Poll : who do you want in the semi-final?

[CaleyD]

Semis are definitely the weekend of 26/27th January 2013 as our match v Killie is to be re-arranged.

[12th Man]

Hampden but end of January not a good time for any fans to shell out on tickets and travel Perth maybe better but pretty sure its hampden.Tannadice great for me personally but no chance and it is a s**t ground anyway

Perhaps Santa might be delivering some, Im assuming the tickets would be on sale by then.

While Santa is at it he could also explain to the children why Celtic can go to Hampden but not us ( if i assume the SFA comment in todays paper is true ) if we eg Draw St Mirren, on a travel point of view Perth for travel for most is best but hardly the point

that said my son missed out on our last 2 visits to Hampden as he was at his grannies and also the player how often will they get the chance to play at Hampden I

f they do not warm the ballls all 4 are able to win a semi against any other

if its a Caley St Mirren final would they move it SFLs worst nightmare!!

did then complain at the 10 000 that were our semi at Hampden?

Once again the Yngwie has the rights of it.

9.6 In each tie in the Semi-Final Round of the League Cup Competition, after

paying match expenses, 5% of the net receipts will be retained by the

League and 20% of the remaining balance will be deducted and paid as

ground rent to the respective Clubs which provided the neutral venues. The

remaining receipts from both ties shall be pooled and divided equally among

the four competing Clubs.

9.7 In the Final Tie of the League Cup Competition, after paying match

Will the draw be live on SSN?

[TopSix]

Will the draw be live on SSN?

Not sure, but it's happening tomorrow at 1430. I'd quite like celtic in this round and hearts in the final.

[KingBeastie]

We must surely be due an easy draw by now? (hopefully... please!)

What are you talking about?! We've had lots of easy draws! (Except Stenny. Stenny was a struggle.)

[Yngwie]

It's about time we got drawn at home.

[Yngwie]

Incidentally for those who couldn't access the BBC highlights of our win at Ibrox, they are now up on the SFL website. And for those who could access them, watch them again anyway.

Ours is the first game and there is about 5 minutes of coverage.

Hearts!

[HumbersideDude]

At Easter Road

[KennySim93]

Inverness vs Hearts in the semi final being played at Easter Road? So pretty much a home game for Hearts then...

[Ten4]

So that`s a BYE into the final ? if its bye bye Hearts!

[jamie ictfc]

disgrace its in Edinburgh...should be in Perth, or Dunfermline

[ICTRoughi]

Can the club complain about this? Surely Tannadice or McDiarmid would have been fair.

[KingBeastie]

F**k it, we'll play wherever. And we will win.

That my whining fellow fans is all.

[Murchison]

I would imagine only Easter Road or Pittodrie could really be considered due to size. Tannadice is only 14000 and McDairmid is only just over 10000. From a selfish point of view i'm happy, as Easter Road is easy!

[TopSix]

I'm happy with Easter Road. I just hope the stadium will be able to accommodate all of the fans who want tickets. Correct to assume the match will be played on the Sunday since Celtic and St Mirren were drawn first?

According to the journos on twitter will be up to the tv companies who gets which day?

[TopSix]

Looks like it, OCG. I imagine it'll depend on Celtic's fixtures too in January. It looks like they may still be involved in European competition come the new year.

[Yngwie]

Hearts are in a precarious financial position and when the semis take place at the end of the January there is a chance that their squad could be weaker than at present.

In the last couple of days it looks like this has become a pretty likely scenario.

[RiG]

So basically, it's down to whatever day Sky would prefer to show St. Mirren v Celtic.

[bishbashbosh]

if we were first out of the hat we should push for game to be played at dingwall
