Ruling issued by SFA says club solicitors argued that as one or more officials had seen the incident the panel had no right to rule on the matter. This was accepted by the panel and the case dismissed.

Over to you SFA to find out why the compliance officer thought he had the right to give a red card.

In an interview with STV Ryan saying he wants to stay at Inverness and learn his trade despite interest from down south. Old head on young shoulders and very refreshing to hear.

All together now........

You put your right arm in,

Your right arm out............

Justice prevails. Let's now enjoy our day in the sun.

Leaving at the end of season. Contract to be terminated by mutual consent. Rumour at Kilmarnock not far off the mark then.

Rooney was phenomenal. Every penalty i think i ever saw him take was right in the corner shaving the post

Except the one in Dingwall but he did net the rebound

I am as furious and sickened as anyone but I do think "justice" is not the word for this. I think we all agree if the ref sees it it's a sending off and a penalty. My problem with this is it is the officials that have not done their job but it is not them the SFA are publicly condeming. If every hand ball that isin't seen goes to the SFA disciplinary board the queue would stretch from Hampden to TCS.

Sportsound saying Yogi's comments on the radio last night may have condemned Joss to be banned. Yogi said it was a hand ball and Josh should have been sent off.

Twitter (I know) saying Nick close to signing PCA with the travellers over the bridge. Not happy about lack of game time. Southend also interested.

Don't know if anyone's mentioned it before but I was almost crying when I saw and heard the Celtic fan who was picked for the half time shoot out. He was like a character from Trainspotting.

The first Scottish club plays the second week of July. The cup winners the round after that.

You put your right arm in.

Your right out, in, out, in out,

You put the Celtic out,

You do the Josh Meekings and

Turn around,

We put the Celtic out, out, out.

Any chance of appealing Warren's red?

Unfortunately no as it is two yellows in the cup this season.

What's the difference between Ronnie Delia and Viagra...........

Viagra gets you past a semi.

Not at all. Would you care to expand on your hostility?

Hampden is the National Stadium and when available has always been used. It is a honour for any player and fan to go and play in or watch a Scottish Cup Final and wether there are 5000 or 50000 there it's where the cup final should be played. No hostility just think it's a bizzar post.

By the way the comment was about the thread not your post.

Brian Graham got a ban for diving though?

Simulation is classed as serious foul play

The answer is no. Compliance Officer can only deal with violent or serious foul play and handball is not classed as either of those.

This is a p155 take this post isn't it?

WE CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay it's time to start getting properly nervous and excited. Travelling down today, meeting up with family flying up from Birmingham, a night out in Glasgow and the semi-final tomorrow. So nervous about night out in Glasgow and excited about the game. SuperCaleyGoBallisticCelticAre..........possibly the better team but we can still win.

I like Marley and if he stays I will be very happy but........ We have been here before and as far as I am aware we are going to have our best season ever ( in terms of league placings and at least a cup semi final). We have lost players like Bingham, Mann, Robson, Wyness, Dods, Rooney, Hayes, Rankin, Cowie, Wilson to name a few and always seem to come back stronger and better.

Referee for Sunday is Steven McLean

What stand is everyone going for? I'm guessing there will only be around 1500-2000 of us so surely it would be better to be closer together rather than spread out!?

Okay I'll bite. What makes you think we will take that number of fans?

I'd be delighted to see Tremarco become first choice LB. It could be argued that he's perhaps not as versatile as Shinnie when it comes to being played in other positions (although I say that on the basis we've never seen him played elsewhere), but as a LB he's every bit as capable, IMO.

He was played at centre half a couple of times last season and did well in the games. He also played in an advanced left sided player on a couple of occasions (not so great) but the whole team suffered at that time.

Oh and on today's referee. That made Gollum look world class. Scott Brown was getting away with murder and Drapes was being targeted by their players and respect to him for keeping his cool. One thing I didn't like was a blatant dive by Ryan Christie. I know other teams do it but I don't want ICT to become a Divedee United.
