Semi final draw - Dundee Utd v Hibs

[steelendhibs]

When?

[McSwanky]

When?Monday night after the last quarter final.

[Squealing pig]

Rangers in final please

[Hibernia&Alba]

Rangers in final please

I'll take St Johnstone

[AgentDaleCooper]

st mirren or killie please :aok:

[Sir David Gray]

Rangers in final please

We definitely want that this year.

[Hibernia&Alba]

We definitely want that this year.

I just want to win it. The Rangers 2012 reduces that opportunity.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Killie or Dundee utd in the semi ta muchly kindly please thanks

[Sir David Gray]

I just want to win it. The Rangers 2012 reduces that opportunity.

Normally I would completely agree but this year getting European group stage football would be massive for us.

Getting Rangers in the final would be perfect. Obviously it would be nice to win it although I can't help thinking that if we do win it then we'll be the next ones to be criticised by the media as it would be inevitable that we would have large scale parties which would still be illegal.

Don’t want to win the Scottish cup because Covid. Cool

Yeah but imagine the statements The Rangers would come out with.

Beggars belief...

Can you point out where I have said that please?

Any level-headed person with a semblance of intelligence who weighs up the semi and final options, and the potential return and risk for each of these options, would agree with you. But since when does level-headedness come into it as far as The The Huns are concerned? I'll be over the moon if St Johnstone win tonight with an erroneously awarded injury-time penalty which hits the crossbar then bounces in off the back of MacGregor's head.

If it means winning the thing i’d be totally cool with that. Nothing compared to the media spin from our previous final against them.

Now there's a glass "half empty" statement if ever there was

:hilarious

That's the strangest misinterpretation of a comment as I can remember.

[Hibbyradge]

Easiest draw in the semi-final, please.

We've never lost to The Rangers in a cup final and I expect that to continue.

[Sir David Gray]

Now there's a glass "half empty" statement if ever there was

Talking about maximising our opportunities to get into the group stages of European football for the first time in the club's history is glass half empty chat?

[hibeedonald]

Hope Rangers lose, the European football is welcomed but winning the SC would be 1000x better than the Europa conference

[Eyrie]

I just want to win it. The Rangers 2012 reduces that opportunity.

St Mirren knocking out Sevco in the League Cup didn't help us when we faced St Johnstone in the semi.

We're likely to have to face Sevco at some point, so the final is clearly the best game for us to do that as there are only two possible outcomes - win the Cup which gives up group stage football, or lose but still get group stage football through our league position.

The worst outcome for us would be Aberdeen winning the Cup because that gives our direct competitors the financial boost of group stage football. Anyone else winning it won't create the same problem because they'll use the money to clear debt and provide stability for a couple of seasons.

[Northernhibee]

Don’t want to win the Scottish cup because Covid. Cool

What a stupid post.

[Since452]

Getting Rangers in the final would probably be the most relaxed I've ever been about a cup final. Massive underdogs, no monkey on our back anymore, group stage European football and 90 minutes from winning a trophy.

They’ll be parties by fans of whichever team win it

I know but I'm only really bothered if it's our fans who are creating the headlines.

I'd much rather play the worst team left in the competition, rather than the best, to give us the maximum chance of winning the Cup.

[Sir David Gray]

Agreed.

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

I'd much rather play the worst team left in the competition, rather than the best, to give us the maximum chance of winning the Cup.

Getting the worst team but getting the pressure of being favourites or getting the best team and no pressure at all. I would say that was 50/50?.

[Pretty Boy]

Call me mad but I fancy St Johnstone today. Not based on anything really, I just do.

I'm not sure how I'd feel if they did win tbh. Would open the cup up for us but would also pile a lot of pressure on. I suppose it would remove the nightmare scenario of potentially having to support Rangers in the final.

[blackpoolhibs]

I know but I'm only really bothered if it's our fans who are creating the headlines.

To be perfectly honest here, does anyone really care these days what anyone says about anyone?

