    Apart from ICT away, - probably the hardest possible draw.

    Shame we didn't get one of the Junior teams at Palmerston bringing a decent crowd down, - but alas, - we will just have to give it a go.

    Not much luck with the draw and yet another away game - now 5 - with only the Bairns and Montrose at home in the coming weeks

    I had hopes for a similar fixture but an away one. A split of the gate and a wee trip to pastures new would have made a nice change.

    Agreed, - a trip to Bonyrigg Rose, or one of the Ayrshire Juniors would have been a very interesting tie.

    Its a shame that the league clubs weren't pulled out of one pot, - to avoid this sort of clash. I'm sure the non league clubs would all appreciate a chance of getting one of the 'big boys.' The trouble then would be determining whether the tie was played at home or away.

    Of course, - I know that Bonyrigg are a league club, - but I was harking back to a few seasons ago, - when they brought an amazing crowd down to Palmy.

    I remember Linlithgow Rose at Palmy in our run up to the 2008 Cup Final and they brought a decent following that boosted the crowd to just over 3,000

    And would have involved some proper creative thinking from the chaps at the SFA...

    Yes, - one option would be separate the league clubs; draw the team they are playing against, - and then simply toss a coin to see who plays at home. Not a lot of effort for some very exciting and unique ties every year.
