    Challenge Cup

    So, anyone fancy doing a clean sweep of domestic cups and prioritising this one next season?

    no chance. will part cringe if we win that thing.

    the focus has to be the league - we should field a youth team for the challenge cup, and possibly the league cup too.

    League is the focus next year. First & last.
    But winning cups is nice. A habit I can happily get used to.

    If we get a run in this cup and end up in the Final against Houston's Failkirk fuds, you bet I want to win it.

    Forget priorities. We've got a quintuple to win!

    I wouldn't be prioritising it but if we won it I would't be in the least embarrassed.

    That should be the clubs plan.

    Getting into the Europa groups will take a miracle. Anything is possible after this weekend though.

    Speaking of which, what happened to them? Did they enjoy their promotion party on Sunday?

    Agreed. Hopefully this is what we'll do.

    If we get past the 2nd qual round (a miracle in itself) we'll face an easier tie in the 3rd. If we can get to the Playoff round that will be a huge achievement but can't see us getting to the Groups not even in my wildest dreams.

    This cup and the league cup will be used for resting key players, don't the format change next season on the challenge cup with highland, welsh and irish teams involved?
