How do you come by this? Will be leaving work shortly to drive down, just curious.

It's the start of the season, no need to rest people.

Just watch as we get put out now

Either butcher is changing the whole team for Motherwell on Sunday. Or he's going for it.

Good move. Although with esson in goals and reguero fit could this mean reguero starts Sunday? Very interesting.

[Proctor]

Lets hope we are not one of the sides that go out to lower league opposition. If we go through the next round will be very interesting. Any idea when the draw for the next round is?

[alternative maryhill]

Excellent news if true that this is the line-up. The club could really do with a decent cup run - it's been too long - and with a few SPL clubs out already, hopefully Terry believes we have a chance of going a long way in this competition. It also gives a few players a chance to atone for Saturday.

Or, as Chris says, assist us to a calamitous defeat...

[tm4tj]

Not playing our strongest side then.

[ubern]

I think after seeing all 3 SPL sides get beaten by lower league sides last night I think it makes sense to put out our strongest side.

[RossP]

We've gone for a pretty full strength team by all accounts; with Meekings and OTJ coming in for Raven and Ross I think
