Mind that gemme well, walked fae Craigneuk and back....changed days. One of them scored 4 that day I'm sure. Had got to Airbles Rd on the way back when the Motherwell mini bus with the players passed me and my mate. All I could wiz give the bus the fingers to say thanks a lot guys. Never quite sure if I wiz getting a V sign or a friendly wave back

He came he scored he made us happy.

He could "do a Colin O'Neil" who came on as a sub in the 91 cup final despite barely able to run after an op.

Celtic went down that route in recent years then the phrase "honest mistake" was born. Not much honesty last night.

I watched the Scotland-Australia rugby game on Sat and the use of going to the video referee was great. Did not affect the flow of the game and ensured that the right decision is arrived at every time. Also, the ref is mic'd up and can hear him speak to the video ref. For the red card, the ref pulls BOTH captains over and the offending player and explains why he is sending him off. No dissent whatsoever. Simple, effective. How about it football?

Yeah time for the Record and/or Sun to come up with "Rodgers pondering move for Moult" in Sat's paper.

Pedro not needing to concern himself with the final? Check

WHY NOT US? That.

We'll be calling that a "Hartley turn" many seasons from now

Ditto. It will be either Majorca or Hampden for me

Correct, the ref will always have a straight on view of the goalmouth. Unless the ball is in the pie stall in the Cooper Stand, the decision will pretty much be in the hands of the linesman who should have a decent side-on view. Don't know if there's any players obscuring his view was there?

It was really weird, I was driving back from work so I'm listening on DAB which has the Celtic commentary on. I know that game was running late but when it ended it then switched mid-sentence to them summing up some other game and it then became apparent I'd missed them summarising the Motherwell win,wiz raging. Was like some radio ham had control of Sportsound.

I was at that game at Tynecastle, thought it was the esteemed Mr Levein that got Cusack sent off. Only time in my life I've written to a footballer to say don't worry Nick that arsehole Levein was a disgrace that day getting you sent off.

Think Walter Kidd is the man to take care of that.....

Not my decision but I've no idea why the club appealed Dunne's Ross County red card. Clearly bundled over a player in front of goal. Given that club probably have some ex-ref on a retainer to advise them on appeals and it's £1000 a shot, it's all the more surprising.

From BBC Post-match reaction Motherwell manager Stephen Robinson: "We got the performance against Rangers but not the result, but we got both tonight and I think we deserved to get through to the semi final. Has Robinson been mis-quoted there? Save it for a few weeks

Long way off but I'll be bringing my "Killie minded" pal to the Killie home game in Sep. I'm not a member so would we both be able to get in there? If not is JD's next best option? He's not been at Fir Park since getting lifted as a 9 year old so he tells me so promises to be on best behaviour

Guys are work are telling me "oooh the English fixtures are out" and I'm like "who cares?". Fake news. Real news is when our fixtures are out. All roads lead to Hampden July 15th.

Dundee? Let's target Killie, 3 points and 3 goals in it.

I'm firmly in the "grass over plastic" bandwagon. Plastic pitches should not be allowed in professional football. Saturday probably depends on whether Accies have the nerve/bottle with the extra pressure on them now.

From what I could see from POD stand, looked like there was blood on his boot (?) no idea if that was a foot or ankle injury drawing blood. Ref immediately stopped the game (we had the ball) and got him off, he tried to clean it up but wasn't allowed on so they got a sub on.

You can see the referee's hand go up indicating offside so indirect feee kick. He will then be saying to the linesman put your flag up so it's a clearer indication to everyone. It's rare but it does happen that the referee gives the decision first.
