Was just looking at the new format for the league cup and I must say that I am really not impressed with it.

There are going to be so many meaningless games and they are going to be played far to early in the season. Not only that the teams with European football get an advantage as they get automatic qualification for next round.

Whoever, thought of this idea needs sacked immediately (has SFA written all over it) .

All we had to do was beat hibs to have that advantage. but couldn't do it so why complain? that's all people seem to do on here now.

My main gripe is the number of meaningless games.

28 May 2016 10:20:01
If anything these "meaningless" games will help some of the new signings find their feet.

28 May 2016 11:15:56
if rangers are playing are these games still "meaningless"
I have said already games like these will show
how true our support really are
I also agree "meaningless" games given young players
a chance in the first team
I hope we are not going to use new signings as an excuse
if we do not hit ground running.

The SFA are clueless, this was a kneejerk reaction to making changes for the sake of making changes. They just don't have the balls to try summer football and this was meant to be the next best thing.

It's ALL F'ing pointless.

I thought it was the spfl that decided what happened in this cup and not the SFA. I have to agree with one of the other posters I think it's not a bad thing and will give new players they chance to find their feet. Think the game against Motherwell is a good test of how we are progressing and the other games against the lower league teams gives players like Burt, Murdoch and Thompson a chance to play.

i think it is a good thing for us. We will have as many as nine or ten new players / players returning from Loan Spells so it gives us a number of games to get the team ready for the SPL. No reason why we can't win our section and progress to the next round with a team of players that are match fit. Some of our competitors in the league will not have that benefit as they will go out of Europe in the preliminary rounds!

At least their trying new things, that's the only way to see if something works, btw I'm no spfl lover, not at all but sometimes change is good.

This was the original format in the 70s and 80s of the League Cup which was binned at the time. for too many meaningless games; fact, not opinion. Yet again, the forward thinking SFA earning their exorbitant wages by coming out with 'new' ideas to regenerate Scottish football.

Interestingly, 8 groups and only one with 2 Premier teams in it!

The way the seedlings worked we were always going to be in the group with another Premiership side. As I said think it will be a good thing and against the smaller teams some of the younger players should be given a chance.

In our game here the rich get richer an poor get poorer. do u think its meaningless games for lower league clubs that will get a major cash injection each year playing teams they don't normaly play against. if the games are meaningless then let's throw some kids on and ask them if its meaningless. good idea in my eyes hopefully some of the smaller teams will flourish with this new cash.
