Strange game tonight. 3-1 win but don’t think we played too well and gave utd too much room in the midfield at times.
All about the win in the cup though. Bring on the zombies

P8 W5 D3 L0 👏
Also nothing to fear from The Rangers, they will be heavy favourites but games were close between us last season... let's not forget the decisions they got 3 games in a row... hoping our luck is finally turning after some of the decisions this evening!
Was my first trip to Hampden, aged 13. Unbelievable night.Quote:

Do they not normally try put the more ‘TV appealing’ game on the Sunday? I could be totally making that up tbf, just rang a bell in my headQuote:

I thought it was just the order they're drawn in. First tie drawn out plays on the Saturday.Quote:

Was superb. Was something about the vibe of that team after surviving the summer - as soon as the semi final draw was made I asked my Dad if we could go. Maybe just youthful naivety but was really confident.Quote:

About time we got over the line and won a Cup Competition again.
Great result. Hopefully Mr. Oagwibble didn't know it was on so won't be along to dampen the mood.
Can't decide if they were really good and us really bad in the second half or perhaps a bit of both.
Either way all that matters is the result :aok:
We weren’t bad. It was typical cup tie stuff, they had nothing to lose so we’re always going to play with a lot more freedom in the second half. We coped with that reasonably well.Quote:

Always going to be a tricky second half to manage when 3 up at half time in a cup tie. Did enough in the end to get the result.
We look most threatening when on the break though which I actually think will suit us against Rangers. If we can keep a tight ship at the back and work the ball well going forward like we've shown we can do, we've got a real chance.
One defeat this season in Croatia with 10 men as JR says. Mon the cabbage!!
What a first touch from Newell for our first. We looked much less nervy in the highlights than it felt at the game. Penalty decision was a total shocker and we have really had our fair share of decisions this year for the first time that I can remember in about 40 odd years. Hope it continues.Quote:

Ross has us on an upward trajectory though and regardless of what happens in this cup he has already got a tick against it as we are in the semi final. He has a good few "big games" coming up that could really put us in line for a very special season.
In the Scottish cup semis the non BBC game which is the Premier Sports pick is usually the Sunday. The last couple of years we’ve been the Saturday evening in the league cup and probably been the more interesting tieQuote:

Not sure if it will matter but Rangers are at home the following Thursday and Celtic are away in Germany.Quote:

Interesting that the United second goal wasn't deemed a highlight. :greengrinQuote:

Having watched the highlights I have a question about the Dundee Utd goal (and I did notice this last night when watching live).
In the build up, when Harkes plays the ball to Freeman, Pawlett is in an offside position.
Freeman crosses and Pawlett scores.
I thought that should be flagged as offside however I admit to not being 100% sure of the rule.

All to do with the phases of play. Pawlett wasn't affecting the first phase.Quote:

Yes, we’ve played better but this was a tough game and I wasn’t entirely sure about an away tie at a rejuvenated Utd. I think they are a better ‘team’ when everything isn’t about Shankland.
Our creative players turned up and the game was over , bar the (lots of) shouting, by half time.
Hard luck United, they fought hard but Hibs are in another semi and we are undoubtedly one of the better teams in the Premiership.
I thought the much maligned Paul McGinn had a good game, noticed he cut out a few crosses !
Yes I thought this time he was better defensively.Quote:

Allan was good going forward and defensively fine for the first half but definitely tired.
Newall and Magennis did well. Boyle didn't get enough of the ball for me and Nisbet looked off it a bit and really needs Doidge back.
Great result and bring on the hun!!
Defensively much better, but he was slowing down a lot of our play in the first half. Jack Ross had a go at him at one point for it.Quote:

Totally agree. It was a tough away match that we overcame very thankfully. Our team will have felt that they were in a match post bath time. Got to be extremely happy that we are in the semi final. Every player worked hard with a fighting spirit which we will need, to win again against the Rangers. Mon the Cabbage.Quote:
