Agreed all it takes is a dodgy ref to collude with someone to do the bet for him and then produce red in a 50/50 challenge.

As I am on CCC mandate I expect to be charged for the home games and possibly balloted for away games but stick to my point that travelling to away games will prove difficult for many. Also I would like to see a cheap price structuring for this cup when it starts, as there are so many games in a short period, for those having to pay full price.Luckily for me I am on concession so cost less prohibitive.

Go to cup draw thread and see what is not 3.00 kick-offs already.

Thanks Coop I will have to think hard on home games as these nights are when I have something else on probably go to one of them. Just annoying that I will be charged for them as the only carrot as you say is chance to see new players.

Hopefully I don't get any away tickets in ballot especially Motherwell safety could be compromised. A total waste of time this cup and its new format.

Draw now out 16 July v Motherwell on BT away,19 July v Annan home, 22 July v East Stirling away on BT and25 July v Stranraer home on BT.

Good idea but I will not be following the tournament similar to not following the CL and EL. Good luck though.

Have e-mailed Rangers re this situation especially for away games asking that if balloted a ticket for an away game that is shifted for television to a weekday night that the right is given to cancel it .This would be over and above the two allowed at present to those on ccc mandate.As usual no reply forthcoming.

Great way to spend their Giro's there will be an even bigger queue at the foodbank in the east.

Has BBC Scotland turned a new leaf?. Anyway good show from them on this.

The Championship will probably have them for years they have plenty of bottle crashing to carry on with hence departure of Stubbs,

Surely the remit will be to summarise events and give findings not to deal with discipline this should be done immediately by compliance officer,sorry forgetting that it might be them that are in danger of being denied EL entry and not us or it would already have been done.

Scenario five minutes to go 4-0 us v manky mob scum fan runs on so home team (us) get hauled up and lose points would bet on this happening:flute:

Sorry used name of a great leader in error should have posted Billy Graham, M.L.K. was not an evangelist,thanks for your post JohnMc.

Waiting as everybody is for the fixture list,but does anyone think this cup is sliding downwards and will soon be comparable to the so called "diddy cup"?

A statement to appease the press who will now think they have reacted to deal with the crap that their fans gave out.

Would take Ball anytime in preference to Wilson.

With regard to the smaller clubs good luck to them a big thanks to East Fife who erected a temporary terracing to the mystery of Stenhousemuir who seemed to have enough security to cover a U.N. state visit. Glad I am not visiting Falkirk again this season as with their entry system about 3 hours is needed in the queue,didn't get to Dumbarton but setting of pitch scenic. Could go on & on but it has been a "journey" right enough.

Sounds good on paper but I could not face being demoted to juniors:eek2:

Have taken no offence my friend I just abhor all things religious and what they stand for as I also do with politics,but they exist for a reason.

You don't have to listen to a politician but it is your choice to go to church and sit there. I have no axe to grind as we are all different but am just putting my view accross.

Re my post if you go to church every Sunday there will be no doubt a sermon bemoaning those who are not there and you will sit and listen(a subtle form of brainwashing). Many years ago I had a conversation with the Minister in the church my wife attended as did our boys for Sunday school.I was asked by the Minister why when I helped out with many thing including delivering and collecting christian aid envelopes,delivering "harvest thanksgiving and so on Iwas not a member of the church. My reply was that I did not see why I should sit every Sunday and have him look down upon those there and preach about those not there.He laughed and with a wry grin stated"John I can not beat that arguement and thanked me and looked to my continued support as a non-member. With regard to non-catholics attending catholic schools several children from where I do my crossing patrol went to the catholic school by choice due to travelling ease when moving up to secondary education.

Religion and churches,chapel ,mosques etc. are just a pedestal for brainwashing as was the likes of Martin Luther King,ISIS, and all other Evangelists ,bible thumpers and the rest.The only true voters are those who have their own mind and can make decisions without influence of others.

Does he get the flap on his skull opened to have the pish he talks to be downloaded?

No that would not have been possible as you know.But I hope he will bring organising skills to the team in all situations as ,Wallace", although a decent person and team captain does not have these skills.This was accentuated by the winning goal against us in the final.If you look at it frame by frame ,Tav is in the position Wallace should have been,i.e. the left of Foderingham's post,Wallace,Wilson and Kiernan are in the middle of the goals,Halliday fails to cover Gray's run,allowing a free header and no one is on the goal line,all primary school errors due to the lack of directive. Once again I say that this could have been avoided if we can learn how to see out games row ZZ etc.
