:02:04. > :02:10.game of the day was Dundee United against Rangers who, because of a
:02:10. > :02:16.boycott, only had a few hundred fans there. So it was a totally
:02:16. > :02:20.tangerine Tannadice. Arguably the most eagerly
:02:20. > :02:23.anticipated tie of the fifth round. Not just of what may or may not
:02:23. > :02:28.happen on the pitch, but because of what has been said between these
:02:28. > :02:32.clubs before the draw was made, and what has been written since. There
:02:32. > :02:39.is no love lost between Dundee United and Rangers these days,

:04:51. > :04:58.barged his way through, and Neil Alexander could do nothing about it.
:04:58. > :05:05.The start to a football match you dream of. Johnny Russell put Dundee

:05:15. > :05:23.He is not going to get that. This is a decent response from Rangers,

:17:17. > :17:27.than that for Jackie McNamara, the manager. Jon Daly scored with a
:17:27. > :17:31.

:17:53. > :18:00.What is your take on the match as a whole? I think the first half was a
:18:00. > :18:08.bit dangerous. The second half, I thought they were slightly better.
:18:08. > :18:17.There were few problems in terms of position. Have used a quicker goal

:18:36. > :18:41.It must have been difficult for you coming in on Wednesday and not

:18:51. > :18:52.
:18:52. > :19:02.difficult for you? I think so. You do not want to change too many
:19:02. > :19:07.
:19:07. > :19:11.things because it might confuse them. I think it worked well.
:19:11. > :19:18.Johnny Russell, two goals today. You must have been delighted not to
:19:18. > :19:27.lose him! I was delighted. He is a tremendous talent. I was so
:19:27. > :19:36.delighted he did not move on just now. Canice Dundee United team won
:19:36. > :19:46.the Scottish Cup, do you think? Ashe can at this Dundee United team
:19:46. > :19:50.
:19:50. > :19:55.win. I do not see why not. thing I have about Rangers is, they
:19:55. > :19:59.are not going to be the Rangers of old. It was quite obvious today
:19:59. > :20:03.they are a distance away from that. They have some players that are
:20:04. > :20:10.capable of playing at that level, but it is a very unbalanced group.
:20:10. > :20:20.Most of them did not play particularly well today. It is very
:20:20. > :20:24.
:20:24. > :20:32.unbalanced. Half of that team have experienced SPL experience.
:20:33. > :20:41.Aviemore would have been important today was a good performance. They
:20:41. > :20:51.do have some very good players. When you lose a goal at 15 seconds,

:20:57. > :21:07.it is difficult to get back in the game. The there in the first moment,

:21:35. > :21:45.make a good start to the game. The it was a breathless that to their
:21:45. > :21:45.
:21:45. > :21:55.game. This may have knocked confidence it out of United. It was
:21:55. > :21:56.
:21:56. > :22:05.a decent effort. The 60 seconds into the game! The rest of the
:22:05. > :22:15.first half, that was it for me. It totally belonged to Dundee. Dundee
:22:15. > :22:17.
:22:17. > :22:23.United were a constant attacking threat. I think Rangers should
:22:23. > :22:33.probably have got a goal where, on any other day. That could very
:22:33. > :22:33.
:22:33. > :23:33.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 77 seconds
:23:33. > :23:43.the I take nothing away from Jon Daly. He was superb. It was very
:23:43. > :23:44.
:23:44. > :23:53.special. It is a flick down and an aim. They were at the top of their
:23:53. > :23:59.game. A comeback from Rangers never looked likely. To force your way
:23:59. > :24:02.back into the game, it is difficult, and there were not enough in the
:24:02. > :24:12.Rangers team who could play at that level. They do have some good
:24:12. > :24:14.
:24:14. > :24:24.players. It never materialised. looks OK to like Dundee United took
:24:24. > :24:26.
:24:26. > :24:32.their foot off the gas a bit. A sometimes, when there is a 1-0 lead,
:24:32. > :24:42.do you go for it? Some team say, we will hold back. You can then go to
:24:42. > :24:47.
:24:47. > :24:56.panic stations. Stevens was brilliant in the first half.
:24:57. > :25:02.Russell was as well. Rangers certainly held their own for 20

