    That'll be an interesting one. You can argue it was a genuine attempt to play the ball but given the position of the players, the chances of that tackle coming off were what, 1 in 10, 1 in 20? Removing the triple punishment is a good thing but I'd be pleasantly surprised if they don't tell us to sod off this time.

The Aberdeen game is a MUST WIN game because it's a Cup tie and all Cup ties in the League Cup are must win. We're not playing 1970s Brazil, we are playing a Scottish Premiership side at home and we should be looking to win, simple as that. Tonight's result was great, but it's done with, we now need to concentrate on the next round and getting through.
    Hard to argue with that.

    We look to have a decent keeper in Trevor Carson. If that was Samson in goal last night we would have lost that game. Impressive save right at the death. Also have a decent back up in Griffiths it has to be said.
