optimistic Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 I remember hating Jenkins, I remember him after a 2-1 defeat, mocking the sons fans that we were going down, can't remember if that was before or after that other diving b*****d, David Graham, diving twice in the same season against us, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERSOUTH Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 He came on in 61 minutes but Stranraer were already 2-0 down.Yes he did and when he did he played well always found a pass and looked composed on the ball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersons Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 That b*****d Jenkins volleyed the ball into the crowd and it whacked me after play was stopped. He was no doubt aiming for sons r us who had called him Allan Jennings for the whole game!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C'mon_the_Sons Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 He came on in 61 minutes but Stranraer were already 2-0 down. So he did; misread the BBC website!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedrick1 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Saw a comment about this earlier.amazing the number of team in the cup over weekend who had a former sons player in their ranks. Including nish I reckon about 14 or 15. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyline Drifter Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Saw a comment about this earlier.amazing the number of team in the cup over weekend who had a former sons player in their ranks. Including nish I reckon about 14 or 15.On a similar note I reckoned that 10 of the other 13 ties had at least one ex Queens player involved (including unused subs). Some of them had several. And of the three that didnt two were because Nicky Clark and Dan Carmichael werent on the bench for Rangers and Hibs. The only game where we have no ex player at either club was St Mirren v Partick and that only because Craig Reid's loan at St Mirren ended last week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonsanorak Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Something else to consider; a draw away to a big team could bring in a lot of money to both clubs through the splitting of gate money. Enough perhaps to change transfer targets or budgets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleslie99 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Now we are through the tie against queens where, let's be honest, if we had lost we wouldn't have been too fussed. Who do we all fancy in next round? A winnable tie such as Annan, ek/lthv etc or a potential money spinner away to Celtic? Personally I'd prefer the former and have a go at a run and a semi appearance at hampden in a couple games time. Without being cynical I can see us with an uninspiring draw against Morton or Hibs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons FC Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 It's a tough question - a money spinner or advancing? I think we just have to wait and see and hope for the best either way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Parr Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 It's a tough question - a money spinner or advancing? I think we just have to wait and see and hope for the best either way. There's no joy in a last-16 Parkhead pummeling. Hold off on the big guns till the quarters would be my view. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Linlithgow Rose away (if they get through) would be wonderful. Failing that Killie away would be a new ground to tick off the list. Basically anywhere but an OF tie, or someone from the Championship. Absolutely odds on we get Rangers away 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 My preference is a winnable home tie. Failing that, away to Rangers or Celtic would be my choice. If we're going to go out we may as well do it whilst making a few bob. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet Pete Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 On the subject of progression versus income generated, I always prefer a shot at going further to a humping by a big team in exchange for a few measly sheckels. That's the point of the cup after all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sons Fan Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I would prefer a winnable tie rather than s money spinner. Annan or Linlithgow would be good. Nice to have a change. BUT odds on we'll get the usual OF or Morton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boghead ranter Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Go for winnable - an away tie at Celtic wouldn't be as big a money-spinner as you might think. The stadium would be half-empty at best if we were the opposition, with high costs* deducted by Celtic before splitting the gate. *exaggerated costs at that, no doubt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The deduction for "costs" is notional and taken as a percentage of income. The actual costs paid are completely irrelevant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