:25:14. > :25:23.Johnnie Russell's second. -- the goal which removed any doubt.
:25:23. > :25:29.was a composed finish. Rangers had an opportunity to win that. United

:40:48. > :40:54.well in the first half. But Craig Samson, all the way through the
:40:54. > :40:58.game, was absolutely fantastic. It is not just about strikers scoring

:41:50. > :41:56.the better side in the first half. He will be disappointed, Maclean,
:41:56. > :42:00.because he is a good player. Goals change games, and if you don't take
:42:00. > :42:05.your chances, you leave yourself open to being hit on the counter-

:43:20. > :43:25.will always have a chance of winning games now with that threat
:43:25. > :43:35.at the top end of the pitch. And he is getting reminders of what the
:43:35. > :43:37.
:43:37. > :43:41.dressing room is all about. He will need to learn to take wind-ups. He
:43:41. > :43:47.can shove off all these players at the same time, and the fact that he
:43:47. > :43:54.is also interchangeable as well. He started left on previous games, but
:43:54. > :44:01.he looks more settled now centrally. But if you have got two players of
:44:01. > :44:07.that kind of physique, you don't need great balls up to them. Out of
:44:07. > :44:15.nothing, he created that. You need players who can create goalscoring
:44:15. > :44:20.chances from little sense. He looks a really exciting player, no doubt
:44:21. > :44:26.about it. It is four goals in three different competitions in seven

:44:35. > :44:40.started coming in. That is where strikers want to live, and he
:44:40. > :44:48.naturally gets himself into position. This is my Didier Drogba
:44:48. > :44:58.moment for him. He doesn't panic. That is what you want to see from a
:44:58. > :45:02.
:45:02. > :45:06.striker. Coming from a different country and culture, playing in a
:45:06. > :45:13.huge game, and you score a goal early in the game, the confidence
:45:13. > :45:16.goes right through. He is obviously a talented kid. He could have

:46:01. > :46:08.-- and let's seat the best action goal. Falkirk are delighted the
:46:08. > :46:18.transfer window is now closed. 60 seconds after, Forfar had the
:46:18. > :46:19.
:46:19. > :46:29.chance to get right back into this match. Stephen Kingsley tripped
:46:29. > :46:31.
:46:31. > :46:35.somebody, giving a chance. Iain Campbell did what he usually does,
:46:35. > :46:44.and tee with the very real chance of making a claim for a place in
:46:44. > :46:53.the quarter-finals of the Scottish cop. Midway through the second half,
:46:53. > :46:59.Stewart Murdoch scored. Like every goal hunger striker, Lyle Taylor
:46:59. > :47:08.claimed it was actually he then got the goal. The state of the pitch
:47:08. > :47:18.was getting no better. With 15 minutes to go, another goal. David
:47:18. > :47:35.
:47:35. > :47:42.rounded the keeper. It looked certain to be 4-1, but the
:47:42. > :47:50.goalkeeper rescued his side here. By this time, the Falkirk challenge
:47:50. > :48:00.was all but over. In the 83rd minute, it really was all over. Now
:48:00. > :48:19.
:48:19. > :48:26.Alford loss of three is to pass the ball -- our philosophy is to pass
:48:26. > :48:36.the ball. We stood by our beliefs and philosophy. In the end, we take
:48:36. > :48:54.
:48:54. > :49:04.them out and wore them down. A very the goalkeeper here. Jonathan
:49:04. > :49:06.
:49:06. > :49:16.ravage somehow failed to score. -- Jonathon Routledge. It looked like
:49:16. > :49:22.
:49:22. > :49:28.it might not be Hamilton's day. The attack floundered to nothing. The
:49:28. > :49:38.long-haired striker on loan is on good form. He would have his moment.
:49:38. > :49:51.
:49:51. > :49:58.Six minutes into the second half, after his fresh air shot. What
:49:58. > :50:08.about Jonathon Routledge after his miss? He would score as well. He
:50:08. > :50:26.
:50:26. > :50:33.defeat in a row. It just was not their day. Andy Kirk there.
:50:33. > :50:43.Dunfermline were out. Hamilton a bathroom, for the first time since
:50:43. > :50:52.
:50:52. > :50:57.That is a big blow. Dunfermline were fragile, financially. It is a
:50:57. > :51:07.big bloke in just about every way you can imagine. -- it is a big
:51:07. > :51:10.
:51:10. > :51:16.blow. He they will probably have counting that money, and they need
:51:16. > :51:26.that money. They could have been three or four goals today, quite
:51:26. > :51:35.
:51:35. > :51:45.clearly. He Hamilton defended well. Steven May, he has real talent.
:51:45. > :52:04.
:52:04. > :52:10.Lyle Taylor scored two, he reckoned he scored three, and I can sense
:52:10. > :52:15.sympathy from view. I do not think it is sympathy, I think he has
:52:15. > :52:25.scored three. He definitely touch that all! You can see from his
:52:25. > :52:33.
:52:33. > :52:41.reaction. He knows that is coming from the striker. They have picked
:52:41. > :52:51.up a good player in Lyle Taylor, haven't they? A yes, and still very
:52:51. > :52:52.
:52:52. > :54:04.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 77 seconds