I dont care one jot myself what papers tv or sports commentators say about us now, there's no level field anymore with journalism, and i just dont take any of it serious, good or bad.

In an ideal world I would like Rangers to get knocked out today but having failed to take advantage of the Old Firm being knocked out in the League Cup going into the semi’s it has left me with doubt this time round. As much as I would love winning the Cup, playing in the group stages of Europe next season would be an experience I never really thought would happen. I hope we get Rangers in the final to guarantee that spot in Europe, I think it would put less pressure on us too and hopefully we can see a repeat of 2016.

I'd also be jealous of Hibs winning the Scottish Cup and me missing out on the celebrations.

I go into every game wanting Hibs to win and I hope we go onto win the cup but I'll be honest and say that it doesn't hold quite the same excitement for me due to the circumstances.

[Diclonius]

I'm honestly coming around to a Hibs v Rangers final being the best outcome for us. We win, we win. Lose, and we still have our European adventure.

Pre-2016 I'd have wanted the easiest tie, but it's a special circumstance this year.

Agree with that. Esp. When coupled with the league cup fiasco when we had a clear non OF run to the trophy.

Euro football and the associated money will be a huge boost for the club.

Sure I want the Scottish as well but I’d happily take my chances with the Huns in the final on this occasion.

[Hibbyradge]

I'd prefer to avoid The Rangers in the semi.

If we played them in the final and lost, we wouldn't have to put up with the bigotted songs etc so as disappointing as it would be, it would be less horrible than it might have been.

If we play them in the final rest assured that their fans however many that are allowed into the Stadium will be spouting their pish win lose or draw as soon as they arrive in the Stadium

Horrible horrible club !

[lord bunberry]

Monday night after the last quarter final.
I thought it was after the huns game today.

Of course, but we won't be there to hear them. Easily ignored.

[BILLYHIBS]

Of course, but we won't be there to hear them. Easily ignored.
With the Euros taking place at Hampden only weeks later I am pretty sure that there will be fans at our own national cup final

[Hibbyradge]

I never thought about that. You could be right.

SFA already said there won’t be due to work needing done for the Euros

:thumbsup:

[Stick]

To be honest I think that I will be just as nervous facing St Johnstone as the rangers in the final. We are just as likely to screw it up, look what almost happened last night. And I think that our mindset is better against the rangers. At least with the rangers in the final it helps us in Europe.

I'd be more nervous against St Johnstone. It's almost a free hit against Sevco but being favourites adds to the anxiety.

[hibbyfraelibby]

United in the Semi please.

2-0 up but didn't need a replay
Winning a tie on penatlies
1st choice keeper not playing

Too many omens

[Moulin Yarns]

Easiest draw in the semi-final, please.

We've never lost to The Rangers in a cup final and I expect that to continue.

1979 and all that 🙄😉


Edit : I saw what you did there 😁

[Lancs Harp]

1979 and all that 🙄😉

You fell for that one mate. Rangers were only formed in 2012 :wink::greengrin

[Moulin Yarns]

Yep, although it's The Rangers as opposed to Rangers 😉

[O'Rourke3]

Well Aberdone cant win the cup and that team doesnt look like they are winning full points on the run in.

St J going for the double !!

I’m in the free hit against Rangers in the final camp. It’s what’s best for us and eliminates possible stress.

Remember leith walk is full of tram works so if Hibs win it..party at Leith Links would be epic !

[Sir David Gray]

I thought it was after the huns game today.

Definitely tomorrow.

[Hibbyradge]

St Johnstone are 25/1 to win the Cup.

1/3 of the odds to reach the final.

[JimBHibees]

Any level-headed person with a semblance of intelligence who weighs up the semi and final options, and the potential return and risk for each of these options, would agree with you. But since when does level-headedness come into it as far as The The Huns are concerned? I'll be over the moon if St Johnstone win tonight with an erroneously awarded injury-time penalty which hits the crossbar then bounces in off the back of MacGregor's head.

