Scottish Cup 5th round draw

[Yngwie]

Draw takes place at 1.05pm today and is live on Sky Sports News.

 

We obviously have a tricky replay to deal with first, but if we can shake off our shadows, who would you want? The lack of any real upsets so far means there are not many desirable ties up for grabs.

 

Forfar away would be my first preference, we haven't been there for about 10 years as far as I can recall.

 

A return to Arbroath would also be fine, and a first visit to Turriff would be a nice novelty, here's hoping both of them can win their replays.

It's Killie away.

[DundeeICT]

away to killie if we get through the replay!!

[Yngwie]

This is the 5th time we've been in a cup draw this season, and the 5th time we've been drawn away from home.

 

The chances of that happening are 1 in 32, I think.

Well if we get past County i‘m happy with that draw. We have a great record there and it‘s a great away day.

We've still got to beat County first.

Pencil might be the better option at this stage.

At this moment in time, ICT and Celtic are the only teams in contention for the treble. Not often you can say that.

 

Some might say St Mirren too, but they are more in contention for relegation.

Would have liked an easier draw, but could have been worse.  Reasonable record at Killie.

[+CaleyD]

Hard to get excited about the draw until.....

 

a. The replay is taken care of, and....

b. We get a bit closer to the date.

 

At the moment it's all a bit "Meh"!!!

[+old caley girl]

Don't care until will dispose of the "shadows".

[TopSix]

I'm hopeful with our good sized pitch we'll be able to play our own brand of total football and see the shadows off with ease. Killie away is highly winnable.
