Probably not even a combined total of 11 players still playing for these clubs, that were involved in our tie this time last year. Mental.

Pleased with the draw, Saturday 3pm kick off, in the middle of August, should help to ensure a decent crowd from both teams.

Will we get more than just the stand behind the goals? We'll sell whatever we're given for this one.

You'll certainly get the north east as well as the cowden end. Sell all that and a section of the main stand will be offered. No more, about 6000 approx away tickets available, very very rair for all that to be sold.

Regarding TV - I think that BT have the right to show (up to) 6 games over the next 3 rounds. Last year, they showed just one 2nd round match, 3 quarter finals and 2 semi-finals. Would expect it to be similar this year.

Although, perhaps with the second round being at the weekend, they’ll choose 2 games from that and 2 midweek quarter finals. Would think we’d be 3rd/4th in the preference of TV games, so think we’ll be Saturday 18th at 3pm

Think this is a potential banana skin. Berra will head it to f**k though and we’ll be fine. Get “revenge” for last year...

Judging by your performance against ICT, you should win this without too much difficulty. Inverness didn’t even do that much wrong and still got an absolute skudding.

The difference between ourselves and ICT looks to be that we currently look quicker/better in attack, especially on the counter.

Settle, they had Shaun Rooney playing which is like gifting a goal or two to the opposition

Despite a pretty poor record overall against the Hearts, we seem to have a decent record in cup competitions. I remember beating them in this competition in extra time at East End with Allan Moore (I think) scoring in extra time, the last minute Scott Wilson header in our Scottish Cup final run and if course the draw last year and subsequent penalty bonus point fun. Hopefully the prices are sensible (I'd love it to be £10/£5 but something like £15/£8 would still be good value and should see a good crowd) and we give it a good go.

Prices confirmed as £18 for adults, £12 for concessions.

Season ticket holders only have until 4pm on Friday, to secure their seats. Seems a bit rubbish, for those of us that work full time!