The chance of St Johnstone getting a last minute penalty is akin to seeing haileys comet, being struck by lightening and winning the lottery in the same day. :greengrin

So not beyond the realms of possibility then 🤔

Pre-2016 I'd have wanted the easiest tie, but it's a special circumstance this year.

Avoiding them in the semi (whether they’re in the draw or not) is the main thing in that regard, but surely there aren’t hibs fans genuinely not wanting St Johnstone to score against the **** right now and make us favourites to win the Scottish cup?

[PatHead]

Two things strike me about these semis.

1. There isn't much between the 5 sides left
2. Boyle is better than Ryan Kent

Unfortunately can’t agree with either, even if rangers form isn’t quite as blistering since tying up the title. Also, aren’t there currently 6 teams left?

[PatHead]

Oops about 6 teams. I was referring to the post league winning Sevco.

Can't agree with point 1. League table doesn't lie (and certainly not when you are talking 30/40 points of a difference).

[21.05.2016]

Getting Rangers in the final would probably be the most relaxed I've ever been about a cup final. Massive underdogs, no monkey on our back anymore, group stage European football and 90 minutes from winning a trophy.

This :aok:

I hope you’re right - would be nice to see them beaten before end of the season!

[PatHead]

See the above reply

[WeeRussell]

This :aok:

Come on your pair, kidding nobody including yourselves.

We would all still be ****ing ourselves for days before, the same as every other cup final 😀

[ABZHFC]

I feel dirty secretly hoping Rangers nick this, any other season and of course I’d want them out but given we have a better chance of getting my group stage European football until Christmas with them making the final and we won’t even be able to go to Hampden for the final anyway, on this one occasion I wouldn’t be too gutted to see our chances of winning it weakened by them going through here

[Keith_M]

Looks like all you The Rangers lovers got your way then.


:rolleyes:



Oops, maybe not

:wink:

[Keith_M]

So, Saints now favourites for a Double.


:wink:

[Diclonius]

Eh, so I'd like to play Not St Johnstone, and in the final, should we make it there, play whoever beats St Johnstone.

Thanks.

[CraigHibee]

Saints the team to beat imo

[hibee316]

This!

[Northernhibee]

Hibs vs Dundee United
St Johnstone vs (likely) Killie

Is what I would want. I don't want us to be facing St Johnstone at all or Kyle Lafferty in form.

[Keith_M]

I hereby predict that Hibs will be drawn against St Johnstone in the Semi Final.

[neil7908]

Saints the team to beat imo

Yup. They are the only team left that worries me.

[hibbysam]

Winner of tomorrow’s tie please.

[lord bunberry]

This is like the league cup all over again, let’s hope we get the job done this time.

On second thoughts, get it up every single last one of those horrible Hun *******s :greengrin:greengrin:greengrin

[Tambo]

If I could choose any team now would be St Mirren but if it’s St Johnstone then Saturday is a good chance to lay a marker down.

Come on Jack Ross and Hibs. The cup is there to be won.

[Heisenberg]

We now need to win the cup to get guaranteed Euro football till Christmas.

[Magpie]

Dundee Utd for me, we have been the better team every time we have played them this season imo.

[Davy Mac]

I would give up our European place for another Scottish Cup, but we'll take both thank you very much.

Fxxx der Hun, Saints - twice, Killie and the Arabs.

C'mon Hibs this is it...........

[JohnM1875]

Dundee Utd for me, we have been the better team every time we have played them this season imo.

Same! Plus we beat them in the semi last time we went on to win it!

[Centre Hawf]

Weird that I'm conflicted on Rangers losing a game. Usually I'm all over that with delight.

Parking the European football stuff, we have an amazing opportunity now to go do something special and make this one of the best seasons in the clubs history.

It’s a shame we as fans can’t be there for it but will be worth it next season if we do it.

