Hamilton Accies skipper Brian Easton insists the club have plenty of positives to take into their league campaign after narrowly missing out on the last 16 of the Premier Sports Cup.
The New Douglas Park side were held to a 1-1 draw by Queen's Park on Saturday and even though they earned a bonus point with a 5-3 penalty shootout win, their second place finish with eight points in Group H wasn't enough to claim one of the three best runners-up spots.
After opening their campaign with a disappointing 3-0 defeat to Dundee, Accies recorded wins over Stranraer and Forfar before the stalemate with the Spiders and Easton reckons their response to that first match gives him reason for optimism ahead of Saturday's Championship opener at home to Morton.
