    if we could only win one game.....

    what would you prefer, the semi or the derby?

    The chance of another final or turn these ******s over again.

    Derby. Getting a decent run started in the league is more important for me in the long run.

    That said, can't we have both?? 😝

    I'm going with the semi final. When you play each other three or four times a season you're going to lose one or two sooner or later. Cup wins or finals dont come along that often (well they didnt until recently ) Of course the correct answer is to win both.

    I would rather win the semi and end the streak than beat them again.

    Hearts no doubt.

    Hearts is just another league game..Celtic Semi without a shadow of a doubt - we will beat Hearts at least twice this season regardless..

    A win at Hampden and lose just by the one goal to the cheats after out playing them for 90 minutes. Never nice losing to the Jambos but another cup final at Hampden would be nice.

    Semi.

    We’d win the cup and still finish above Hearts in the league.

    good answer!

    - Feedback sounds like its 50/50, semi win for me, but would be gutted if we lost on Tuesday.

    A win in the Semi followed by a draw against the ****bos, earned with a Paul Hanlon esque last gasp equaliser :D

    It's got to be beating Celtic in a cup semi-final surely? That's a WAY bigger achievement than winning a league game against Hearts (which there's a very good chance we'll do anyway).

    Edit: If we're only allowed to WIN one, I'll still take the semi-final win and settle for a derby draw.

    The derby. It wasn't even a tough choice.

    Got to be the semi final. A place in a very winnable cup final or 3 points in the league is no contest, as much as detest Hearts.

    Semi. Not even a flicker of doubt.

    We shout out our pink chums for defining themselves by success against us.

    Derby win 100%.

    I want to continue on with the unbeaten run against them - I think we're at 7 so far and I also want to get our league season back on track.

    I want to win on Saturday as well but a win on Tuesday will please me more than a defeat on Saturday would hurt me.

    I'll choose a draw on Saturday (and going through on penalties) followed by a win in the derby.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    Semi final, obviously.

    There's lots of chances to beat hertz. Not so many chances to get to a cup final.
    Buy nothing online unless you check for free cashback here first. I've already earned £2,389.68!

    A semi-final win is far, far more important, as it will give us a chance to win one of only two trophies any SPL side outwith Celtic can realistically win.

    Beating them is now so yesterday and frequent that the game has lost its edge, so they can have their now rare win, though, as always, they will lift their game to achieve it. We will have another 3 derbies to put them back in their customary place.

    Semi.

    Semi.

    The derby is the biggest game of Hearts season, it's not even the biggest game in our week. Over the course of a season we'll have multiple opportunities to ensure we finish above Hearts. We've got one chance to gurantee a LC final place and winning it would sicken that lot over the city. Racking up 3 major trophies in a decade would be a huge achievement for us.

    Can't believe folk would give up the chance of a cup win, real measurable success, to win a bog standard league match even against them. We won't win the league but we could win the cup. Once again something that hearts can't and won't manage. We will win league matches against them this year but might not get to another cup final for a while. Always take the real success when you can. Pretty boy put it well above, hearts biggest games are against us, our biggest games are semis and finals

    Semi final. The ones to end Celtc's run, and a final against poorer opposition.

    A chance of silverware over a derby league game for me. Although losing to them would be sickening!
