Goalkeeper Lyndon Tas was signed on loan from Hearts on the day of the game and saved a penalty in the shootout after a 1-1 draw at Stair Park. However, the tie had originally been scheduled for the previous Saturday and was called off because of a waterlogged pitch. "This will come as an immense disappointment to all our supporters, staff, volunteers and players, particularly in view of the incredible effort to win our tie with Queen's Park and the rewards that a tie against Rangers would bring," Stranraer added. Stranraer have lost once in 12 outings, moving up to fourth in League 2 and a possible place in the promotion play-offs. Queen's Park sit bottom of Scotland's second tier and were also knocked out of the Challenge Cup quarter-finals after a penalty shoot-out at home to Raith Rovers.
