The club said yesterday no inspection was planned.
-
Pals off the park?!
-
I agree. As a starter, what about: Mackay Rooney Toshney McHattie Harper Welsh Carson Walsh MacGregor Machado Todorov Can’t see it happening but it would give a lot of players a break before the next few critical weeks, whilst helping Welsh and Walsh back to full fitness.
-
I wonder if we will start with any of Harper, MacGregor and Machado or whether we will have our first choice 11 to maximise our chances of getting to the final.
-
I agree entirely. What are the rules for Colts teams? Can they field a limited number of over 21s? As their league game is off today, could that mean we face a tougher team tomorrow? No inspection planned according to the club’s Twitter feed. Doran and Toshney trained yesterday so may be available. I didn’t know Toshney had been injured.

HT 1-0 FT 3-1

Raith Rovers have won 2-1 away at Partick Thistle so will be our opponents if we win on Sunday. Must admit I’m glad Partick are out given our record against them this season.

Friday night after an away league game on the Tuesday...., Once again, we’ve been done no favours!
-
And Vigurs got his customary booking! Hibs sit sixth, one place below Livingston, so we should go there with no fear and give it our best shot. We’ve nothing to lose!
-
Take it as a compliment to your knowledge!
-
I would fancy us against them at home. Playing away will be tough and we’ve an away league game that midweek too. A repeat of yesterday would do nicely!

Disappointing how little the BBC have shown on Sportscene, but what a free kick from Welsh!

Outside the ugly sisters, in percentage terms that must match most teams. Says a lot for what we’ve achieved in our short existence. Barring a miracle by BSC Glasgow or Clyde, we will be the only non top flight team in the last 8. I must admit, whilst our finances are not good, I’m hoping for a winnable home draw and, perhaps, another trip to Hampden.

Any word on why Aaron Doran missed today’s game? Hopefully nothing serious.
-
387 over: is that the worst closest to the crowd ever?
-
Indeed! Did Dykes do anything other than try long throw ins with the wind in the first half?
-
They are off the bottom on goal difference after winning at Turriff. 7 points out of 9 on the road. Hopefully our youngsters are benefitting from their loan spells. Morrison and Hyde scored today.

A very good display by the team in poor conditions. First half against the wind was always going to be backs to the wall but we handled the conditions well, we’re not too troubled and made a good game of it. Second half we used the conditions to our benefit and did really well. Welsh scored direct from a free kick into the bottom corner while half the crowd were watching Storey run to the touch line to change his boots! We then did well to close the game out. Yes there were some loose balls in poor conditions but we were more than a match for Livingston. Ridgers and the defence coped well. Carson was the pick of the midfield, making a right nuisance of himself, whilst Welsh just brings calmness and control. White had a good game up front whilst I cannot fault any of the guys. A good job well done. Just a shame only 1512 there to enjoy it Roll on the draw for the last 8.

The wind is picking up. If it is swirling in the stadium, a day for keeping the ball down. With today being a key anniversary and being underdogs against a team doing well in the Premiership, albeit with dodgy away form, this is a day for our guys to show what they are made of, step up to the mark and get us through to the next round. Let’s get behind them from kick off!

HT 1-1 FT 2-1 ICT White Livingston Dykes Crowd 1899 Yellow Mckay
-
I didn’t make the game, only the second home one I’ve missed this season, ironically both league games against Alloa, and the above comments are very mixed! No one has commented on the pitch: has the problem at the home end in front of the main stand been sorted?
-
We are underdogs on Saturday but have a good cup pedigree so we have every chance. Lets hope we get a decent home support, perhaps even some vocal support from the YT, and the team rises to the occasion. Reading the piece on Livingston on the BBC Sport website, they are strong at home but struggle a bit away from home. That should give us confidence that we can compete with them and get a result. If Welsh is fit enough to start, that bolsters our midfield and gives support to whatever our defence ends up being. Hopefully Rooney and McHattie both make it, but if we need to turn to Harper that does not worry me as he has looked good when I have seen him, and Tremarco has covered at centre half before.

Don’t know, my wife bought ours on Ticketmaster.
-
They got a point in Banff against Deveronvale, so 4 points out of 6 in their last 2 away games. They have a fighting chance of not finishing bottom....

Just for the record, I’ve never said I agree with the announcements being made, but the club is using local youngsters to do them which is community engagement. All I was highlighting was that, if we are going to do them, we should at least try to capitalise on them. I am a Highlander and proud of it, having been away for work for a while and coming back to the area it has changed immensely and our economy, whether we like it if not, depends greatly on tourism. Anyway, I’m going to shut up on this and respect the views of others.
