The top seeded (number 1) club Celtic, away to top unseeded club (number 9) Ross County.
Ross County were also the top unseeded club when they won at Celtic Park, behind closed doors a couple of seasons ago.
Sevco got the lowest unseeded club ( number 16) at home and they will play on the Tuesday night, August 30th.
Celtic will play in Dingwall on the Wednesday because we play at Tannadice on the Sunday.
It means Sevco will have an extra day to prepare for the Glasgow Derby.

And operation "STOP ANGE" gets underway.

Yes Poet, our 1st CL match, will be the midweek after the Glasgow Derby.
It’s strange having to wait until August 31st to play our first competitive midweek fixture against Ross County.
Celtic will then play CL week 1 on September 6/ 7th and then the following week,
CL week 2 on September 13/ 14th.
The following midweek will be International matches.

Who knew, we would be away at a tough venue and they are home to utter s hit? And one less day to prepare for the Sevconian World beaters. Must be my paranoia kicking in.

You've no idea how deep this goes Buzz??.

Our league cup game was always going to be the Wednesday night, due to our Sly friends announcing the Tannadice match for the Sunday before.
I expect Ange will play a very strong lineup in the cup tie and keep up our momentum, going into the league fixture on the Saturday lunchtime.

It was a certainty we would drawn away, while they got a 'pimps' draw and the timing of that weeks matches proves the forces of evil exist; but feck it - We Never Stop!

The amount of paranoia at every little thing that happens is unreal man! Maybe we should create a Celtic conspiracy page. Some draws go for you and some against. It’s not like we drew Barcelona, now that would be a fix!
{Ed007's Note - It's the "away up to Dingwall or Aberdeen" patter that does my nut in, you never see Newcastle fans moaning about travelling to play Arsenal do you?}

Lovely wee place Dingwall. Great people, friendly little community club type ground surround by beautiful scenery. Last time I went there I could virtually shake hands with Frimpong as he passed me running up and down the wing. I thought it was a great day out (we won 4-1) .

If a cup game against Ross County is the best "Operation stop Ange" can muster then I think he'll just about survive lads.
