Scotty has major surgery tomorrow. Please join me in wishing him all the very best - may his consultant/surgeon be totally successful and Scotty have a good outcome and thus enjoy a Happy Christmas followed by a healthy peaceful relaxing 2019. My love to you Scotty and to your nearest and dearest too. Liz S x

Botheration etc, I’m working until 7.30pm. Enjoyed last under 18s cup game. I hope they do extremely well even without me and my rattle, making my usual fool of myself.

Already in Ayrshire for a long weekend, so I’ll be there.

Plenty time to get through traffic problems on A9, plus Glasgow Friday eve rush hour traffic, plus at least one stop for food. What time do you suggest otherwise? Would you like to arrive late or in plenty of time for kick off.

Well seen you weren't at the game, Vigurs was obviously sent on the pitch to try to take our best player out of the game and his tackles on Polly were pure thuggery.

Nearer the date, I could have a spare seat in my car if you don't mind a lady driver! I could also take you straight out to the airport if that's suitable.

Agreed - where's Mikey Diamonds flag nowadays? Incidentally, still on cloud 9 after last nights 89th minute goal!

Great to see ICT "its our time" logo on Stagecoach buses going around town.

Well at the Semi Final, I thought Scott Brown warranted at least 3 yellow cards, instead of the one he got. He is a cynical tackler and always will be.

Went past the shop today and already its looking good. Merchandise on show inside. Great initiative. Well done everyone involved.

I estimated I would have to queue for a couple of hours and arrived at 2pm. By ten to four, eighteen tickets bought and a happy fan. It was a nice day and there was lots of banter between fans who knew each other and those who didn't. After all, queues are normal everywhere in the UK and if you don't want to queue for such an important game, then don't. Just wait until later in the week, or buy on line - the option is there. A nice touch for the Club to hand out details of the stadium so fans could see the various sections and options - well done.

Great news indeed and puts Inverness Caley Thistle again in the Spotlight, for all the right reasons. Well done Yogi. Many many congratulations.

Meet up in the Muirton Suite at St Johnstone - stovies are excellent and its a great way to meet up with other fans.

Wasn't impressed with Denayer in the Semi. Our Ryan much much better.

And I was 70 last year!!!!

In all this kerfuffle, has no-one thought there may be more than a little money involved backstage, allegedly ? I may be banned from the Forum for this but, I am a cynic and ...... who decides who is on the deciding committee tomorrow? how many "friends/acquaintances" do they have in the Celtic boardroom, how many "freebies" do they get over a season, do they "declare" all these instances? This is all "allegedly" but..... I really do feel it is like an "old boys club" or similar - if you don't fit in, then tough and you are out. The Committee tomorrow better have a lot of balls, or else they will be missing some, soon.

NO NO NO - never again give ANY money to them, never never never.

Count me in too, with any monies required. Josh - stay strong - we are all behind you and, ignore these morons who shouldn't be allowed a vote or to enter any football stadium in the UK.

Despicable that Celtic have such power over the SFA and their "Compliance Officer". Makes a mockery of football and referees. I do hope our lawyer has as much power as Dundee United's one - if Josh has to miss the Final, then there is no justice in football for the "minor" teams. When ICT appeal a red card, it is rejected more often than not, when Celtic (and more recently for blatant issues - Dundee United)(shifty Cifcti for example), then it is rescinded, so it is blatantly obvious that there is one rule for the teams with loadsamoney and another rule for the supposed "also rans ". So unfair for ICT to be victimised in such a way. What about their goalie assault on Ofere (no word of that), what about Scott Brown should have had a second card and thus a red (no word of that). Oh but they play for Celtic. So, nothing done or said. I rest my case. Furious.

Or going back, it took weeks and weeks for Craig Dargo to score any goals.

Just to clarify they are Red Cross not paramedics Having had a very serious emergency a couple of years ago, at Aberdeen, when similar Red Cross volunteers were required to attend to my nephew, and found wanting, because their "mobiles had not been charged" and thus they could not call on the Doctor required, if it was not for Naelifts my nephew could have died or been seriously brain damaged. Since then I have had no faith in volunteers and had had full training in emergency first aid and would be able to help my nephew, or any other fan, in any future situation. My eternal thanks to Naelifts, if it wasn't for him that day, Aberdeen FC would have been in very serious trouble. I believe, since then, all mobiles for first aiders etc at football stadiums have to be checked and I do hope this continues for the future. However, I do think those on Saturday were a bit slow to attend to Dean, who was obviously in severe pain.

I don't think you have a hope in h..l of that outcome. Maybe I am cynical but I think a certain Club Chairman's megabucks may be involved somewhere, but, don't quote me and I name no names. Umpteen appeals upheld ? How many of ours have ever been upheld - even when genuine evidence - once again money talks. Ciftci is a cheat, a thug and a disgrace to Scottish football and the sooner he goes back to Turkey, the better.

Many thanks RR TV - I missed most of match due to prior engagement - but these 11 minutes are very worthwhile watching and better than any BBC TV have done. Again, well done RR TV.

Bother! I cannot go on Tuesday night. Botheration and other stronger words!

Only once in my life have I wished real ill will on an absolute rotter and, it happened! Made some of my friends look at me in a different light! I now wish real ill will on that thug - he is no advert for sport and/or sportsmanship and a dreadful example for young players who try their best for their Club. May he come to grief soon, in any way possible - come on Celtic - give him a real do-ing where it hurts.
