League cup seeding pots We don't definitely know how fixtures will work yet but I assume we're likely to be home to Pot 1, away to Pot 2. As such then I'm not sure it makes that much odds what Pot 1 team. Killie or Motherwell would likely bring biggest support here. If we were away then those two are also easiest to get to. Motherwell are probably the stronger side though so I'll take Kilmarnock. Appreciate we will share a division with them but Accies look obviously the weakest side in Pot 3 so I'd take them. Suspect Dumbarton or Clyde will be weakest in Pot 4 and both easy to get to if we're away midweek. Selfishly I want Bonnyrigg in Pot 5 as we've never played them. Ideally away as I've never been there and will complete the SPFL set again if we're there. I don't want Stenny or the possibility of travel to Elgin again. Anyone else would be fine.

I wonder now there are clear lines on the park if it'll stop the dafties in our support from screaming at the linesman when he gets a clear offside decision correct. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those lines won't be there once the crumb is added and brushed in. You're seeing the actual seams where they've joined rolls at the moment.

19QOS19 Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Group G Motherwell, Queens Park, East Fife, Elgin City The top sides could have been worse. Played Motherwell, QP and Elgin fairly recently in cups so it's slightly meh but if our recruitment is right we have a wee chance of second spot I think. Hope we're at home to Elgin this time as that's pretty shite to be away again but I think it'll be away again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope we're at home to Elgin this time as that's pretty shite to be away again but I think it'll be away again? They haven't confirmed this season's fixture formula yet but if it follows last season's pattern we'll be home to Motherwell and East Fife and away to Queen's Park and Elgin. Clearly Elgin's far from ideal for an away game. Costly for the club and inconvenient for the fans. Queen's Park will also be problematic I'd guess. They've announced this morning they are moving to Hampden from September but will use Lesser Hampden until then. Presumably that puts us at Lesser with a capacity of something like 700 - 800 I think. It's a league cup group game so unlikely to be a major draw but it might be the first open door game at the new Lesser Hampden so likely to have big groundhopper demand. It will also be Queen's Park's first home game in about 2 years so could have a big demand from their fans. I'd imagine we might take a couple of hundred if it's a Saturday. Might be all ticket. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was rather hoping that the game with East Fife would be away and that QP were still playing at Larbert as both a relatively easy journey for me. C’est La vie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fae_the_'briggs Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Apart from Motherwell, none of the teams I really wanted tbh. Will Queens Park push on from last season or fall away? As 19QOS19 says, decent chance of 2nd in the group if Bartley recruits decently. Still a feel of pre-season preparation about these games though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have we not asked to get our first few games away just in case the Pamly pitch is not ready . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
