Betfred Cup 2017


Recommended Posts


Wouldn't mind Livingston. Ive never had the pleasure of a trip to the Tony Macaroni stadium.

Oh no not Livi. I am still haunted by the 6-1 home defeat in the league cup and a 1-0 Scottish cup exit when John Robertson scored.

 

The last time I was at Livi was to witness one of the worst 0-0 draws of all time. Barry Nicholson was asked to summerise the game...."we were s*it" were his words.

Been mentioned on Off The Ball the last few weeks about the teams in Europe not getting a bye and playing in the group stages.

 

What's everyones thoughts?

 

If you use this season as an example it would be good to give players like Rogers, McKenna and any new signings a bit of match time and help improve sharpness etc. But then so many games in so little time runs the risk of injury etc or making a complete cunt of it like Hearts.

List of possible opponents

 

Dunfermline

Partick

Hamilton

County

Hibs

Livingston

Kilmarnock

Dundee/DundeeUnited

 

Equal chance home/away

 

9th august 7.45

 

Would take anyone at home or away (but would rather avoid County and Killie away for logistics).

 

Hibs would probably be the top team in that list and a potential banana skin.

How would it work with games all being played within space of each other?

Poor idea.

 

It's enough ado as it is going through 3 or 4 rounds of qualifying to get to the group stages of Europe. (if you're good enough to do that of course :lolrangers:)
