and although an upset is always on option I’m confident we get through quite comfortably.
