If the Huns win they will be at home AGAIN!!!

I'd take Dunfermline next round :greengrin

[Since90+2]

Looking at dates for the semi finals should we get there they are due to be played Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd October. If we were to be given the Sunday slot the derby would likely be moved as we are due to play Hearts on the Tuesday.

Might not come to that but just a word of caution for anyone making plans.

Semis wouldn't be at Hampden would it, unless we had one of the OF in the semis?

What would really be funny, and I mean REALLY funny, would be if the "super duper new stand" at Tynecastle made its debut in a league cup semi and it was full of Hibs fans. That would make me seriously laugh.

But let's get past whoever we've got in the quarters first.

We're more likely to get the Saturday slot IF we even make it that far, the derby has already been moved once!

Tiny Tynie won't be available though

[Michael]

Celtic at home would be ideal. Don't fancy playing them at a neutral venue.

[Springbank]

Tiny Tynie won't be available though

To be honest, I would be surprised if Tynecastle is open in time for the Scottish Cup Semis this season

[Firestarter]

Livi at home. Huns v Celtic at Ibrox (if they go through) Aberdeen away to Dundee Utd. (same applies)

[SteveHFC]

Livi or Rangers at home.

[Sean1875]

A wee away day to Livi would be nice!

Aside from that, anyone at home please :aok:

Both Semis were played at Hampden last year.

[Billy Whizz]

Both Semis were played at Hampden last year.

That's because Morton wanted to play there, Aberdeen were against it.
A lot will depend on who is left in the draw
Let's get to the semi

[007]

I'd take anyone away too, except Celtic.

[renato]

Ibrox please. The whole Broomloan for us again...

[KWJ]

Celtic at home would be ideal. Don't fancy playing them at a neutral venue.

Tough one. If we're going to play them then that's the way to get them but it'd be disappointing to put them out and then not win the cup ala 2004.

Think I'd rather Livingston at home and Celtic have another hurdle against Rangers at Ibrox or Aberdeen at Pittodrie.

[BegbieHSC]

Huns at home, pls

Draw is tonight. No idea if live or not.

[Diclonius]

Since BT Sport got involved they've certainly got our cup draws on at far more reasonable times.

It's really refreshing to have the cup draws on immediately after the last game has been played, as opposed to, say, 3pm on a Tuesday 2 weeks after the actual fixtures as the blazers couldn't come back from their "fact finding mission" in the Bahamas to do it.

Will it still be straight after Dundee game if one of the others goes to ET and penalties, or after the end of last game?

if the Huns go through and get another home draw my foot is going through the Tv. They have made sure they get home ties to give them cash. So yep I'm saying they fixed every cup game for them Its that obvious it's frightening.

No doubt we'll be drawn against them .

[danhibees1875]

Rangers could get drawn away to Celtic and you'd get people on here saying it was a conspiracy to help rangers.

Not a single one of those cup draws have been fixed.

A hose would probably be better than some of the clowns that they've wheeled out in the past.

Agreed. Changed days from back then but nevertheless we shouldn't be going into this game thinking its a done deal and that all we need to do is show up. I'm sure Lennon though won't be allowing any of our players to get complacent though, we will go about things completely professionally just like last night.

We're playing far better than we have done in a long time. Lets be arrogant for a change.

No problems in having a bit of confidence but to write an opposing team off before a ball is kicked IS a yam trait so therefore lacks of class - thats what separates us Hibees from the average, dribbling-at-the-mouth, inbred Jambo !

It is happening for us at the moment, so I am very happy.

The Scottish cup run we had 4 teams who all finished above us (Hearts,ICT, dundee Utd, rangers).

The run to the league cup final involved Aberdeen, dundee Utd and st Johnstone, who all finished above us.

What was lucky about those draws?

[The Falcon]

Our achilles heel, in my opinion, is not winning matches that we have been fully expected to for whatever reason. I would suggest that underestimating the opposition would be up there.

We have started well and are looking good but let's leave the arrogance to others. It's not Hibs class in my book. All IMO of course. :aok:

It's a fix!


That SPFL is full of spoon burning Hobos, Ah tell yeh!

[Nutmegged]

Brilliant draw for us, being Hibs I'm natrually inclined to remind myself not to get ahead of myself but that's the draw every club with the exception of Celtic would've wanted, fantastic oppprtunity to get into another semi-final, I'd really love to win another trophy this Season, getting ahead of myself but if we won the League Cup this Season I feel we could be hitting the 14k mark for Season Ticket Holders next Summer.

Some might call it glory hunting but success breeds a fanbase

[Lancs Harp]

Clearly something went wrong with the draw, Ive emailed the GFA suggesting they the redraw the quarter final adding Hearts to the draw and continually redraw it until Rangers get a home tie and Hibs are drawn away to Celtic. This might pacify our detractors.

[Hibbyradge]

Good draw. Chance of another semi final.