[Centre Hawf]

It’s a shame we as fans can’t be there for it but will be worth it next season if we do it.

If we can go on and do it then at least every group stage game will serve as a reminder of what we would have achieved.

[660]

Dundee Utd vs St Johnstone
Hibs vs St Mirren

Dundee Utd vs Hibs final

Hibs winners

plz

Well done you - got any lottery numbers to share? :greengrin

NB - Don't think any of us will be taking anything for granted but - if we want to be guaranteed European football for xmas there's only one way to do it now - secure 3rd and WIN the fricking Scottish Cup ! :cb

[007]

Winner of tomorrow’s tie please.

Ditto

[ElginHibbie]

Avoid St Johnstone, with us missing Gogic that be the game we'd miss him the most

[MWHIBBIES]

Potential for it to be the best season in decades now. Win it and give us some European nights please Hibs. Would make the season without seeing the team worth it.

[660]

What are the odds for cup winners now. Are we favourites?

[ekhibee]

St Mirren have also beaten the Huns in the SLC this season, there won't be any easy ties.

[ElginHibbie]

What are the odds for cup winners now. Are we favourites?

Only odds I can see are us at 9/4, United on 5/3, St Johnstone 3/1, Killi 5/1 and St Mirren 10/5

[Hibbyradge]

What are the odds for cup winners now. Are we favourites?

Yes.

St Johnstone were 25/1 before today's game. I wish I'd taken that each way.

[Pagan Hibernia]

My prediction, st mirren will beat Kilmarnock tomorrow and will draw us in the semis, a game we’ll win.

dundee United will beat St Johnstone.

hibs v united final

[Greencore]

My prediction, st mirren will beat Kilmarnock tomorrow and will draw us in the semis, a game we’ll win.

dundee United will beat St Johnstone.

hibs v united final

Yep, thought this too

[Diclonius]

My prediction, st mirren will beat Kilmarnock tomorrow and will draw us in the semis, a game we’ll win.

dundee United will beat St Johnstone.

hibs v united final

Probably the ideal path for us.

St Mirren will be tough but I have a bad feeling about Wright and ****ing Lafferty.

[hibbysam]

Yes.

St Johnstone were 25/1 before today's game. I wish I'd taken that each way.

I’m on Hibs at 16/1 each way. Backed it before QOTS and knowing the draw to the semi. Said at the time 1/3 odds for making the final was huge as long as we missed the winner of the OF tie.

[Pagan Hibernia]

Probably the ideal path for us.

St Mirren will be tough but I have a bad feeling about Wright and ****ing Lafferty.

aye. It would be like that lanky streak of pish to scupper us. Hopefully not.

[Eyrie]

Must admit to a slight sinking feeling when I saw this evening's result, but I can live with winning the Scottish Cup to get European football until Christmas.

Minor issue of four other teams with the same ambition and a realistic chance of success however.

[Gordy M]

All the other teams wont be wanting Hibs in the Semis. If we turn up and play our best we will beat every other team left in the cup.

[NAE NOOKIE]

We should have won the Hearts semi, but against St Johnstone we were absolutely terrible.

Dundee Utd were really good against an admittedly rotten Aberdeen side and St Johnstone won at Ibrox, so nuff said about them.

IMO this is anybody's cup, we are capable of beating anybody left in it, but lets not kid ourselves we are also capable of losing to any of them, after watching Dundee Utd and St Johnstone's effort tonight we have to hope for the winners of St Mirren v Killie in the draw because that looks like our best route into the final.

Whatever the case any thought of us being favourites to win it might be ok for the bookies or the pundits, but we all know that is far from the case. All that being said, we have a chance and that's all we can ask for.

if we’d been 4-1 up at halftime in that game it wouldn’t have flattered us.

we were awful in the second half.

[CentreLine]

Easiest draw in the semi-final, please.

We've never lost to The Rangers in a cup final and I expect that to continue.

