Andriy_Parmolenko Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Stinking draw for a stinking competition. It's boring enough being drawn against a team in the same league, did it have to be the team we literally just played? At the same venue? Very grim. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I think the last time we shared a division we drew each other in two cups (Premier Sports Cup and Challenge Cup)? Then we played each other twice more in the playoffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

par-adise Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Pass. Play the young lads, hopefully get punted out, and move on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would imagine we’ll plan to get KRH involved in the game. I’d be hoping we play Little, Fenton, Sutherland etc though. Assuming we get a couple more signings, we may have a few other players needing minutes for fitness, or who aren’t starting 11 players by that time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Well if David Wotherspoon does sign he won't be match fit. Wonder if the ultimatum to DW was true that we wanted a decision this week. If so we might hear before weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Was expecting Morton away or something equally as shite. Usually get shite draws that we invariably get beat in. Wonder if they’ll attempt to skin us £25 again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I have this weird recollection of watching our previous Challenge cup game in a boozer in Dundee. Maybe @DA Baracus can clear that up. Pretty sure that season we didnt beat them a single time. wont happen this time round, we're far better and I'd say they're nowhere near as good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We watched it in Halleys. You stayed at mine the night before for something (ICW maybe?). We went up to The Ambassador (previously The Centenary Bar) as heard they were showing it, but they were not! We later fell asleep on the couch with soup and beer like a couple of old fannies. Edited August 17, 2023 by DA Baracus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heaton Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 A needless distraction on our way to winning the league. Rest the bulk of the first team. boycott the robbing barstewards and move on 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I wonder if Connor Smith might be a realistic option? Really impressed me in the pre-season game v Hearts. I see Hamilton’s chairman has had a meltdown because his agent said he won’t play in League 1*, which opens the door for championship clubs. I’d be trying to get him in. If he’d be interested and we can get a loan deal sorted, we can take Wotherspoon’s contract off the table, cause he’s taken too long. *he also ranted about how Hamilton have plenty of Premiership calibre players like Jackson Longridge, Kevin O’Hara and Kyle MacDonald. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a rumour from one of the red tops in the last 10 days that us, Airdrie and Accies were in for him. I think I said at the time, you would like to think we'd be favourites. Bigger club, be able to offer more wages, I think the club has a decent relationship with Hearts, Smith is also a local(ish) boy. I couldn't see him dropping into L1 even though he played for Accies last season. Hearts wanted him around the first team this season, if they've changed their mind and want him loaned out, they'll want him playing at the highest level possible. Can I see any Premiership teams taking a punt? No. So likely it'll be ourselves, Airdrie and anyone else in the division who is keen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubbychops Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) Thinking we should make a move for Connor Smith and bump Wotherspoon but maybe the manager feels we need the experience. Our team is very young. A bit too young. We have given Wotherspoon some amount of time to make his mind up. Apparently still training with us too? There must be more to this if we have allowed this to drag on so long. Edited August 17, 2023 by Chubbychops 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