Beating Ayr gave us that chance. :wink:

[1van Sprou7e]

While it's true that we have drawn a lot of teams that finished above us, that's just because we were in the championship most teams who make it far in the cups are Premiership teams

Look at the teams we played when we reached the SC semi in Stubbs' first season, pretty easy run of fixtures. Even last year we had a relatively easy run to Hampden

Also it's been years since we played either of the old firm in the cups (with one exception :wink:)

[Craig_in_Prague]

[Since90+2]

Celtic , Aberdeen and Sevco all have trickeyish ties so its not a foregone conclusion they will all get through. I am pretty confident we will beat Livi at home.

I could see Aberdeen or Sevco potentially getting knocked out next round , Celtic are less likely but depends on how they cope with the extra games in the Champions League (or Europa) as well.

[Souter96Mac]

Jambos are right about us getting the easy draws. Don't think we've had to play Peterhead in a while.

[matty_f]

Weve no really. We've had home draws yes but a lot have been premiership opposition.
:agree:

Hearts away twice, Dundee United twice (Hampden and Easter Road) while they were in the top flight. Aberdeen twice, St Johnstone...

Not exactly easy ties.

[Not In The Know]

IF we make the semi it would be the Sat 21/10/17 before the Hearts game.

Once you get to the quarters or the semis then you're always likely to face premiership opposition though. And Dundee United were pish in 2015/16 (although to be fair we also drew them in the league cup the season before)

[Jim44]

Based on experience, probably more than any of the bigger teams, we have no divine right to expect to beat 'inferior teams'. The big difference this season is that we have a team which will compete and stand every chance of beating any domestic opposition.

[Springbank]

Say what you want but we have definitely been quite lucky with cup draws over the past few years

The best Cup Draw we had in recent years (and my favourite) was when we were drawn to play The Rangers in the 2016 Scottish Cup Final.

How on earth were Hearts not there?????

Typical easy draw for the Hobos

[Billy Whizz]

Yup. Respect. Livi will be looking to cause an upset, and upsets happen in Cup ties.

Bigger teams than Hibs have ended up with egg on their faces. Look at last year's FA Cup.

That's the best draw we could have had, BUT ...

... there's many a slip.

RESPECT.

This to the power 'n'.
NEVER underestimate the opposition and never give a sucker an even break.
The road to cup failures is littered with losses to teams that should have been cannon fodder.

Football can be a funny game - it's 11 v 11 (unless you're playing Rangers of course).
Let's not get blaise. We must treat the Livy game in the same way we would a game against say, Aberdeen.
Professionally and ruthlessly.

We drew a team 3 times who have a special relationship with the Scottish Cup who are practically unbeatable if there is a 2 , 3, 4, 5 or 8 in the year. Oh and a 7 or 9 as well. The Famous Hampden Darlings from EH.

[patlowe]

We are in a strong position for cups this season due to the depth in our squad. As on Tuesday, we are able to rotate to a reasonable degree without suffering a drop off in quality.

Date set for Tuesday 19th September. We are the only game from the 4 not on TV.

Good should mean a bigger crowd.

[Diclonius]

That's fine - I can understand why all three of the other ties would attract more TV viewers, and good for BT Sport to show so many.

Guess people will just have to turn up!

Seconded

Clearly something went wrong with the draw, Ive emailed the GFA suggesting they the redraw the quarter final adding Hearts to the draw and continually redraw it until Rangers get a home tie and Hibs are drawn away to Celtic. This might pacify our detractors.


I think somebody will be getting their jotters today, cos they forgot to warm the balls *


:wink:







* Keep it clean, now ;-)

Hopefully. The team deserve it.

Been away for a couple of days.

Who did Hearts get?

I'll be away overseas with work all of September, but I'll be pinned to the forum for updates

They got Emptied.

So did we. We're a better team than them and should be confident against them. I wish we would put an end to this "treading cautiously" nonsense. It's always been our achilles heel.

We're playing far better than we have done in a long time. Lets be arrogant for a change.

Top teams are never arrogant. They respect their opponents. Then beat them on the pitch.

Fans can be arrogant if they like. That done them a lot of good when many adopted that attitude prior to meeting Livingston in the 2004 League Cup final. We all know how that day turned out. Horrendous.

Don't know why we were so confident as Livi had beaten us twice in the league that year IIRC.
We only looked like scoring when the Dobster came on late in the game. Not one of Blobby's better days tactically.

Having supported Hibs for a very long time, I've experienced lots of disappointments (as well as lots of moments of great joy) over the years, but that defeat from Livingston was one of the worst.

You're right what you say, but I don't think many Hibs supporters expected Hibs to lose that day.

Yep Alan Reid was it?

Hadnt alan suddenly gotten a run in the team around then?

on a possibly connected point, didn't we have a bit of an injury crisis leading up to that game, leave no many senior/older players injured and us playing a lot of young players?
