       "Up to 1,000 fans will be allowed to attend the Irish Cup final
       at Mourneview Park in Lurgan, County Armagh, on 21 May."
       While more generally:
       "Spectators could be allowed to attend outdoor sports events in
       Northern Ireland from later in May, it is understood.
       It is understood ministers have agreed up to 500 people can
       attend outdoor sport events as spectators from an indicative
       date of 24 May."

       By contrast:
       "There will be 600 fans at the Scottish Cup final between St
       Johnstone and Hibernian after permission was granted to allow
       spectators inside Hampden.
       The Scottish FA had applied for 2,000 to be allowed following
       the seating template used for Euro 2020 games.
       However, the Scottish government says two-metre physical
       distancing will be needed, rather than the 1.5m that will allow
       12,000 fans at the Euros."

       Some fun in the first semi final - a keeper being sent off
       during the shoot out isn't something that happens too often

       The ref must have had a good laugh in the sixth form room about
       it this morning.

       I don't think the officials got anything wrong to be honest but
       yes he does look very young and I don't think he's a great ref
       usually

       When Baxter started girning afterwards about "legal action", we
       all had a good laugh!  ;D

       Not only did they not get it wrong, they actually went the extra
       mile (and a half). How many times was Tuffey told?

       Do you think he got the irony of describing how he was
       embarrassed for the game/refereeing fraternity? Look it the
       mirror FFS.

       Baxter even had the cheek to say Tuffy wasn't off his line, just
       like Baxter wasn't off his head  talking about legal action.

       Seems they aren't complaining about the red card now , more that
       Larne didn't take a player off the pitch after the red card. The
       case will be presented to the IFA on Friday morning apparently
       so not sure if the final will definitely go ahead

       They got the rule absolutely spot on, but the ref looked like a
       child. Perhaps that's just a sign of me getting old?

       Crusaders have lodged an official protest over the penalty
       shootout citing "multiple separate breaches of Laws 10 and 14 of
       the IFAB Laws of the game"

       Could be time to get the popcorn out and watch how this unfolds.
