It was an interview on TV with the sfa a few weeks back . It was quite clear that they valued it to ntended it to be completed early in the new seasonQuote:

Without giving their mental ramblings enough credit to actually count how many goals they’ve scored, they can’t have scored more than us surely? We scored 6 against Dundee Utd(I’ve counted the replay since we’re being ridiculous anyway), 4 against BSC and 5 against ICT. In fact, just give us the trophy now I think of it.Quote:

Attention seeking to appease their hordes.Quote:

Even then I’d reckon there’s a good chance it would take place behind closed doors. The cup this season should be binned as far as I’m concerned.Quote:

Actually couldn't make out which way they voted based on the statement. Seemed a bit Budge like.Quote:

The world has changed beyond recognition since 'a few weeks back.' There's not a chance the SFA could commit to that now.Quote:

Erm. It does though. Clubs couldve signed free agents before the semi's were originally due to take place like we did with Logan which couldve changed the course of those semis. This is the exact same situation.Quote:

Delay it as long as they can, so supporters can goQuote:

European place will go to 4th place league position.Quote:

In a thread discussing our elimination from the cup in a penalty shoot out against Dundee United in 2014, someone argued that, instead of a penalty shoot out, matches should be based purely on match statistics. The poster, who in this present thread is pro the use of statistics to decide the winner of this year’s competition replied back then :
“Would you be complaining about penalty shoot-outs had we won on Wednesday night?
It's the best and most exciting way to resolve a cup tie.
Leave it to stats? Erm...no ta”
Interesting.
