Who do we want in the final?

[Houchy]

Obviously we're closer matched to united but with celtc missing wanyama and kayal does this make them a better prospect?

Thoughts?

I know we'll start as underdogs either way.

Send hooper off and book Mulgrew and we have a deal :greengrin

Agreed :agree: send another 3 of their starting 11 off

[Houchy]

I'm thinking also that Celtc might take us lightly and think they just have to turn up.

[Hibercelona]

It doesn't matter, we should be prepared regardless.

Up until a couple of weeks ago Id rather have had celtic. Think their proper dodgy with the long ball over the top and on the turn. Parkhead game makes me thing twice as we were proper kite though.
Looks like its celtic.

Think we have a slightly better chance of beating Unt in final rather than Celtic. On other hand if it was Celtic we would qualify for Europe win or lose. We will however have to play like we did second half v Falkirk and not like first 45min.

I thought the European rule had been changed? I could be (and would love to be) wrong though :agree:

From SPL website -


~ If the Scottish Cup winners have qualified for the Champions League, then the SPL third-placed club enters at QR4, the fourth-placed club enters in QR3 and the cup runners-up enter in QR2

Cool, cheers for that :agree: :thumbsup:

If we win we'd go into the 3rd qualifying round. Lose and it's the 2nd qualifying round. After the 3rd qualifying round there's another knockout round (the playoff round) before the group stages.

[Franck Stanton]

Looking like it's Celtic - they've just scored making it 4-3 in e/t funny, seam to recall a similar score in another semi but for the life of me can't recall it.

[danhibees1875]

and Europe for the cabbage. :aok:

[Pete]

Fine by me. Absolutey nothing to lose.

Rod will be happy as tickets will be hard to come by.

Celtic it is then, which pretty much guarantees wee Pat going all defensive.
Wanyama and Ledley simply ran over the top of Thomson, Claros & Deegan at Celtic Park the other week, so it's good news Wanyama, Brown & Kayal are all out.
Commons has been the key man in recent times, we didn't pick him up in the area between back four and centre midfield and were punished. Should Thomson or Taiwo do a man-marking job?
Pat has got five games to get the team ready for another bid day at Hampden.
I'd like to see Handling get a run alongside Griffiths but can't see us going 4-4-2 in the final, despite yesterday's second half heroics...

[Pete]

No ticket details up yet.

Simply not good enough hibs.
