For those who are planning to go to the game, it's a 16:30 kick off on Sunday August 1st. Trains from Edinburgh to motherwell are going to be either limited or not running at all due to strikes. Parking is typical for a Motherwell game. There is no Staidum parking (Apart for the school area which won't be available for most people. You should look and plan ahead before leaving as it has been nearly 1.5 years potentially for most people.

Seems that anyone who pre ordered the Livingston Motherwell Away top has had their orders dispatched today.

To mostly rubbish teams but Dundee have the advantage of playing pretty well in the Group Stages. I think it may be a bit more even when the match gets played but if we continue our current form then Dundee should be odds on favourites.

The last time we played them, we went into our death spiral that we still haven't recovered from.

Final draw: Rangers vs Dunfermline Arbroath vs St Johnstone Hibs vs Kilmarnock Ayr United vs Dundee United Celtic vs Hearts Raith Rovers vs Aberdeen Dundee vs Motherwell Livingston vs St Mirren Date TBC but they will take place on the weekend of the 14th and 15th of August (just under 3 weeks from now). Exact dates and times will be provided as soon as possible but they will have to wait for the TV picks. Expect the Rangers and Celtic games to be picked first.

So after the results today, its Dundee Unoted and Stmirren who are seeded. Hearts miss out on a seeded spot on goals scored. Seeded Aberdeen Celtic Dundee Dundee United Hibs Rangers St Johnstone St Mirren Unseeded Arbroath Ayr Dunfermlinee Hearts Kilmarnock Livingston Motherwell Raith Rovers The draw is due to take place shortly.

Sorry, auto correct keeps thinking that it's an M instead of an N. Fixed it.

As the Group Stages of the League cup come to an end, we have (mostly) a list of who is through and a rough idea of who will be seeded. I will update the table once the draw has bee made but as it stands, the following Teams are seeded and unseeded (will update after the Hearts game). Seeded Aberdeen Celtic Dundee Dundee United Hibs Rangers St Johnstone St Mirren Unseeded Arbroath Ayr Dunfermlinee Hearts Kilmarnock Livingston Motherwell Raith Rovers Final draw: Rangers vs Dunfermline Arbroath vs St Johnstone Hibs vs Kilmarnock Ayr United vs Dundee United Celtic vs Hearts Raith Rovers vs Aberdeen Dundee vs Motherwell Livingston vs St Mirren The draw itself will take place After the Heats vs ICT match on Premier Sports on Sunday 25th July. The fixtures are due to take place on the weekend beginning the 14th and 15th of August 2021. The exact dates and times will be decided at a later date (so not on the 25th July) as TV picks will have to e decided before hand. So who is everyone hoping for? Ideally since we are unseeded, I would prefer Dundee. The easiest team that I can think of in this seeding.

Unless you were put In the South Upper and the security kept pestering people to move even if they were only 1 seat to the left or right.....

As @santheman said, I believe they are expecting around 2000 to 2500 max for away fans in the coming months. Don't know if that will apply to the hibs game as it is so close but the next home game is against Dundee at the end of August (assuming no home game in the League Cup). Also of note, the Main stand is getting redone next summer with all the wooden and pod seats being replaced with actual seats similar to the rest of the stadium. Also they plan to get rid of a portion of the wee garden and build an extention/additional support for the disabled area. They had planned for some of it to happen before the season started but it took to long. The dressing rooms have been upgraded/changed to be more suitable as a professional football club.

Well. At least we know how Liam Kelly would have done in a penalty shoot-out.

I think the only people who actually believe that these games are pre season friendlies is the motherwell squad.

In before we draw or lose and its Queens Park that go through

Well, QOTS winning is the only way I can see us getting through the group stage.

Today's motherwell line up against Annan Kelly, S O'Donnell, O'Connor, Lamie, McGinley, Carroll, Donnelly, Maguire, Amaluzor, Woolery, Van Veen. Subs: Fox, Johnston, Parker, Crawford, C O'Donnell, Slattery, McLeod, Lawless, Watt. Atleast Crawford isn't starting.
