    Those taking part in the match between Kincorth and Dee Athletic at the Inverdee pitches in Aberdeen got a shock as the game went to penalties, the Celtic team bus travelling to Peterhead stopped, everyone got out and watched the penalty shootout.

    Just read that on twitter, that's brilliant. :D

    If Pat Nevin is on tv tomorrow I think I might cry.

    At least I know he doesn't appear in Die Hard 3

    Don't get the joke?

    Slight correction, it was Dee Amateurs in the North of Scotland cup - was 5-5 AET and finished 10-9 to Kincorth on penalties.

    So will Alistair do the quadruple tomorrow?

    Anyone else on this thread at the league cup semi final when the penalties went through both teams and back to the first penalty takers again? Despite United losing it's one of the best games I've ever been at.

    agree, seems a terrible angle to be filming from also
    That's the usual camera gantry at Dens. It's no lower than the one at some SPL grounds, such East End Park and the Caledonian Stadium.

    BBC Sport Scotland can't afford HD Cameras while they employ so many ex-bears and Traynor and that's before Nevin appears.
    It was an HD OB unit.

    The game wasn't shown in HD because neither BBC1 HD nor BBC HD are regionalised.

    I see Talbot had an equaliser controversially ruled out in stoppage time :(

    From what I saw last night it looked onside as well.

    Hearts should've had another penalty as well.

    guess its just been a while since I have seen Dundee on the tv as doesnt usually look as bad on SFL Tv if they have highlights from Dens Park.

    How long before Ian Crocker realises Fraser Forster is not in the Celtic goal?

    Laughed when Davie Provan said that Forster was quick to get it ... must have turned into Superman to make it from the dugout in time :D

    Only 13 goals to go for me to win the whole Cup prediction league :o

    Nigerian 20 year old attacking midfielder Rabiu Ibrahim is training with Celtic in the hope to win a deal, he left PSV at the end of last month after joining them from Sporting Lisbon.

    You should have went, you might have got to see Celtic in the flesh.

    Good performance today, particularly Aluko who looks better with every game. Need a new striker in though. Kerkar has surprisingly good technique too.

    Arbroath 0-4 Rangers
    Mark was surprisingly the only player to predict a 4-0 win for Rangers. With Mark predicting the correct score in a game featuring 4 or more goals Mark scores 7 points.

    Everybody else scored 2 except Uriah who predicted a 1-1 draw.

    Peterhead 0-3 Celtic

    Pedrok was the only player to predict 3-0 to the Scottish Cup holders, he scores 5.

    Everybody else bags 2 points, Uriah's 14-0 prediction thankfully didn't come in so the competition shall continue running, tbf his 14-0 prediction was the only chance he had of winning the competition ;)

    New table:

    Pedrok - 36
    Celt1987 - 30
    Hibs-kid - 25
    bhoy07 - 24
    Mark - 23
    Uriah - 20
    DUNDEEBOY - 20
    Caltonfan - 18

    Pedrok doubles his lead to 6 points whilst Mark rises a couple of places courtesy of his 7 pointer at Gayfield.

    Pedrok now has 4 correct results.

    As far as I can see there are 3 replays:

    Dunfermline v ICT
    Hamilton v St Mirren
    Kilmarnock v Dundee

    We will be predicting the replays also with the same scoring system. All games will be 90 minute score only however anybody predicting a draw can choose to GAMBLE half of the points by choosing a winner after AET: Any gamble prediction that comes in points will double.

    Eg: Dunfermline 1-1 ICT - Gamble Dunfermline

    If it's 1-1 and Dunfermline win AET they would score 10 points. If it's 1-1 and ICT win AET then they score only 2.5 points. Was thinking double or quits to avoid .5 scores but think that's a tad unfair. Hope that makes sense. :)
