Don't know answer myself to be honest

Miss out on big cash in 1st Div at hands of dirty cheating local rivals for Scottish Cup glory and a European place as well? Hmmmmm

I'd take relegation if it meant a Scottish Cup win.

Seriously, can we be relegated and then win the Cup a couple of weeks later against a team like ICT or Aberdeen. No..........

That's the sort of team we are, it genuinely wouldn't surprise me if we were to do just that!

No way do we want to be replaced by the townies! The league is our bread and butter and championship status must be protected.

Agreed! Any place from 5th to 8th at the end of the season will do.
There is however the likely prospect given that we do remain in this league that next season will see us staring relegation in the face if current personnel, both playing and coaching remain at Stark's Park.

Too right, to win both major cups in my lifetime would be an outstanding achievement, and another wee European trip.

As has been said relegation and no cup wins is far more likely but as the question had been asked then winning the cups gets me vote easily. Crikey if we do stay up this year we will surely be among the favourites for relegation next season. We are Rovers and we will be relegated and promoted again, probably in the foreseeable future or 2 cups in the space of a 2 months after only 1cup after 130 years.

My answer is simple really losing to the cheats from townieland is not an option and in fact its my worst nightmare.Hopefully it doesnt come to that and we win both cup games.
