Charging 13 quid is a bit cheeky. Mark Weir our man of the match for preventing the scoreline being embarassing. I do understand the rationale and think it's a poor show that we couldn't move the game. The league Cup group stage format is stacked against lower league teams and our reward for making it through is an early season fixture pile up. My biggest disappointment was not seeing any if the youngsters looking like knocking on the first team door any time soon. I was just delighted to see one of my son's best friends make his 1st team debut last night. Weak XI I know, but still. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Lodge Park looking in immense condition, out many SPFL pitches to shame. Even though Peterhead have rested a few players it's still a strong starting XI and fancy them to go through. Young Dons will give them a decent test. Interested to see Findlay Marshall as I've heard he's a baller. We were supposedly looking to take him on loan but given Hartley has a team full of CM's it's likely not an option now. I see they still have the portable floodlight in the corner. Adds a new dimension to night games where you can hardly see the bottom goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a hard test for them last night but a good lesson on what is required to make it as a footballer in the men's game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another result to embolden the case of b teams in the Pyramid What does it do for the case that all but three have been papped out in the early rounds? One of the cases for B teams was also that it would bring extra crowds as well, yet just 269 at the Stenny game last night. Fans don’t want these sides in the Challenge Cup, never mind an important competition. They add nothing to our game. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhumper Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Those Dumbarton fans were the biggest collection of simpletons I've ever seen in my life at a game. Proper inbred oddballs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Central Belt Caley Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I genuinely thought the Irish and Welsh teams involvement had been punted, must have imagined that Arbroaths a decent away day but I’ll probably save the pennies for the league game a few weeks later instead 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee B made a decent fist of it (steady Kenneth) but we seem to be half decent at pens these days.. Greenied for "kicks from the penalty mark". Plus good to pap out as many of the B teams as possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were alright, we dropped a few first team players for it if I remember correctly. They're part time so started to tire a bit but I'd have compared them to a lower end Championship side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
