Snakebite Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 3 minutes ago, TheGoon said: Predictably, there's now Crusaders/Rangers fans on Twitter thinking fhey're not complete diddies after beating a youth team and Linfield scraping past a non-league team. What a grim existence. I can't see Linfield or Crusaders getting much further tbh. I think theres a decent chance Albion Rovers would have beaten Linfield.

HibeeJibee Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 Incidentally I happened to check SPFL website and R1 crowds at Kilmarnock "B" v Berwick and Ross County "B" v Forfar have now appeared... They were 255 and 234 respectively. So 2 more sub-300 and reduces comparison R1 average to 293. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Berk Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Its a strong R2: Dundee Utd, QOS, Falkirk, St Murn, Dunfermline, ICT, Linfield, Crusaders, Dumbarton, Rovers, Stranraer, Peterheid, Montrose, Cove Rangers, Elgin, and either TNS or Livi. Pity both FIA teams are out, but good to see the NI teams go through. PS thank Fkkk every one of the youth teams were shown up at teh 1st hurdle. Maybe Doncaster will ditch them for next season.

Skyline Drifter Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 The last 16 then: Montrose Stranraer Inverness Cal Thistle Queen of the South Dunfermline Athletic Crusaders Dumbarton Dundee United Elgin City Cove Rangers Peterhead Raith Rovers Falkirk Linfield St Mirren TNS / Livingston From our point of view 6 potential opponents North of Perth and another 2 or 3 from a different country. If we are away then I would much rather go to Wales or N Ireland than any of the North sides. About the same travel but paid £5k to go! Not roo many attractive away draws actually. Those that arent a long journey are in our division or Raith who were last year and are flying. Stranraer ideal draw for me please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English Wasp Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Last year, 4 colt teams beat SPFL opponents (Hearts, Celtic twice, Motherwell and Partick) and this year only three managed it (Ross County, Hamilton and Motherwell), none of whom went any further.

Big Berk Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Would like one of the "foreign" teams next, home or away. We've had two home games against lower status sides which is unusual for us, we'll probably retrun to the norm and be away to ICT or Dundee Utd next.