:56:28. > :56:30.
:56:30. > :56:40.is finished. That is a blow. Roberts is a good replacement, but
:56:40. > :56:44.
:56:44. > :56:54.Richie Foran is a key player. Andrew Shinnie. That was then
:56:54. > :57:03.

:57:13. > :57:48.

:58:09. > :58:15.hamstring. Further bad news for Inverness, having already lost
:58:15. > :58:25.Richie Foran to injury. They do not want to lose Andrew Shinnie. Such a

:00:00. > :00:28.
:00:28. > :00:33.Injury worries for Kilmarnock. He looks to be holding his hamstring
:00:33. > :00:39.much as Andrew Shinnie was earlier. His team-mate put the ball out of
:00:39. > :00:49.play, and now Kilmarnock will have to replace an injured player. He
:00:49. > :00:56.
:00:56. > :01:06.was just out muscled full-ball -- to replace him. So deadly last

:05:14. > :05:21.heading into the quarter-finals of the William Hill Scottish Cup! A
:05:21. > :05:29.beautiful play from the striker. Ross Barber's shot may or may not
:05:29. > :05:35.have been heading towards the goal. But it found the back of the net.
:05:35. > :05:43.And time has been called. There is the hero of the afternoon, Paul
:05:43. > :05:47.Heffernan. He has made the day of the Kilmarnock fans. They will see
:05:47. > :05:57.their side progressed to the quarterfinal of the Scottish Cup
:05:57. > :06:01.
:06:01. > :06:06.for only the third time since they Delighted with the two goals, and
:06:07. > :06:13.delighted I got through to the next round. It was a shame for Cillian
:06:14. > :06:22.Sheridan and his hamstring. We got the result in the end, but it was
:06:22. > :06:29.hard, hard work. Losing Richie Foran and Andrew Shinnie, it
:06:29. > :06:33.probably harmed their chances. didn't score, which was unusual,
:06:33. > :06:39.but we got in good positions and had a lot of opportunities to shoot
:06:39. > :06:43.and cross. The final third has been our strength this season. It is
:06:43. > :06:48.hard, but if you look at the injuries and the programme we have
:06:48. > :06:54.had this week and the travelling, that hasn't helped. The last eight
:06:54. > :06:58.of the Scottish Cup, anything can happen. We had a bit of success
:06:58. > :07:03.last year, so we definitely want to do it again.
:07:03. > :07:11.We spoke about three wins and a week for St Merryn, three defeats
:07:11. > :07:15.in a week for Inverness. Terry was annoyed, after a couple of games,
:07:15. > :07:25.people said they were not playing so well, but I think they played
:07:25. > :07:30.well today. They created a lot of chances. Both managers felt that
:07:30. > :07:35.they could have won, but the difference was that one side had a
:07:35. > :07:40.player putting the ball in the net. There was always going to be a
:07:40. > :07:45.period in every season where it got tough, and this was it. Kilmarnock
:07:45. > :07:50.have firepower. They won the League Cup last season. Will they won the
:07:50. > :07:54.other cup this time around? I think a number of teams will be trying to
:07:54. > :08:03.suggest that they don't, but when you have goalscorers, you always
:08:03. > :08:07.have the chance. It probably summed up Inverness's luck today that
:08:07. > :08:13.Cillian Sheridan was off injured, Paul Heffernan came on and turned
:08:13. > :08:21.out to be the match-winner. He is looking now as if he is coming back
:08:21. > :08:25.to himself, and he will always be a threat at the top end of the pitch.
:08:25. > :08:30.There were almost shades of Tannadice with close to a goal
:08:31. > :08:34.inside 15 seconds. It was poor inside 15 seconds. It was poor
