The 4th round (the last 32) and is where we enter the competition and the draw is on Tuesday at 12 noon. Held in Aberdeen, their favourite son, Alex Ferguson will be helping to draw the ties.

I'd love to see us paired with Fraserburgh. Away(!), as I've never been to The Broch, but any of the 3 clubs from the bottom tier (Albion Rovers, Stirling Albion or Clyde) would be good.

 

Also, being drawn with any of the teams involved in the replays wouldn't be a bad outcome. Don't want a game with any of our Premiership league rivals at this stage!

Dundee United or Dundee might be our destiny. 

I'm hoping for Hearts or Hibs away... Just because I will be in Edinburgh that weekend!

I've read in a previous thread that Dumbarton (pictured above) is the only away ground you've not been to, IHE! Hope it comes out the hat for you! Mind you, it's a long-shot at this stage of the draw! 61/1 odds against!

Looks a nice wee ground next to the 'rock'. I assume that picture wasn't taken at 3pm on a home match day!

Culter away if they can get past Berwick.

 

Johndo i will be visiting this stadium tomorrow to watch our reserve game v Rangers, only 2 more for me now and i'll have done every Scottish professional ground.

 

So Annan away please :)

Has to be Hibs now- home or away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No matter who we come up against we need to win so it doesnt really matter to me who we get.

Am I losing my marbles but have we not played at Annan ?

We've not played at Annan mate, we've played at Gretna's old ground in the Challenge Cup but never visited Galabank

Has to be Hibs now- home or away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yup. I agree.

Quite fancy Sevco either home or away.

Draw about to start.

We've got Morton at home. Fairly happy with that

Home to Morton, not bad! A few spl clubs paired together which makes it look interesting.

We'll certainly be happier about it than Morton.

 

But they did win at Parkhead recently....

Four all Premiership ties. Very average draw for us, not easy and not overly exciting. May as well put my Dougie Imrie anytime goalscorer bet on now...

Hopefully that was their giant killing done for a season 

So long as we score 2 to cancel out Dougie Imrie's obligatory wonder-goal, I'll be happy. Was the last time we played them in the cup? I seem to recall Adam Rooney missing an absolute sitter for his hattrick.

With Ross County also getting a home tie, which one will be moved?

Good question (although there really shouldn't be any problem with having gatherings of about 2,500 people 12 miles apart).

 

County-Hibs is moderately attractive to the TV companies but Hearts-Celtic and Falkirk-Rangers are the obvious prime candidates for telly.

Albion Rovers  v  Motherwell

 

Alloa Athletic  v  Stirling Albion

 

Annan Athletic  or  Stenhousemuir  v  Fraserburgh

 

Ayr United  v  Dunfermline Athletic

 

Berwick Rangers  or  Culter  v  Dumbarton

 

Brechin City  v  Forfar Athletic

 

Clyde  v  Auchinleck Talbot  or  Stranraer

 

Dundee  v  Raith Rovers

 

Dundee United  v  Kilmarnock

 

Falkirk  v  Rangers

 

Hearts  v  Celtic

 

Inverness Caley Thistle  v  Morton

 

Partick Thistle  v  Aberdeen

 

Queen of the South  v  St. Mirren

 

Ross County  v  Hibernian

 

St. Johnstone  v  Livingston

I'm keeping this in mind as well, before investigating trains...
