If we beat Dundee in Tuesday night's re-arranged Scottish Cup 5th Round tie, we'll face an away trip to Queen of the South in the Quarter Finals.  Ya dancer!  At last, a decent cup draw and potentially great day out, and dare I say it a cracking opportunity to make it to Hampden for the semi-finals... 

If the Dundee game goes to a replay (assuming Tuesday's game goes ahead of course!) then it will take place at Dens Park the following Tuesday (12th).  The Quarter Finals are scheduled for March 8th and 9th. 


Following the re-scheduling of the Dundee game for Tuesday night, Ross McCormack, Marc Fitzpatrick and Mark Reynolds have all been withdrawn from the Scotland Under-21 squad taking part in a four-team tournament in Portugal.  And Stephen Craigan is expected to be released from the Northern Ireland squad for their friendly against Bulgaria on Wednesday.


Speaking of Ross McCormack, there's an article on him in today's Sunday Mail.  Looks like we'll definitely be saying goodbye to him at the end of the season.


In this BBC article, Mark McGhee says he is keeping an eye on developments at Derby County, where reports suggest Bob Malcolm has been released from his contract:
"I honestly don't know what the situation officially is with Bob, so until I know that I can't comment really except to say we did want to bring him in and that's not changed."