:08:34. > :08:41.defending at Tannadice. This was high comedy. I don't know what
:08:42. > :08:48.happened here. It was Keystone cops. So there could have been this
:08:48. > :08:52.incredible start, and that would have opened the game out. The game
:08:52. > :08:58.got better and better. But that would have livened it right from
:08:58. > :09:02.the start. As a manager, you must remember this. Steady at the back
:09:02. > :09:08.at the start, try and go forward quickly. I think that is the thing
:09:08. > :09:13.from a manager's point of view. You want to get a good start, focused,
:09:13. > :09:16.concentrated, and you see that there. Rangers lost a goal early in
:09:16. > :09:20.the game at Tannadice, and as much as you are teaching the same things
:09:20. > :09:26.to the players, they have to accept that responsibility when they go
:09:26. > :09:31.onto the pitch. They switched off, and that could have been dangerous.
:09:31. > :09:41.The story of the first half was all about in this -- injury and
:09:41. > :09:41.
:09:41. > :09:48.substitutions. Terry was saying and has been a tough time. You know it
:09:48. > :09:57.is here that Richie Foran goes to his left leg. That is not a good
:09:57. > :10:04.sign, hamstring. On comes Taylor, and didn't have as much of an
:10:04. > :10:07.effect. I think Sheridan has had a very good season, but him coming
:10:07. > :10:13.off and Paul Heffernan coming on actually work in their favour
:10:13. > :10:19.brilliantly, just as Owen was saying there. None of these things
:10:19. > :10:22.were planned, but it worked brilliantly for Kilmarnock. Paul
:10:22. > :10:31.Heffernan would have wanted to come back, because he has been
:10:31. > :10:35.unfortunate with injuries. I loved his first goal. There was a bit of
:10:35. > :10:42.bad fortune in the way it was conceded, but Paul Heffernan is a
:10:42. > :10:48.natural-born goalscorer. He knows where he is putting it, in the
:10:48. > :10:55.bottom corner. There was a bit of bad luck, but you can say nothing
:10:55. > :11:00.against the striker, that was a good finish. The first touch is
:11:00. > :11:04.sublime, and he sets himself up. spoke about awareness earlier on
:11:04. > :11:10.and taking chances from close-in. This is what the second goal for
:11:10. > :11:15.Paul Heffernan was all about. effortless. He knows exactly where
:11:15. > :11:25.the Gaullists. Sometimes it is just about redirecting the ball towards
:11:25. > :11:26.
:11:26. > :11:30.the goal. It is almost caressed around the corner. The pace is all
:11:30. > :11:40.in the ball, he knows where the goals are, he knows where the six-
:11:40. > :11:45.yard boxes, and that is such a I have to say, if you get van
:11:45. > :11:49.Persie doing that, they talk about it all week. That is a great
:11:49. > :11:54.technique, and that striker's awareness of where the goal is is
:11:54. > :11:58.wonderful. It is a great result for Kilmarnock, but Inverness have to
:11:58. > :12:03.bounce back and relaunch what they are doing in the league. It is one
:12:03. > :12:09.of those things where I do think he has picked a great squad. There are
:12:09. > :12:14.players who have worked hard all season. But have they got a good
:12:14. > :12:22.enough squad to stay right at the top, go for the cup and challenge
:12:22. > :12:32.for the lead? I don't think they have. They know that their chances
:12:32. > :12:34.
:12:34. > :12:38.of silverware were there. That is the only way to look at it for them.
