Danny Devine dreaming of Inverness Celtic Scottish Cup fairytale repeat as defender makes extra medal claim

Danny Devine already knows how it feels to live the fairytale by lifting the Scottish Cup with Inverness.

And the Northern Irishman believes Hampden glory could be written in the stars once again for the Caley Jags after they booked their final spot - three months after being knocked OUT the competition.

If Billy Dodds’ side do upset the odds in next month’s showpiece then Devine reckons an extra winners’ medal should be carved out for club secretary Fiona McWilliams after her intervention back in January saw the Highlanders reinstated after losing to Queen’s Park in the fourth round. It was McWilliams’ eagle eye that spotted the registration blunder in the Spiders’ line-up that saw Euan Henderson fielded. Inverness haven’t looked backed since being restored to the cup and Livingston, Kilmarnock now Falkirk have been swept aside. Devine - who was a key man when John Hughes led Caley Thistle to glory in 2015 - was a rock at the back on Saturday as a Billy Mckay double either side of a Daniel Mackay header eased them past the League One Bairns.
