David Templeton would seem to be one of them, though.
The 23-year-old was an unused substitute in the semi-final at Hampden as he closes in on a competitive return from a persistent groin injury, but was just one booking away from missing the final against Hibernian. After the last-minute penalty from Craig Beattie, only Ryan McGowan joined in with the striker's topless dash past the Hearts supporters, with Marius Zaliukas, Rudi Skacel, Andrew Driver, Darren Barr, Danny Grainger and Suso Santana all acutely aware they were just one booking away from sitting out the final.
