Imagine the outcry when they are made to play Saturday lunchtime after playing away in Portugal on the Wednesday night.
Don’t think that will have any influence on things at all.Quote:

Some of the comments are cringeworthy to say the least.
Yes it's a good draw but they will be no pushover and we can't take the tie lightly.
They've been playing well and will fancy their chances against our dodgy defence.
Weve played the same day before.Quote:

Inverness currently trail Dundee Utd by 17 points in the Championship so must be comparatively poor.
Hibs at home with Docherty added to the midfield since the Utd game should be more than enough especially if he is the midfield with Omeonga, Newell & Allan and has McNulty, Doidge & Boyle up front. 3-1.
It won’t get movedQuote:

Fantastic draw. Can't take anything for granted but playing 3 lower league sides to get to Hampden is about as much as you could ask for.
With the Huns in town as well? Can’t see it.Quote:

Sunday- St Johnstone v Celtic

Is the Celtic in Europe on the Thursday? If so Premier sports won’t want both their Scottish cup games being played on the same day. Especially when the English league cup final is on that day.Quote:

Neither team can play the Sunday as the derby is on the Tuesday. The logical thing would be Hibs on the Friday night, Hearts on the SaturdayQuote:

We won’t play the Sunday because the derby is on the Tuesday. Hearts won’t play the Friday because The Rangers play the Wednesday before. Would be surprised if the police let us play the same day.Quote:

Is there not a case for the other tie (all SPL as it is) being televised?Quote:

Only seen ICT once this season on Alba, they humped Morton 5-0 in Inverness, but Morton were worse than hertz that day. They seem to be a bit inconsistent. We should win this tie though, Dundee Its are by far and away the best team in that league and we handled them well.
friday game under the floodlights, yes please
