RossBFaeDundee Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) Ah, our good friends to the north, though we don't seem to be the kindest to you regarding the cups this season, thinking back to the Challenge Cup kerfuffle with the loanees. Can't say I'm displeased with this draw (though obviously a home draw would've been preferable), but considering how bad we are right now and how much we struggled to put away a 10-man Dumbarton today, this game is there for the taking for Jim McInally's men. If we revamp our team by the end of the January transfer window and get our form corrected I might consider heading up to see this. A first, as well, in the Scottish Cup between the two sides. Feel strange considering how often it feels we've came across each other in cup competitions, particularly the League Cup of course.

doulikefish Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Always be a warm welcome for Cammy and Josh at Balmoor I was surprised it's our first ever Scottish cup tie but I think like most just go so used to playing each other in the challenge cup I naturally assumed one of them was probably in the big cup. Keep it tight and try and Nick it will be the order of the day 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I’ll probably go to this. Peterhead isn’t as far away as people make out, being closer than a trip to Morton. I guess the poor roads north of Aberdeen make it seem like more of a trek. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dual carriageway all the way to Ellon its no bother now with the AWPR.. A home draw is ok but if Dundee are still struggling then may not be a money-spinner either, on the other hand we sometimes raise our game against higher league opposition 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to have been a bit of a rift between the the clubs now, started when Dundee used all three of their loans to us who we presumably helped pay the wages of were used by them to play against us for their B team in the challenge cup. Think everyone at the club would hope Josh Mulligan goes on to do well for Dundee but strangely since he was recalled the other two Dundee loan players seem to have disappeared from the squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame Si Ferry for leading Jason Cummings astray. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossBFaeDundee Posted January 27, 2022 Author Share Posted January 27, 2022 I cannot believe this has been picked for TV literally the only reason I can think of is that it's the most likely cup upset of bunch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 (edited) Decent pick, lower league or non-league side at home to top flight team is the ideal TV choice. Hopefully Alexandra Burke will be available for the half-time entertainment. Edited January 27, 2022 by Bully Wee Villa 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 We had plans of sandwiching this between pre and post match pints for my pals bairns head wetting on the Saturday. Didn't cross my mind for a second that it'd get moved for TV. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peternapper Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 No surprize there, if there is no sign of the teams at Balmoor by 1940 on Monday night i may believe them but probably not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted February 10, 2022 Author Share Posted February 10, 2022 And all of a sudden, I'm up for this one again. Reckon McPake continues with the 3-5-2 (it's the formation he's always wanted to play, after all), but hopefully with Ibsen Rossi replacing Fontaine in the middle of the back 3. Rudden and Mullen to start together again, just wish we had another option off the bench since we might finally look to starting 2 strikers in a game, AFTER Griff and Cummings leave. If Peterhead have any pace in them they'll cause us plenty of trouble I reckon, we just can't handle it. On a separate note, I'm curious what the situation is with Lyall Cameron and Danny Strachan is. Pretty sure they're both still on loan, but nowhere to be seen as of late. Any Toon fans know what the deal is there? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blootoon87 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Lyall Cameron and Danny Strachan haven't been seen since you took Josh Mulligan back. Dundee recalled them at the same time I heard, but who knows? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velo army Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Rudden is a purple patch type striker, so having scored last week he'll score a hat-trick in this game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
