So it all starts over again.

Another round of Saturdays spent in anticipation/dread to be folowed by delight or despair depending on the result.

Sons kick off against Bonnyrigg Rose at New Dundas Park this afternoon. We drew with them only a couple of weeks ago in the League Cup and might have been playing them again in ten days if they hadn’t lost to Kilmarnock B in the Challenge Cup. As it is we’ve got a trip to Ayrshire (or wherever Kilmarnock B play their home games) now.

But this is the real stuff.

I can’t imagine we’ll start off winning seven games in a row again, though.

One of the things that happened while I was away was the draw for the group stage of the League Cup (apparently now called the Viaplay Cup.)

We play Airdrieonians, Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Bonnyrigg Rose and Dundee, the first and last away, the other two at home.

I suppose we’ll be out of contention after two games as usual.
