I don't think Maresca would have had any managerial experience at that time though? 

I have no idea why he's potentially getting the Chelsea job. Leicester should have horsed the championship but made hard work of it so not sure why he's getting one of the biggest jobs in the country. Think they are looking at how Artea has done and clubs are now looking for Poundland Pep's.

He was appointed Parma manager 2 months after Glass was appointed. Obviously had enough experience to take on a job like that.

Totally agree though, he’s made heavy weather of the Championship, Leicester should have romped it.

As much as Leicester did have a wobble, their points tally this season (97) would’ve been enough to have seen them crowned champions in 7 of the last 9 English Championship seasons. They would’ve achieved automatic promotion in all 9 of those.

Hope you guys get some good luck with the draw, some cracking teams in there.

 

 

What's the Challenge Cup like? I know your mob tried to win it a few times but Aberdeen has never been invited?

From the challenge cup to regularly making the latter stages of European competitions, anyway best of luck with the draw tomorrow.

Remember that time the new team with multiple times more  money than the rest of their league combined failed to get promoted from the fuckin championship? 
We do.

Cheers. I'm hoping for away matches between us and two teams whose grounds I haven't visited before. There are 13 possibilities, mostly from Pots 4 and 5.

Hope this little episode has made you feel better about ‘Whalsh’ cheating you out the cup…

A rare positive attitude from an Aberdonian,  that deserves a like.

What's not to like about being in the League Cup groups every now and again? It keeps us grounded.

A really shite draw from a geographical perspective.

The closest team is in North Lanarkshire, the other away game Dumfries. 
FFS 

EK (a). 
Dumbarton (h). 
QoTS (a). 
Airdrie (h)

East Kilbride is terrible, wonder if it will get moved to a better stadium?

Be hoping for at least six points

We only have two away matches. As far as I'm aware no decisions made yet which  two will be away. Never been to Queen Of The South or East Kilbride, and haven't been to the "new" Airdrie or Dumbarton grounds.

I have been to them all. EK by far the worst of the 4 and the capacity is tiny.

Dumfries could be a decent day out albeit it’s a long journey from the NE. 
An uninspiring draw although always a fair chance of that. 
Seen it mentioned a couple of times that seed 1 is home to seed 2 and 4 and away to 3 and 5. Not certain if this is true though.

It is true. 

EK away. 
Dumbarton home. 
QoTS away. 
Airdrie home

They played St Mirren there.

We’re basically playing in a Country Park on an atrocious pitch (I’ve played on it, it’s awful).

So Queen of the south then East Kilbride away followed by Airdrie and Dumbarton at home with the Queens and Airdrie games televised.

Could guarantee if it was the BBC the East Kilbride game would be on so they could mention Darvel another 1000 times.
