TNS away would be a good trip
St Mirren at Tannadice in the semi.
TNS at Wembley in the final.

away to QOS GUTTED

Will take that, decent away day.
Online!
Would be a total minter if a Welsh team get to the final of a scottish competition....even worse if they won it.
United, in this Diddy cup should have enough to beat any of the teams left at a canter

Best draw would have been - TNS (H)
2nd best - St Mirren (H)
3rd best - QotS (H)
4th best - TNS (A)
5th best - St Mirren (A)
Worst - QotS (A)
Yet again we come away with the worst draw.

No really sure how its the worst draw
They are horrific at home as a couple weeks ago proved.

Outwith us, they are the best team left in the competition so to play them away from home is the worst draw possible. It depends how you judge what is a good/or bad draw. Either you look at which draw gives United the best chance of progressing (i.e. a home draw against the poorest team left in it) or, you base it on which draw allows young lads to go on the piss for the longest (away to TNS followed by QOTS). Personally, I base it on the former these days due to family and financial responsibilities rather than seeing United as a drinking club.
Hearing you.
I put TNS 1st & 4th cos of novelty value. Best three all home ties obviously.
At least a United v TNS final is still on the cards & I'd love to know where it would be played. Carlisle maybe, full house?

Keep the money in Scotland.
Have it at Palmerston.
Closest biggish team to the Border.
Both teams could have one of the terraces behind the goals,and Utd could take one or both of the other stands too.
If we win the Semi,that is.

TNS presently are ranked ninth in home attendances in the Welsh league, with an average below 300. If they get through, there won't be much demand from their end for tickets in a final.

As tough as it could be, trip over the border now out the question in this trophy (for good hopefully), pity as it would've been good, just for the novelty value.
Final should be played at the normal sort of grounds btw, not moved nearer the border to suit "invited guests" from other countries. St Mirren will pump them anyway.

Agree with all that.
If we make the final you'd want the stadium reasonably full. Last time we were in this competition's final at McDairmid the crowd was 7856.
Crowd will depend on who we play as StMirren would take far more than TNS.
SFA will go for Edinburgh probably.
