Cummings, who has started the last three first-team games on the bench, scored after five minutes of today’s SPFL Development League match against Kilmarnock at Oriam. Jack Whittaker equalised for Killie before Cummings was shown a red card for dissent just before half-time.

Despite his sending-off, it is understood Cummings will be available for Saturday’s Ladbrokes Championship clash against Falkirk at Easter Road, as a red card for foul, abusive and insulting language only carries a competition-specific suspension.
