Time To Shut Up About The Scottish Cup

[Dashing Bob S]

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the day as much as the next Hibby. But now I reckon it's way past time to let go of that momentous occasion when David Gray's dramatic injury time header ended 114 years of hurt and lifted a monkey not just off a football club's back but an entire community. It's time to forget the singing, dancing, revelry and partying that followed, and the hilarious pain it brought down on a spoiled, petulant, sulky and entitled Rangers and the Scottish media establishment. It's time to stop going on about Stokes's great early strike and how when the tables were turned by two lucky Hun strikes we didn't crumble in the face of adversity but dug deep as epitomized by McGinn's tackles and got the reward as Stokesy brushed the lightweight Tavereier aside to level the score from Hendo's cross. It's time to forget the late pounding we gave the Hun and the air of inevitability as Gray powered through the jellylike mass of Hun bodies to head home a Hendo corner to send us all in rapture, rip up half of Hearts song book. It's time to grow up and move on. It was only a game of football. And yet...

I agree with most of that apart from the singing, we will forever be singing about that glorious day.

I've watched the highlights every day since. A day I'll never shut up or forget about :

Just watched it again, still love the moment when Henderson runs away celebrating seconds before the referee blows for full time.

[Smartie]

My Jambo mates have stopped drinking with me because I won't stop going on about it.

I miss them and really need to catch up with them to hear about their new away strip and European campaign.

[Glory Lurker]

I agree with the OP. In fact, I was a bit embarrassed by the hoo-hah after about a week. It was as if we'd never beaten Rangers before, for pete's sake. Not Hibs class

I have watched this a couple of times myself. I think he hears the first peep and starts to run.

Talking about whistles, I love the ref blowing for full time after JC puts the last penalty away against United. I'm not sure I've ever noticed a ref doing that before at the end of pens, but it makes sense right enough.

I was thinking about getting a yam just so I could tell it all about it, and obviously give it the chance to tell me about the fabulous new strip, but with hindsight I might just take the OP's advice after all.

Do you actually realise how pathetic and childish that is?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest he might have been joking.

A wee bit humour in response to DBS humorous post. Often do it.

Havn't read the previous posts,but Dashing,.......the punctuation,paraphrasing,and most of all,the guff sprouted do you no favours.

114 years of milking it seems fair.

How could I do that by posting a sensible comment?

[Pete]

The Scottish cup is now a sensitive subject for some Jambos.

Just think guys...you had two chances to thwart the mighty HFC and you bottled it.

DBS is a decent poster. He's factual.

How long can this milking go on?

That is all he was saying ffs.

Tell me, please, that this is an attempt at irony?


If not, you may want to consult your own post and learn from the lesson you're publicly giving yourself.

[Glory Lurker]

I can't work out who's annoyed and who's joking.

[Vault Boy]

Wait I thought it was the League Cup we'd won???

Excuse me for being a thick ******* !

Must read this again tomorrow without the bottle of wine.

[Ronniekirk]

I have never watched the whole game back Didn't think the Cup Winning D V D would take so long to get made and put on sale
But have watched the highlights posted on dot net on numerous occasions and never tire
of watching it and always brings a smug smile to my face
I intend to continue to revel in our recent glory and continue to take every opportunity to enjoy being Scottish Cup holders
At some point it will naturally take its place in the memory and not be such a big deal but clearly i am not yet ready to let go
And hey we still have all the Scottish Cup Memorabilia on order to look forward to and is Moonshine on Leith still not to be published
And are Hibs really not going to allow the players to parade the Cup round Easter Road and have their lap of honour they were denied at Hampden

I with the OP and it's also time to stop calling the famous Glasgow Rangers, 'The' Rangers. It's very disrespectful, IMHO, as we all know they're actually SEVCO.

[Waxy]

I dont think we'll see the end of us milking it.
Well not in our lifetime.
