## Resource

The League Cup group stage is complete and the knockout ties are set, but not without plenty of drama along the way. Charlotte Cohen is joined by former Dundee and Ross County manager Tony Docherty and Arbroath midfielder Ryan Flynn to analyse Dunfermline's impressive progress under Neil Lennon, St Johnstone's shock exit after defeat to East Fife and what it means for the newly-promoted side heading into the Premiership season. The panel also discuss a mouth-watering last-16 draw, including Dundee United's home tie against Celtic and an Ayrshire derby between Kilmarnock and Ayr United. Elsewhere, there's debate over Celtic's transfer business, Aberdeen's encouraging start under Stephen Robinson, Rangers' ongoing rebuild and why young players like Finlay Curtis and Alex Lowry could have important roles to play in the months ahead.