:12:38. > :12:45.The story of the fifth round of the William Hill Scottish Cup continues
:12:45. > :12:53.tomorrow lunchtime with our live match on the BBC. Race Rovers
:12:53. > :13:00.against Celtic. Live coverage begins at 12.25. There are two
:13:00. > :13:08.other fifth-round ties to be played tomorrow. Extensive highlights of
:13:08. > :13:12.all three for you tomorrow night from 10.25 on BBC One Scotland.
:13:12. > :13:22.Celtic bounced back with their league performance, four goals
:13:22. > :13:25.
:13:25. > :13:33.against Kilmarnock. But Raith will look towards what St Merryn did. --
:13:33. > :13:40.St Mirren. They had the character to bounce back during the week.
:13:40. > :13:44.They want to win the Scottish Cup, and it was a tough venue. It will
:13:44. > :13:53.be a great day, a big crowd, but they don't want that to be the end
:13:53. > :14:01.of it. They would love that, and particularly Hooper has been
:14:01. > :14:09.fantastic. They are delighted that he is going to stay at Celtic.
:14:09. > :14:15.Certainly going forward into the Champions' League against Juventus.
:14:15. > :14:18.It is tough to replace his sort of goals. He is a top player, and one
:14:18. > :14:24.to look out for tomorrow. They have nothing to lose and might as well
:14:24. > :14:32.have a go. They just seem to know where to go. Norwich were throwing
:14:32. > :14:36.some good money at it. They were trying to entice Celtic to sell him.
:14:36. > :14:42.But they did the right thing, I think, in keeping a quality player
:14:42. > :14:46.and giving themselves every chance. But goals change games. The Celtic
:14:46. > :14:56.had scored the penalty, they could have gone on to win that game last
:14:56. > :14:57.
:14:57. > :15:03.week. That financial lure of a big fee for Hooper was big, but they
:15:03. > :15:13.are focused on continuing in the Champions' League here. We hope
:15:13. > :15:23.
:15:23. > :15:33.that familiarity doesn't breed They have not left a lot of goals
:15:33. > :15:39.
:15:39. > :15:48.in. They might as well get out and go for it. Many other obliques, --
:15:48. > :15:58.many other week, it would have been different. There has been good
:15:58. > :15:59.
:15:59. > :16:07.games today. It takes you away from the weekly grind of the Premier
:16:07. > :16:17.League. They missed a chance to win a trophy. -- there is a chance to
:16:17. > :16:27.
:16:27. > :16:35.win a trophy. Your moment of the day? I think it was that quick goal,
:16:35. > :16:43.Dundee United. For Jackie McNamara to start at his new club, the work
:16:43. > :16:53.between the strikers was fantastic. I thought Russell was fantastic. To
:16:53. > :17:05.
:17:05. > :17:12.start with that! How important that Russell stayed with Dundee. Esmael
:17:12. > :17:18.Goncalves, I think that was your special moment. Absolute they. His
:17:18. > :17:26.first goal was terrific. For me, the second goal, the Strand, the
:17:26. > :17:34.awareness and technique. The awareness to put it in the corner,
:17:34. > :17:44.it was sensational. When will you get back to work? That is a crucial
:17:44. > :17:49.question to end with! We all know who the bosses. I am enjoying the
:17:49. > :17:57.break at the moment. I have had a few offers. If it is the right job,
:17:57. > :18:02.I will take it tomorrow. Time will tell. I have had three or four
:18:02. > :18:12.offers. I feel it has got to be the right job, the right people with
:18:12. > :18:14.
:18:14. > :18:21.the right ambitions. Good to have you with those. Thanks to patter as
