Super Cooper 0 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Safe to say Celtic have this in the bag already. Give us Dundee Utd at Tannadice, that ought to bring a few of our lot down to earth. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 5,184 Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 Dundee United seem to have a magnetic hold on Rangers in Scottish Cup draws in recent years. Could do with avoiding them this year. Falkirk are the other team that we are often paired with and I'd be happy with the Bairns. 2009 LC: Falkirk (N) 3-0 W SC: Falkirk (N) 1-0 W 2010 SC: Dundee Utd (H) 3-3 D SC: Dundee Utd (A) 1-0 L 2011 LC: Falkirk (A) 3-2 L 2012 SC: Dundee Utd (H) 0-2 L CC: Falkirk (A) 0-1 W LC: Falkirk (H) 3-0 W 2013 SC: Dundee Utd (A) 3-0 L 2014 SC: Falkirk (A) 0-2 W LC: Falkirk (A) 1-3 W SC: Dundee Utd (N*) 1-3 L * semi-final played at a 'neutral' Ibrox. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 The teams I'd prefer to avoid in this draw are Celtic, Inverness CT & Dundee Utd, but if we draw one of those three then bring it on because we're capable of beating any of them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannochsidebear 2,405 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 The preferences for cup draws are one of the few things that haven't changed in Scottish football since our demise. Give us a lower league team at home, and give "them" the hardest possible away draw. The only thing that has changed is the reasoning. It is now because I really dont want them to win the treble, whereas it used to be to give us the best chance to win the treble. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,562 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Raith Rovers at Ibrox it is then. Should be straightforward enough. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,743 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 5th Round Rangers v Raith Rovers Spartans v Berwick Rangers or Albion Rovers Partick Thistle v St Mirren or Inverness CT Stranraer or Dunfermline Athletic v Dundee United Falkirk v Annan Athletic or Brechin City Hibernian v Arbroath Dundee v Celtic Queen of the South v St Johnstone Well, a good draw for us, at home too. Another Premiership team will go out as well, while neither the Arabs nor the Perth Saints will relish their away ties. And I guess the friendly people of Dundee will welcome the grey-green Horde with open arms, after the latter ran amok in their stands not so long ago. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
