lubo_blaha Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 (edited) The Lanarkshire clubs seem to have their fixtures publicly available for some reason. Dons away to EK on Saturday 20th, quite gutted it’s not Dumfries. ETA: didn’t realise we could get two Saturday away games - ideal!

Nowhereman Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 I see Sons fans have to buy a ticket in advance for their tie at Pittodrie. No pay at the gate or even the ability to buy online on the day of the game. Scottish football really knows how to encourage custom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I'd just like to wish all of our competitors a good battle in this group stage and the best of luck for the rest of the season. Except for EK. f**k EK. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemis Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Just a heads up for anybody planning to travel to Dumfries by train on Saturday. It is a rail replacement bus between Kilmarnock and Dumfries that takes two hours. Also, the last one back leaves Dumfries at 18.43 which is obviously before the game ends. Alternative would be to go via Carlisle. Not sure if a Glasgow/Dumfries ticket would be valid. Might not be that much more expensive to buy an advance Glasgow/Carlisle return and then a Carlisle/Dumfries return separately. Best to check on National Rail enquiries website or app. Lockerbie isn’t really an option as there’s no bus back to Lockerbie after the game (you could get a taxi, of course). Another alternative is the X74 bus from Glasgow to Dumfries. Bus back is at 20.45. Might not affect that many people but I just thought I’d mention it anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacksgranda Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Will be interesting to see how this game pans out. A win would be a necessity, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm slightly concerned as we haven't had much of a preseason, and the last two times we visited Dumfries we didn't win in 90 minutes. I remember the last time we went, we needed a winner from Considine in the 119th minute. Still, it's a late kickoff, so I'll be a bit pissed . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's called the League Cup in name but the majority of teams have played 2 or 3 bounce games at this point with a host of trialists involved and these games are nothing more than getting some slightly more competitive minutes into squad members. Understand for sides like Aberdeen they want/need to get through but the vast majority are treating this as an extention of preseason. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Aye. I obviously want us to get through for the financial boost. But it's hard not to treat it like preseason for sides like us. Hopefully Craic is allowed to play and can get a running start for the Alloa game. Interested to see how Murphy approaches this. We'll be stronger with Lyon, Cochrane and Benji in the middle and I expect McIntosh will be a lone striker rather than a front 2. If we give Aberdeen a decent game I'll be happy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Final is on 15 December so it won’t make any difference to Killie if he is cup-tied (if that’s what you meant). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye that's what I meant. Hopefully means he'll be eligible. I assume Killie can recall him at any time though? Surely they'll let him play. As I say, it's more so he can get some game time before the serious stuff starts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, Killie can only recall him in January, meaning he can’t play for them in the League Cup this season whether he plays for Queens in it or not. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they call him back tomorrow or at any point in the next 6 weeks? In fact, does that rule actually apply until the end of September, since teams at our level can loan players until then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
