SteelmaninOZ Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Montrose is a nice trip and I think we should do all right in group g for grizzly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 It was odds on we'd draw either Raith or Partick but at least its at home. At least we didn't draw Annan, Morton or QoS. Sadly we missed out on a trip to stimulate the ground collectors. A trip to the likes of Brechin, Bonnyrigg, East Kilbride, Peterhead, Buckie, or Kelty would have been nice.

dennyc Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 If it is the usual format we are away to Montrose and Clyde, 1st seeds are at home to second and fourth seeds if I recall it correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Away to Clyde guarantees a large away support, nice wee local trip. Be interesting with Edinburgh city as heard a few rumours they could be close to going out the game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the SPFL ask for guarantees before including them in the draw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Would have been fun if Clyde still played at Shawfield, but New Douglas Park isn't too exciting. Decent mix of teams that we'll no doubt play well/struggle against at different periods of our pre-season regime, and then qualify for the next round regardless.

robsterwood Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Great chance to progress. Also not travelling too far . Patrick toughest but both teams should be different on the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Given that Partick will be playing a Premiership team, namely us, there must be a good chance that the game will be televised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As my Dear Old Dad used to say, at Shawfield you could hit a ball in Lanarkshire and score a goal in Glasgow. Also the site of the great Clyde substitution urban myth, "Goad! Theyr'e takin' aff Ahern and bringin oan a haddie!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted May 29 Report Share Posted May 29 Partick Th will potentially be tough, especially if we play them away from home but it’s more likely we’ll be at home against them. Apart from that that’s a group we should be winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love to see him do well for Canada but still important games for Bair and maybe Paton in league cup if he still here then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ball boys had a tough gig if it ended up on the track, and behind the goals was a lot of ground to cover. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the only bad memory for me was that latterly there seemed to be a lot of greyhound turds lying around Shawfield on match days. Sad to see the decline of Clyde. Think they should have moved to EK and tried to build up their support from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellfan Posted May 31 Report Share Posted May 31 Montrose away on a Tuesday night when the SPFL could quite easily have scheduled the Clyde game for that night instead is a joke. The folk running our game continue to be useless fucking clowns who laugh at us fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point still stands that they're clowns and never have the interests of fans in their thoughts when scheduling midweek fixtures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
