Draw for the next round of the Scottish Cup (when we enter) is on Sunday night at 7:30, on YouTube only I think.

Aren’t we round 4?

We’re definitely in the draw tomorrow

I thought the 'big teams' always came in at 4th Round 🤔

Premiership teams do. League 1, 2 and the winners this weekend come in in November. It’s the reason we don’t have a fixture 25th November at the minute.

Championship teams come in at Round 3? Genuinely never knew that.

I was sure last time we were down we came into the tournament the same time as Celtic, Rangers etc etc.

But maybe i'm wrong.

Hopefully a junior team for easiest chance at progressing.

If i got a pick i’d choose Albion Rovers away, never been to Cliftonhill before and for some reason i really want to go.

Spartans away.

Right that wrong

Clearly you have never been there as you wouldn't want to go back.
Shitehole.

Good old fashioned 'spit n sawdust' Scottish ground.

Good call

Draw taking place now…

Snacks94 · 29/10/2023 8:42 pm

QOS away

Boring.

Stillliving · 29/10/2023 8:47 pm

Another game on a plastic pitch.

RogerTheAlien · 29/10/2023 8:47 pm

Slightly tricky considering a few of the teams in there.

They are poor. All about our attitude on the day. We are starting to create a lot more chances as team than 2019 us. Remember being at both games previously. Lyndon Dykes bullied us first game and I have never seen such a passive manager on the touchline when his team is getting a new arsehole torn! Second game was job done!

Championship teams come in at Round 3? Genuinely never knew that.

Saw a stats tweet yesterday that said this is the first time United have gone into the draw in round 3 since some time in the 1960s (I think). So it was round 4 we entered at the last time we were in the Championship.
More teams involved maybe, and need to whittle the numbers down more than usual to get the correct number of teams going into round 4?
