One of

the many topics of conservation at Peterhead on Saturday, remembering that it was another away cup tie, was when was the last time we actually had a cup tie at home? There were various stabs at the answer but no one really was able to put their finger on it. Since then off course I've had a look and Peterhead was number 5 and Partick will be number 6 in a row. Our last home tie in any of the competitions was on the 25th October 2008 against Albion Rovers in the second round of the Scottish Cup. Since then the run has been Stranraer Challenge Cup 1, Partick Thistle League Cup 1, Civil Service Strollers Scottish Cup 2 and Ross County Scottish Cup 3, and the 2 this season, giving us our 6 away in a row. Factor into that the trips to Stranraer, Dingwall and Peterheed and we're long overdue for one at Shielfield.
