    Quarter Final Draw - Best/Worst case scenarios

    In order best to worst:-


    East Fife - Home
    Ayr - Home
    Falkirk - Home
    East Fife - Away
    St Mirren - Home
    Kilmarnock - Home
    Dundee United - Home
    Ayr - Away
    Falkirk - Away
    St Mirren - Away
    Dundee United - Away
    Kilmarnock - Away
    Celtic - Home
    Celtic - Away

    Don't know why but I'd rather go to Tannadice than Rugby Park yet would rather play Killie at ER than United.

    Is it just me or does an away trip seem more appealing?Both from the perspective of a better atmosphere, (either in an old skool ground like somerset park or in celtc park where we'll have a bigger allocation than if it was a league game) and because we havent won at home since February?Id fancy our chances of beating celtc more in glasgow than at ER somehow...

    That is my thoughts as well. We probably have a better chance of beating the non SPL teams if we play away.
    Is ER turning into the New Wembley for England? ....i.e. **** scared to play in front of too many of our own fans.

    East Fife away would IMO be our 2nd best draw.

    No. Some of us still have nightmares from 1984.

    Not a problem. We've averaged 5 goals a game in our home cup ties this season

    As do I. Sounds like an improvement on what we got though.

    seems am one of the only happy one's with celtic at home, better them at easter road rather than celtic park or hampden, IF we were to progress to the final on the likely chance we would cross them in the semi's or the final anyway, mybe am just to optimistic but with a big game like this could produce a great atmosphere and really drive the players forward.............and beat celtic..................then win the cup :cgwa
