Looks like my Killie tip is going pear shaped...2 down after 37 mins. Plenty of time left though!

If I could have given myself a red dot I would have, got them all the wrong way round And we both missed Stevenage

Does anyone know when the 5th round draw takes place? Appears to be a big secret as there is no info' about it on the SFA or other web sites. I even Googled it!

Anyone will do as long as its away...

Yes well done Stevenage and up yours Newcastle for getting rid of Chris Houghton

Wow..how close were Leeds...and, come to think of it, Elgin? Got Reading and Hibs/Ayr though. Hope some of you managed a few bob / winnings. The only one that was nowhere near (with Gers / Killie to come) was Millwall.

Beith 3-4 Airdrie United Airdrie were 0-4 after 47 mins only for Beith try a fight back. Gotta love the Cup eh? Beith v Airdrie

Just a hunch that TB will give Tuffey a game as he did in the league cup leaving Ryan on the bench.

Millwall @ 13/8 to beat Birmingham - The Blues of Birmingham are not having a good season. They will play a weakened side too no doubt. Leeds @ 9/1 to beat Arsenal - Leeds going well and will be up for it. Arsenal with have priorities elsewhere. Leeds did Man U last season by the way! Reading @ 7/5 to beat WBA - Again, WBA are having a bad run at the moment and will field a lot of reserve players. WBA lost at Ipswich in the League Cup a few weeks ago. Elgin @ 12/1 to beat ICT - Would hate to bet against my own side but you must admit it has potential. We are rubbish at home, no win in six and dodgy at the back...and we'll almost certainly be without Esson to bale us out. Elgin will be well up for it whereas our priorities will be on the SPL. Hope I'm wrong with this one. Hibs v Ayr draw @ 7/2 - There's always one draw so why not this one. Hibs are poor and I think Ayr will want it more. Killie @ 12/1 to beat Rangers - The price is an attraction here and Killie are on form just now. By the way, I'm crap at betting so take no notice...ok?

True...but Gary missed a few that could have got him a few more Legs which allowed Adrian to capitalise. AL's scoring was superb though.

That was a great final. Lewis was lethal. How different it would have been if Anderson could hit those doubles.

Am looking forward the final tonight. If these two produce the same form it'll be a cracker. Got to fancy the Scot to win it as he has been superb throughout.

Wee lack of concentration re '1st Scorer Opp', there were 15 winners here and these points were awarded accordingly. Details corrected above. I was listening to match 'on line' and Cox was booked early in the 2nd half. I must admit I never checked the BBC site for its recording and, yes, you are correct that it is missing. I have found a reference to the booking in The Scotsman match report which can be found here. Cox collected the game's first booking for upending Grainger on the left flank on 49 minutes as he attempted to burst onto Taylor's through pass. - The Scotsman Cheers Gringo
