Not a great draw by any means but it could have been worse, we could have got Brechin or Ross County away from home!
The timing of the tie means we will play two games in a row at Palmerston, although the league game will take place ten days later due to international games.
Saints last met Queen of the South in this competition at Love Street three years ago at the semi-final stage. The game was a thriller with the visitors winning 5-3 on their way to the trophy. Let's hope they don't do that again!
