It was a Seer moment but If the Jam Tarts are top seeds then it would make sense if they are given the two other "higher" teams in Embra  - us and Raif with tother two away.

Us being second it would make sense to have Raif at home. Evidently the other (home or away) would be Cove or Cowdenbeath. As the Jam Tarts are top seeds I suspect that we would be given the second bottom at home (Cowdenbeath)

Raif then would have both Cove and Cowdenbeath at home.

Interesting working out. Was it this method that was used last year then?

If it's like last year the only definite is that the top seed is at home to the second seed so we'd be away to Hearts. Match order and the rest of the home/away draw is random.

The schoolboy error that IHE has made is assuming that the SPFL has the ability to put together a piece of software that can count beyond 2.

Or knows what 'software' is....

Reckon it will be Hearts at tynecastle

Away to Hearts is not a bad shout for the club's finances as it would draw a bigger crowd there than here.

Agreed and we have a decent record playing in the capital.

Theoretically we could be involved in the first competitive game at Cove's new stadium.  Bizarrely, I've never been to Raith Rovers and I'd rather we got Cowdenbeath at home.  One visit to their ground was enough.

Agree about having Cowdenbeath at home, perhaps with Raith as well. Cove and Hearts away would be excellent. No reason why our game with Hearts couldn't be one of the TV games as well I guess.

Are the detailed fixtures not due out today? No sign of them on the SPFL site yet.

It was week commencing 4th June. They may not be out until the end of the week but you never know...

Ive noticed a couple of clubs tweeting that they are due today so fingers crossed. (not ICTFC)

Some good news, they'll be out today at 4pm!

They could....but they would be wrong!!

Only a small part of the TCS actually sits on reclaimed land, and none of that corner was reclaimed using waste as landfill.

It is a dump.  But it's a football dump.  Central Park is a stock cars dump.

I'll give you that!
