Glens lad Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Unless I'm not getting what you are saying, does this make any sense? First two sentences seem to contradict each other. You're not getting it ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Is it a raffle? Doesn't seem to be any seeding. Why don't they have more 1st round games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takes it down to 128 clubs for the second round - it's a preliminary round in all but name. The only clubs that get a bye early doors are those involved in the "big" Scottish, and long may that continue...last thing we need is to have a stage-managed set-up like the Champions' League has become where they'd be as well giving the usual suspects a bye to the quarter finals and do away with the annoyance of having to play the diddy teams on the way.

Shanner Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I quite like that it doesn't have seeding or anything like that. Keeps it nice and open and fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means the feeling is winning the Scottish cannot be matched and only a few teams/ fans have enjoyed it What's not to get? So that's what the 2nd sentence means?

So almost two hundred quid more for a mile difference. Obviously there have to be boundaries but that jump seems bizarre. And if it's 200.5 miles according to the AA / RAC? It should be up to 200 miles then over 200 miles! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
