    Early predictions for the final

    I know there is still over 4 weeks and 4 more games before the final, and anything could happen regarding injuries/suspensions before the 26th of May. But what do people think the score will be?

    We already have an advantage with Wanyama and Kayal (his natural replacement) suspended but lets be honest, Celtic are firm favourites for this game. I am slightly concerned that this years cup run is remarkably similar to last years, we played several teams this year that we played last year and we will face our first top 6 SPL side of the tournament in the final. However I'm definetely feeling a lot more positive about it this year and will go out and enjoy the day to its fullest - win or lose, without the worry of a pink parade after the game.

    2-1 Hibs aet with Harris and Sparky with our 2 goals. Although this depends heavily on the good hibs turning up and Celtic bottling it like they have done so many times at Hampden under Neil Lennon

    I had a vivid dream two nights ago that we won 8-1 and the celebration was huge.

    4-0 to them. Just cant see us doing anything (had this same feeling last year) really hope Im wrong. I really hope we are still in with a chance with like 20minutes to go. Then anything could happen.

    play like we did in the 1st half v falkirk and i predict the same scoreline as the 1972 SC final v sellick = 6-1 :( and more or less half the attendance that was there in 72 as well(106,000)

    Actually statistically speaking, if penalties were genuinely a 50/50 event, the odds of WWWWWWWW are exactly the same as WWWWWWWL. So don't worry.

    Anyway, it's not 50/50 because we have Big Ben.

    Aye, but do they still have Pierce O'Leary?

    I was at the final where Anton Rogan missed the penalty giving Aberdeen the cup. He probably took the best penalty of the lot as well. Wee shame so it was

    Efe Ambrose is the new Pierce O'Leary, you heard it here first.

    I was at that final too, in the Aberdeen end next to a clump of undercover Tims. Wind up central.

    Cant see us getting anything out of this one.

    My confidence has taken a mojor knock with last years final and the first half of the Semi this month.

    Going to support Hibs as it is a Cup Final, and technically anything can happen.

    However this is Hibs in a Scottish Cup final, so only one thing will happen.

    Thats me.

    Pat on the other hand has to instill the belief in the team.

    Please just be in with contention at half time!

    The one thing I take confidence from is that we know we can beat Celtic as we have done once this season. If I remember right we were on a poor run of form before that game and after it, so definetely positives to be taken from that. I wasn't at either of the games at Parkhead but it sounds like we done really well in the first game. Before last years final we had been pumped by 2 goals in all 3 games against h****s

    So was I. West stand?

    Timothy left pretty sharpish as I recall

    We did too actually as we were getting worried that the Aberdeen fans might think we were Celtic fans too as we weren't jumping about like a bunch of fruitloops

    I can quite confidently predict that it will either be tight or Celtic win run away with it. If it is tight it might be a draw after 90 minutes. If it is a draw after 90 minutes then I predict it will be pretty tight come the end of extra time. If it is a draw one of the teams will then win on penalties.

    Guess I am saying I have not a f'n clue.

    unless wee can snatch an early goal to upset them i fear the worst im affraid.

    if they score early on we will completely fold, and they will be too strong for another comeback.

    I just want us to still have a.chance of winning with 15/20 to go. The last 2 SC finals have been over far too early.

    Heart says 2-1 Hibs, head says Celtic by a couple.

    I have no idea what the score will be but Hibs are going to win.
