Scottish Cup 2015 - Semi-finals

The draw is tomorrow. After the disappointing postponement today, we'll definitely be in the hat and will know our prospective semi-final opponents.

It's been a while since we've been to Hampden - we should have been there last year but for the Commonwealth Games taking over the stadium.

Many of our younger fans will not have witnessed us playing there - it's a huge incentive.

 

  • Inverness Caledonian Thistle or Raith Rovers
  • Falkirk - they consistently seem to do really well in the cup - would be a good draw for us though - plus the added 'spice' of Yogi's legendary status there!
  • Dundee United or Celtic - Would love Celtic's treble to come crashing down here. I don't think we should fear United - they seem to have become a shadow of their previous selves after losing their two main players. As much as I don't agree that Ciftci should be involved here, I'd have a wry smile on my face should he be the match-winner!
  • Hibernian or Berwick Rangers - Obviously, I fully expect Hibs to win this and as always, when they come close to the final of the Scottish Cup, the 1902 statistic will become forefront. It's now 113 years since they beat Celtic 1-0 in the final. It would be ironic if they finally ended that forever on-going sequence as a 'lower league' club!

  • The final will be on the 30th of May, right? Yeah, that's right. Should be a good match. I think we'll beat Falkirk over the 90 minutes.

    I was struck by Terry Butcher's inept performance on Sportscene.  Despite the fact that he was a previous manager of two of the clubs in the Quarter finals, he was introduced as the "former Rangers ca

There's a ceilidh band from Inverness playing the Park Bar on Saturday night before the game. They're called Hò-rò and are very talented. I'll be going, anyone else?

Where is The Park Bar please?

That'll do for me. It's nice to find helpful people.

I'm not sure of the road name sorry but it's quite near Ibrox.

Park Bar is on Argyle Street. Near Kelvingrove St. Towards the west end from the city centre. Not near Ibrox at all lol!

Oops!!!!

Does anyone think that our fans are going to have a fairly large gap between us on Sunday? West stand sales are definately being sold from corner 1st then towards middle. Dose anyone know which side are being sold 1st for south stand? If they are selling from centre towards west stand then surely our fans will have large gap between us. Hope that makes sense

What stand is everyone planning? Would much rather to be closer together and give Celtic the chance to sell out the rest because then there would be much more atmosphere

One of the interesting comments to come out of the Saturday game was that Celtic would have more space available on the Hampden pitch. From what UI can find, the dimensions of the two pitches is identical.

 

Sunday's weather forecast looks to be sunny with lower wind speeds. Given the way we played at the beginning of the season and throughout January that should not disadvantage us.

 

Thank goodness we are not on course for the treble!!

Referee for Sunday is Steven McLean

Referee for Sunday is Steven McLean

 

He was politely advised by Yogi that he missed giving us a penalty in the league cup final when Considine shoved Richie who potentially had a free header on goal. Let's hope he redeems himself with 5 minutes to go on Sunday. He is a pretty fair and calm referee though.

Any buses going through Dundee ?

 

Needing three seats. Fancy a pint to celebrate afterwards so nae driving for me.

 

Any suggestions ?
