Most of the big club's u20 sides went out last night. Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen and Hearts.

The second-round draw will take place this Thursday at 1.00pm at Gretna Green. I actually read this as 'Gander green Lane' instead of 'Gretna Green'. Took some moments puzzling over why, then re-read it! |

I’m struggling to comprehend the level that some of these Scottish clubs can be compared to, for example Scottish Leagues One and Two - is that Conference standard perhaps or lower?

Blessed is the person who having nothing to say abstains from giving us wordy evidence of the fact.

I reckon it’s even trickier to evaluate the standard of the teams in the NIFL Premiership and the League of Ireland. Does anybody fancy a trip across the Irish Sea? |

I'm no expert, but I suspect the standard is generally lower. The strongest League One clubs might just hold their own in the National League, but the weakest in League Two would probably struggle in the Isthmian Prem. |

I imagine we’ll look to utilise the whole squad for this competition including a couple of prospects from the academy set-up. |

I imagine we’ll look to utilise the whole squad for this competition including a couple of prospects from the academy set-up. Think it’s a perfect opportunity to get some goals in to our strikers and help them find form and get some players some minutes that have been struggling to break into the team. Besides when was the last time this club won a Cup especially one not limited to clubs in Surrey... |

I support Caley Thistle(ICT) and whenever I go to stay in Fort Augustus I try to see them at least when playing at home. By and large the SFL Championship League is equal to best of our 2nd Division so we should be able to hold our own in the Irn-Bru matches it is the refs you have to look out for, and you think our National League refs are bad! |