Almost hooked me there 😖 then I realised you’re right 👍🏻

[AgentDaleCooper]

My prediction, st mirren will beat Kilmarnock tomorrow and will draw us in the semis, a game we’ll win.

dundee United will beat St Johnstone.

hibs v united final
That would be absolutely ideal, i think we'd win the cup

[King Cosell]

Only odds I can see are us at 9/4, United on 5/3, St Johnstone 3/1, Killi 5/1 and St Mirren 10/5

5/3 and 10/5 are the strangest odds I've ever seen. 5/2 and 10/1?

[Hibbyradge]

5/3 and 10/5 are the strangest odds I've ever seen. 5/2 and 10/1?

United are 5/2, St Mirren are 10/1.

[one day maybe...]

Hibs v Killie in the final and lets hope it snows in May :greengrin

[King Cosell]

v Dundee Utd, Kilmarnock & St Mirren this season - W8 D1 L0

v St Johnstone - W1 D1 L2

[Since452]

I'd take anyone. We're better than the other teams left in it. Let's go and prove it. None of this weak mentality.

[Bangkok Hibby]

I'd take anyone. We're better than the other teams left in it. Let's go and prove it. None of this weak mentality.

So would I and I also believe we're better. Just as well the nervousness of fans on Hibs.net will have no bearing on the game. 🤔

[Greenio]

I'd take anyone. We're better than the other teams left in it. Let's go and prove it. None of this weak mentality.

Agree.

Trying to avoid St Johnston in a semi final because we're scared of getting beat off them??

I know it's hard to shake - but this is the collective mindset that we need to change.

We need to go into this with a winners mentality - that's on here, out there and on the pitch!

We're favourites for a reason - cos we are a better team right across the park than any of the others.

Bring em on, whoever, whenever! GGTTH!

[green day]

Agree - some people need to gie themselves a shake.

Before the weekend, we maybe thought Aberdeen, Rangers, Hibs and Killie/St M would be in the semis.

Now it is Dundee Utd, St Johnstone, Hibs and Killie/St M

That is a huge result as far as I am concerned, gives us a bigger opportunity to get to the final and I am 100% sure the Hibs players will think the same.

[Billy Whizz]

More than likely, as we’re the big team left in the tournament, we’ll be the team on the exclusive Premier Sports semi final

They are covering both semi’s and the BBC one as well

[lucky]

Hibs are the best side in the competition, the league table tells us that but the reality all 5 teams can easily win the Cup. I’m just delighted that 2016 happened. Can imagine the pressure of Hibs being favourites and having no fans at the final. I’m confident that Hibs will win the cup if we stay focused and play to our potential

[Since452]

We need to go into this with a winners mentality - that's on here, out there and on the pitch!

We're favourites for a reason - cos we are a better team right across the park than any of the others.

Bring em on, whoever, whenever! GGTTH!

Spot on. I actually hope we draw St Johnstone today. Got a massive wrong to right

I want the weakest team in every round. Always have and always will.

St Johnstone just knocked the run away champions out and we can't seem to buy a win against them.

They're better avoided. Let someone else knock them out.

[Hibernian Verse]

v Dundee Utd, Kilmarnock & St Mirren this season - W8 D1 L0

v St Johnstone - W1 D1 L2

Good stats.

[Since452]

The best team of the other three semi finalists are 18 points behind us in the league. 18. A win over St Johnstone this weekend would be another good phycological boost. We shouldn't be fearing any of them they should be fearing us.

I agree. I will go into (hopefully) both of the remaining cup games confident of a win. But my preference is that United and St Johnstone play each other in the semi.

I’m not choking on the draw and desperate for it to be that way. As I say I’ll be confident whoever it is. But always makes sense to have the best chance possible in every round.

[Franck Stanton]

Before draw as made I genuinely didn't care who we got in semi as, imo, the only team capable of stopping us from winning the cup is Hibs themselves.
Depends which hibs turn up.

