A trip to Hampden for City against old pals QP- yeah! 

Here, what do you mean there's a bunch of squatters occupying the place at the moment... 

Oh well, Lesser is almost a home from home

I see dates have been confirmed for the third round ties with rangers b vs Fraserburgh already postponed due to international call ups.

Brave of Steve Clark to go to the highland league for fresh blood!

Not quite sure when they’ll be able to fit that in if Fraserburgh’s players struggle to get time off work to travel down to Cappielow for a midweek game, so it has to be called off.

That’s how it works, isn’t it?

Fraserburgh should be given a bye if the tie can’t be played on the scheduled date.

Knew that would happen, ridiculous that a club with a pool of players like rangers need to muck about  a Highland League club because of call ups from a B-Team. Hope the date that suits them clashes with a Aberdeenshire Cup Tie & the Broch say no thanks

At that point you just know that the SPFL would put Rangers B through…

Remember they told us part of the reason for ditching the Irish and Welsh sides was ‘scheduling difficulties’ yet here we are with games getting called off due to b-teams being involved. Get them in the bin.

We had the same last year against the Rangers B team.  They had a Colombian lad called up, so they clearly couldn't be expected to play Airdrie.  This is how you strengthen the national team, you see.

TBF, did anyone specify which national team it would strengthen?

Hamilton v Morton picked for TV on the Friday night.

Impressive work from Alba to pick what is comfortably the most boring tie of the round, they've clearly gone for it on the sole basis it's the only all Championship tie, but I'm grateful to be spared a trip to Hamilton when they'll probably still try to charge £26 for it.
