Given that both of these are on 3rd Sep & it is a 3 1/2 hour drive. Does sentiment come into it & LS doesn't play, you would also think most of his team mates will be at the dinner also. Or does NL remain professional & play a full strength team. Or is it the U 20s who turn out for this.

No doubt about it for me, stick the youngsters out.

Has to be the youngsters with maybe a few fringe players. We keep saying we're a premier league team in the championship. Well the premier league teams are under 20's so let's do the same.

He has already stated that he is sending a strongish team up to face Turrif. It will be a mix of first team players and under 20s. I'd expect shinnie and Graham to travel as they're just in the door and won't know Stevenson very well. Insall might get a run out too.

If it's moved to the Sunday expect a poor travelling crowd. Work and school on the Monday for many. Turrif will want this played on the Saturday.

For a social event that seems to have been planned on a day set aside for a cup tie? No chance. Originally Posted by underscore

We'll have three away on international duty. This will be moved to a midweek date I suspect.

We probably wouldn't take the entire first team up anyway, no reason to ask for postponement.... Originally Posted by Sir David Gray

We`ve known since we lost in Falkirk more than 3 months ago that we`d be in this tournament and I think for at least a couple of months that we`d start on weekend of 3rd/4th ( or have a league match like last season on international weekends ) so can`t really expect date to be changed . Have many happy memories of pre season games against Highland League teams in the 70s and 80s ( midweek in Dingwall , Nairn and Brora with smaller crowds then big crowds on Saturdays against Inverness teams ) and it`s a pity that this game may become devalued since it`ll be a big thing for Turiff and a great day out for Hibs fans . I suspect it may be televised on Friday or other midweek night which will mean a maximum of 100 Hibs fans ( if well-promoted could be well over 500 Hibs fans on a Saturday afternoon and more locals and neutrals ) .

Hibs aren't going to embarrass themselves by asking for a postponement of a game against Turriff United because they can't put there strongest team out. It's a big fixture for Turriff, a meaningless one for us. Originally Posted by Sir David Gray

As an aside Turriff would be near the top of my why bother visiting there list.Every gimmick hungry yob,
Digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us,
He'll die before he's sold.

I don't see why we'd risk any sorts of injuries to key players by sending them to this game in a *****y wee cup. Send the 20s and be done with it.

20s and fringe players would seem the sensible thing to do.

Anyone that needs game time should go. Fyvie, Shinnie, new goalie, Graham, Boyle, Forster, maybe even Holt.
The team selection shouldn't be influenced by the fact that there's a night out.

Went to a dog show there once. I said to a local that if my dog did not win I would drop it off at the sausage factory in Dyce on the way home. He took me seriously.
