Forward Euan Henderson signed on loan from Heart of Midlothian after the tie was initially postponed on 21 January. Playing him in Tuesday's rearranged tie, which Queen's Park won 2-0, was contrary to competition rules. Inverness will take on Livingston at the Tony Macaroni Arena on 11 February. Queen's Park president David Hunter said: "An error was made regarding the eligibility of a player who featured in Tuesday night's game with Inverness Caledonian Thistle and we have accepted the SFA's decision. "It is a regrettable mistake. One we will learn from. Our team put on a tremendous display on Tuesday to win the tie and obviously today's result is a hugely disappointing outcome. As upsetting as this matter is, it's vital that we put this behind us quickly, move on and focus on our league campaign." https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/64515676 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
