Title: Good luck to the Doonhamers!!!

Queen of the South take on Aberdeen in the cup semi final at Hampden today, hope they can pull off a shock!

And good luck to Partick for tomorrow, hopefully they can pull off an even greater shock against the Hun, but that might be pushing it a bit!

The only team mentioned in the bible, I am being told.

Also being told that today is the first time they have ever been on tv.

My source is the quite-lovely Millie Clode.

Dunno about the 1st season as pro's but that 1st time on tv was mentioned on soccer am.  Which featured Swindon in Baby Elvis' small talk, very funny.

QOS have a big chance today, would be great to see them get to the final only a few years after Gretna got there!!

The Romance of the cup alive and well. Could be the best Scottish Cup semi since Hearts beat Hibs 4-0!

FFS my parents came round and took us out to lunch and I missed it, saw the first half though.

Quality result well done to QOS.  If Rangers get to the final they are assured of a UEFA cup spot.

The romance is back, north and south of the border!

Come on Partick/St Johnstone, I hope one of those two manage to knock out the hun!

manager at Buckie Thistle according to this, and they are 2nd in the table only 1 point off the top so doing a decent job as well so it seems.
