Time doesnt stand for any man, or any team. With the 2008/09 season only completed and Ayr United fans and officials still taking in their play off win and promotion to the First Division, the draw for the 1st round of next seasons Alba Cup was an un-welcome reminder that nobody ban bask in the glow of victory for long.

The draw made today has paired Ayr United with 3rd Division Albion Rovers at Somerset Park on Satyrday 25th July in the South West Section.

Holders Airdrie United have been drawn at home against Partick Thistle with Inverness Caley Thistle, who were demoted from the Scottish Premier League, being handed a home tie against Montrose.

Other notable ties are the all-First Division meeting of Queen of the South and Livingston, and the Division Three clash between Queen's Park and Annan.