[Del Boy]

United, if they play like they did yesterday, will be a very tough fixture. Aberdeen were poor but they were constantly pressed by a very energetic and aggressive United team. They’ve got 3 good goal scorers in McNulty, Clark and Shankland. Don’t think their midfield has much quality but they work hard. Their defence isn’t great but big centre half Edwards is very good in the air.

[AFKA5814_Hibs]

That's good to know. The guy Mehmet made some good saves but the commentator said he's only made 40 odd appearances in his entire career and he's 28, so not played much.

[callumwatt32]

Both on Premier.Premier get first pick to show one semi final exclusively. The other is shown on both Premier & BBC. Think we're almost guaranteed to be the exclusive...

[chrisski33]

Utd will be tougher this time round. Would have preferred St.Mirren

[NAE NOOKIE]

Didn't want St Johnstone so happy enough with Dundee United. United were very good against Aberdeen, but there's no doubt Aberdeen were as poor as they have been in years, they were hard pushed to beat Dumbarton in the last round and continued that form against United, not to mention a huge effort against Celtic in midweek whereas United rested several vital players against Killie, so perhaps it wasn't as brilliant a United performance as it looked.

Anyway somebody made a good point further back in the thread, we are as good or better than any of the teams left in the competition and it's time we started living up to our potential and our position in the league. St Johnstone might have put Rangers out, but the truth is they carried a huge slice of luck against a surprisingly apathetic Huns, Hibs have probably been the one team to give Rangers a hard game every time we have played them this season and if we can bring those performances into the Dundee United game we are well capable of beating them and whoever we get in the final.

We'll need to earn it of course but the fact that they are in the bottom six suggests that performances like yesterday's have been the exception rather than the rule for them this season.

[Sean1875]

I’ve got more faith in St Mirren to get a result against St Johnstone than Dundee Utd.
With Siegrist now out for the season that’s a big boost for us. Aye United played well yesterday but that was largely down to Aberdeen’s defence being an utter shambles and also providing no threat on the counter, or at all in fact. Confident we can beat them.

Out of the other three teams left I think that our performances against Dundee Utd this season were the better. I expect they will rest a few of their players this weekend and will give us a good game but as long as we take our chances on the day I think we will win without too many problems.

[TelaStella]

St Johnstone pose the biggest threat to us and winning this cup. Ideally I’d of preferred them in the semis as it leaves us either taking care of them on the 2nd time of asking or it leaves us... well the usual, Hey ho. I see them as an even bigger threat should they manage to reach the final, with all that extra momentum behind them. Don’t fancy St Mirren at all btw but hope I might be wrong there.

Livi and Ross County were both above us in the league. Livi were just simply a better team, Ross County got massive luck on their side and we missed 3 absolutely key players in Hanlon, McGeouch and Fyvie. Literally the 3 players who got us from defence to attack. In one off games those things make a huge difference.

On a side note, Only 2 times I've seen Hibs go into a final with their own squad fully fit. 2007, we won easily. 2016 we won.

We're a good side, the best one left in the competition. Miles ahead of them all in the league. Gotta believe we can do it.

Not sure if this is the best place to mention it but I see Dundee United fans gathered to give their players a big send off when they were leaving tannadice for the game on Sunday. Thought it looked great to be fair to them and no doubt they’ll be doing the same for the semi final.

Wonder if the Hibs singing section (forget what they’re called now) would consider doing something similar for the Hibs team bus leaving?

Give me our squad over any of the 3 teams left.
Dundee United have goals in them if they are at it, but we are a better side, defensively and going forward.
St Johnstone's success is down to hard work and organisation, if we can match them in that, our quality will shine through, don't lose silly goals from set pieces and get the first goal, the cups ours if that's who we face if we reach the final.
And jack ross has St.mirrens number, we are better than them in every department.

St Johnstone's success is from a squad of players and backroom staff that have been there for years and know each other and how they play.

Otherwise, we need to go in all guns blazing. Finish the season with no regrets.
