Radford Posted July 30, 2017 Share Posted July 30, 2017 It's actually the third weekend in August that we play Thistle at home for the fourth time since February, not that it makes it any better. Horrible draw. The United and Dundee draw highlights two things, even though it's the best tie in the round, it's ridiculous they can be drawn together again and also, what was the point of winning the penalties and getting the seeding? Hardly much of a reward for Ayr either. The seeds should get home advantage when you've played for it via four group matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The alternative is the top seeds get guaranteed home tie. Don't know how some people would feel giving the BIG TEAMS even more advantages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm guessing Killie will get either Celtic at Parkhead or Rangers at Ibrox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seed the group winners and the best runners up and give them home ties. The top 4 have gained an advantage by not playing in the group stages, so they should be unseeded.
