St Mirren interim manager Craig McLeish has been speaking with the media ahead of their Scottish Cup semi-final against Celtic on Sunday at Hampden Park.
Here are the key points:
Goalkeeper Shamal George is a concern after injuring his ankle in training today having recovered from a knock he sustained in the 1-0 Scottish Premiership defeat at Celtic Park last weekend.
McLeish is "hoping that he's going to be OK" but also acknowledged the work of Ryan Mullen who "did great" when he replaced George last weekend.
And the interim boss insists "we're more than comfortable and confident with what Ryan can do".
McLeish says "a lot of our message has been that we've been here this season, we've done it, we've shown that we can do it, even if you aren't favourites for a game and we know that's not what we are this weekend, we've done it and we're more than capable of doing it again."
McLeish watched the League Cup final win over Celtic back in December from the stands as a coach and thought his chances of leading a team out at Hampden Park "were over" this season when his Under-19 side lost in the Youth Cup.
The caretaker boss says he is "proud and privileged" to be able to lead the team out at Hampden this weekend, and admits "I think it's probably the proudest moment I'll have in my career, the biggest moment of my career."
And while "this whole bit is great for me personally" McLeish stresses "it's not about me, it's about the group."
McLeish concedes that winning this semi-final would do his chances of a permanent appointment no harm but was keen to emphasise that he is focused on the day to day.
