We'll need a league squad and a cup squad, like the big teams.

Happy with this draw

If I’m correct then due to us playing on the Thursday, the game will be on the Sunday or Monday but if we get through against HJK - a big if I know - will it be on the Sunday or will the Scottish league screw us for money if Premier want to screen it live on the Monday?

Some good games in that draw.

Happy enough with this draw though Stenhousemuir sailed through their group so it’s definitely not a gimme. Hopefully we don’t burn ourselves out in the (potential) European game on the Thursday night because this one is more important.

We won’t be able to wear our new Claret away kit for this one either, which isn’t a bad thing.

Definitely and there is an incentive for us to get through. You’d expect Celtic to beat Dundee Utd removing the latter from the Quarters and also that Del and Rangers take care of St.Mirren so we won’t need to worry about playing them in a Cup tie in this tournament.

stenhousemuir always triggers an old memory for me when we beat them at fir park, in the Scottish cup, I think. Andy Weir scored the winning goal for us in a 3-2 victory. 
  I think it was the Motherwell times the described his goal as a banana shot. 😂😂

I’m thinking that was maybe mid 60’s??

I remember when we drew them away in the cup in what must have been the early 80s.

It was a nil - nil draw at Ochilview, but we won comfortably in the replay. 6 - 1, if my old memory isn't playing tricks.

Although, if you wanted hot running water you had to kindle a fire in the living room fireplace to heat the water.
