Who do we want in the semis?

[heretoday]

Celtic!

[Sir David Gray]

Either Aberdeen or Rangers, assuming Aberdeen beat Motherwell. I don't think there's much between them.

As long as we avoid Celtic, I'll take my chances.

[hibbysam]

Laws of averages says we draw Celtic. Seems to be forever since we drew them in a cup tie. League cup possibly at home when Sproule scored after seconds and got humped, around 2011.

Play them in the semi final and it'll be around the time of the Bayern away game which would give us the best opportunity.

Celtic!

I'm not sure where the logical think would be of that? We win the semi and reach another final financially and emotionally it benefits us.

Financially perhaps, but emotionally? Not sure about that.


My logic being that we probably have to play them at some point so, if we were to get beat, losing in the semi-final isn't quite as devastating as losing a final.

If we actually beat them (however unlikely that is), then we would have a much better chance of winning the final against one of the other teams still in the draw.

[Dav1986]

The amount of semi final draws that us and Celtic have been in together and avoided each other makes me think that this time we will draw them.

[Nutmegged]

we're running out of venues to beat the huns 3-2, wonder if Murrayfield is available 😉

Anyone but Celtic but if Dundee do the unthinkable tonight then thats your Sevco semi final

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

Anyone. Anywhere. Anytime.

Teams know our cup record

If the line up is Hibs, Aberdeen, Celtic and The Rangers I think they would almost certainly have to be.

The top 4 sides in Scotland, then!

[Stokesy's on fire]

I want Motherwell they should easily see off Aberdeen

[Hi Heid Yin]

I would have taken Hearts, seeing as we own them, but I just noticed that they didn't get past Peterhead and co, so I guess I'd take The Rangers - another side that we own.
To be fair to The Rangers, they have done well since coming into existence and into the scottish leagues back in 2012, and were plucky losers in their first ever scottish cup final against us last year. Their time in winning a major trophy will come, I'm sure.

Can't help but feel that Motherwell have a very good chance. I'd take the winners of this match either way.

[Gatecrasher]

I would take anyone, they are all big games at this stage.

That's a good point. Don't want to admit it but Rangers have been excellent in the cups. Plucky cup side. They've been in a few semis and a final against us not to mention a historic Petrofac cup win.

Celtic.

Somebody will beat them sooner rather than later and we've as good a chance as anyone in a cup tie.

Our poor neighbours looking in from behind their glass curtain just wishing they could play with the big boys

[IGRIGI]

Aberdeen, Rangers get a flukey win over Celtic and we march on for another 3-2 spanking of the huns at Hampden.

[Famous Fiver]

Hearts.

Oh, wait...........

[erin go bragh]

Motherwell , Sevco ,Sheep , 2nd to wear the green .

[Bostonhibby]

Getting a bit tedious owning the reincarnation of the now defunct Glasgow rangers in the games that matter so I'd like a revenge crack at the sheep.

The poorest team left in it. if Aberdeen win tomorrow then rangers. If Motherwell win then Motherwell, hope rangers beat celtic and then we get our traditional 3-2 victory against them in the final and everyone is happy, except for jambos and huns but who gives a **** about them

[The Baldmans Comb]

Aberdeen or Motherwell and leave Celtc for the final who will surely dispose of Rangers 2012, a team who still haven't won a major trophy in their entire existence though fair play for their valiant wee effort against us.

[Souter96Mac]

Just glad we've not got Peterhead, we've dodged a bullet there

[NAE NOOKIE]

Aberdeen have had a wee bit of a dip in form and Motherwell are unbeaten in 4 ... being at home they must fancy their chances of making the semi finals.

We would have a decent chance against anybody but Celtic, so from that POV we need to avoid the lesser greens if we want to make the final. I have to say I'm struggling to see where a Celtic defeat is coming from ... but the thought that we might end that unbeaten run in a final at Hampden no matter how unlikely that is would be something to look forward to.

Saw highlights of the Aberdeen Kilmarnock game at the weekend and they didnt look great IMO and were lucky to get a point. Think Motherwell are getting them at a good time.

Easiest tie possible so, rangers please.
