Week 1 - Edinburgh CIty

Week 2 - Peterhead

Week 3 - Queen's Park

Week 4 - Heart of Midlothian

Week 5 - Clyde FC

Week 6 - Hibernian

Probably the toughest week yet in terms of picking a team. Although there are a bunch of decent matchups, not one of them sticks out. My tried-and-tested method of picking Albion Rovers' opposition every week doesn't seem like a safety blanket any more after Cowden was held to a draw last Saturday (with the Wee Rovers having a strong new goalie and facing mediocre Stirling Albion next), and popular picks this round like Hibernian and Edinburgh City I've alreayd used previously. Celtic hasn't been doing so hot, which makes pulling the trigger on them versus an underperforming Aberdeen a bit of a gamble. Arbroath have a tough matchup , none of the teams in the Championship are stringing together wins and Stevie G's Rangers are facing surprise package Livingston. With that in mind, my seventh pick will have to be.....

Week 7 - Hamilton Academical

Am I nuts? Probably, but Dundee FC have Neil McCann and a slew of terrible signings to their name, in addition to 14 conceded goals across 6 League matches. Accies, meanwhile, sit on six points with wins versus Motherwell and Saint Mirren (3-0 last week) in the bag. Considering Saint Mirren beat Dundee 2 to 1 on the opening day of the season, all the signs point towards a home win on Saturday. It was either this match or East Fife - Stenhousemuir, honestly, but I hope the Accies do me proud.

@Im_Rodger high stakes for us both

Special mention to Eednud, who's made it this far without using either of the Old Firm or in fact *any* top flight side. That's some super lower league knowledge!

Gameweek 8 will be followed by a two-week break for internationals/Irn Bru Cup; therefore Gameweek 9 entries would be required by 7pm on Friday 19th October.

Eednud has the distinct advantage of being 12000 miles away.

Now, with the international break and Challenge Cup breaking up proceedings next weekend, Gameweek 9 will be played on the weekend 20th/21st October. Deadline for entries is 7pm on Friday 19th October.

I know the League Two clubs will be in Scottish Cup action that weekend but those are not included in LMS, so you'll have to choose sides from Prem, Champ and L1 only.
