der Berliner 3,245 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 While they are not in the fray just yet, I hope that we will stay away from any top tier / ex.SPL club for as long as possible. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad state of affairs. We should fear nobody - they should fear us. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zappa 0 Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Thursday, 10 July 2014 14:00 Queen's Park In League Cup For Gers Written by Rangers Football Club RANGERS will face Queen's Park away from home in the first round of the Scottish League Cup after this afternoon's draw. The Hampden side are currently using Airdrieonians' Excelsior Stadium for their home matches while the national stadium is occupied by the Commonwealth Games. Although the First Round is scheduled to be played on the weekend of August 2nd, a date for the tie has yet to be confirmed due to Glasgow 2014. Ally McCoist's men fell at the first hurdle in this competition last season and will be aiming to avoid a repeat of that extra-time defeat to Forfar last August. The Light Blues have a positive recent record against the Spiders with four victories in the league in season 2012-2013 when both sides were in Scotland's fourth tier. Their last meeting in the League Cup was in 1991 when a 6-0 victory for Rangers featured four goals from Mo Johnston and a strike from current first team coach Ian Durrant. http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/item/7173-queens-park-in-league-cup-for-gers 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gribz 743 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Another good pay day for Queens Park as that will mean a big away support at Hampden although it has to be rescheduled. Glamorous ties in the cup - Hibs at home in the Petrofac Cup and a trip to Hampden in the League Cup. But lets see if Ally can improve his cup record first. Rangers have been drawn to face Queen's Park in the first round of the Scottish League Cup. Ally McCoist's men stumbled at the first round stage last season, losing in extra-time to Forfar. Premiership sides Dundee and Hamilton Accies both have home ties, with the Dens Park men hosting Peterhead and Arbroath the visitors to Lanarkshire. Scottish Championship side Falkirk face a trip to Montrose and League One Morton are at home to Berwick Rangers. The longest trip will be made by Elgin City, who have a lengthy trek to Queen of the South. Ramdens Cup winners Raith Rovers are at home to Forfar, and Dunfermline host Annan Athletic. Albion Rovers, last season's shock package in the Scottish Cup, are at home to Livingston. Three-time winners East Fife, who last lifted the trophy in 1953, will make the trip to Stranraer. East Stirlingshire face Ayr United, and Clyde are up against Cowdenbeath. Brechin City are at home to Dumbarton, Airdrieonians play Stenhousemuir, and Alloa Athletic welcome Stirling Albion to Recreation Park. All ties are due to be played 2 August, however, due to the Commonwealth Games, the Queen's Park and Rangers clash will be rescheduled.
