die hard doonhamer Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Hamilton, Queens, Albion Rovers, Stenhousemuir and East Kilbride. Pretty happy with this draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Judge Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 A decent group. Hope the EK - Queens match is at Palmerston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palmy_cammy Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Decent enough draw. Stenny again being the only slight disappointment. Nothing personal and I'm sure the feeling is mutual! I'd imagine our pre-season game will now be panned.Without getting ahead of myself we should certainly be looking to qualify from this, and I'd give us an outside chance of topping the group.

YER SISTERS YER MAW Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Happy with the group. We should be aiming for 9 points but no doubt we'll f**k at least one up against Rovers, Stenny or EK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 As good a draw as good have been. Would love the EK to be away. We've a real chance of topping the group. Edited to add, I don't know why I'm so confident actually given our record against Albion in the cups! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILLIEA Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 At first glance looks good, possibly even winnable? But, then I think of Albion Rovers/ who might be the first " biggish " club to fall to EK and I get a fear!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloop John B Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 On the face of it, an ideal group for us. Hamilton usually seem to be fairly poor in cup games, Albion Rovers offers a good revenge game though they have lost a lot of players since then, Stenny is the least glamorous tie for us but they have made some good signings so will be a more interesting proposition and East Kilbride are a team we haven't faced before. Either 'Stone Cold' Stenhousemuir or East Kilbride away pls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d_t_b Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Happy enough with this. Pretty much all of them would be a good laugh away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Judge Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Based on info provided in the main cup thread re last seasons schedule, Queen of the South's fixtures would be: Stenhousemuir v Qos QoS v EK (midweek) Hamilton v QoS (free midweek) QoS v Albion Rovers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will almost certainly be away to Accies on matchday 3 and free midweek matchday 4. The other three games could be in any order though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laid-back Accie Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Good draw, don't agree with the aiming for 9 points though, surely we should be looking at winning every game against lower league opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, meant to say at least 9 points. With Accies in cup competition, every game's a potential banana skin and there's usually a slip up along the way.

19QOS19 Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 We will almost certainly be away to Accies on matchday 3... I've seen that said a few times now, why is this likely to be the case? I'm guessing it's not a case of randomly selecting the home and away fixtures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the top seeds played the second seeds at home last season on matchday 3, with the top seeds having a free midweek beforehand. Eta just noticed HJ's post from the League Cup thread.

Guest Flash Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 9 hours ago, HibeeJibee said: There is definitely some kind of pre-set system - for example last season (with the exception of the Motherwell & Rangers group) all the first seeds were at home to the second seeds on the middle Saturday; all the first seeds had the preceding midweek off; and so on. My recollection is that the unseeded clubs were positioned by random draw or the order in which they were drawn, as opposed to any ranking. Put simply:* the first seeds played AXHAH * the seconds seeds played AHAXH * the unseeded clubs played respectively HAHAX... HAXHA... and XHAHA and* the first seeds played the second seeds and 1 unseeded at home; 2 unseeded away * the second seeds played 2 unseeded at home; the first seeds and 1 unseeded away * two unseeded clubs each played the first seeds and a fellow unseeded at home, the second seed and a fellow unseeded away... the other played the second seed and a fellow unseeded at home, the first seed and a fellow unseeded away and* the first seeds got both home games on weekends * the second seeds got 1 home game on weekend * the unseeded clubs got respectively both home games... 1 home game... and no home games on weekends So to answer the original question - if the same system is used you are bound to play either Dundee or Dundee Utd at home, but not both, and it's more likely to be Dundee.
