It's a rare day when the fourth round draw doesn't command centre stage but the resignation of Stuart McCall and the need to find a prompt replacement has to take top billing.
Motherwell were matched with Dundee United in the second last tie to be picked from the hat. We last faced them in March 2011 when Murphy, Humphrey and Jeffers led us to a 3-0 victory on our way to the final. That was Stuart McCall's first Scottish Cup tie in charge of Motherwell.
The tie is due to be played on Saturday 29 November subject to the choice of the broadcasters.
