I am really comfy going into this Final as underdog. In fact I'm happy telling any over-confident Jamboid that we are the biggest underdogs in the history of underdogs, heap the pressure all on them etc.

That's not to say I believe it though...every trophy and tournament has its stories of underdog glory.

Put yours here!!

My favourite is Dundee Utd (who had never won the cup before, not even with UEFA finalist teams etc) when they beat the unbeatable Rangers of 1994, thanks to Ally Maxwell's blunder.

For Maxwell, read Jamie "p*sh keeper" McDonald, the Yams blunderman, he's going to gift us the cup

Anyway, here's DUFC in 94, proving Hoodoos ain't forever!!

Check 3m40 - it's hilarious

The just recent, league cup final back in March. Nobody thought Killie had a hope in hell of beating a very good Celtic team but look what happened.

4 weeks ago. City were 8 points behind utd and everyone wrote them off. Now look at them today, only need to match utd's result to win the prem for the first time in 60 odd years.

Watched a re-run of that this morning, Vinnie Jones was an animal. I wish he was playing for us on sat.

I remember Don Revie's "invincible" Leeds United only had to turn up at Wembley to pick up the FA Cup. However, Bob Stokoe's Sunderland had other thoughts and won, IIRC, 1-0. Goalie Jim Montgomery had a blinder for Sunderland, again IIRC.

I was right behind this shot in the Scotland 1 Holland 0 game

What an upset that was (even more than the French games IMHO)

And goes to show, Hampden is the place for underdog upsets :-))

That was one of my first ever Scotland game. Absolutely brilliant and what a strike by faddy. Instead of faddy, it will hopefully be paddy working his magic at hampden come may 19th.
