Hearts 98 team was a very good one. This one is a million miles away.

True - but until then Hearts never winning anything was one of the few things you could rely on in life.

Oh I remember it well! Coming right after our relegation it was an especially sore one.

I think it will be closer than a few think on Saturday

I said to my mates the other day that that 2013 final was the closest parallel I could draw to this year's, in terms of gaps between the two teams and how much of a shock it would be if Celtic lost. There are further similarities in that their main man is missing also - okay Griffiths played in that final but (like Sauzee in 2001) clearly wasn't fit.

When was the last time one of the OF was genuinely shocked in a Scottish Cup Final? Rangers in 1994?

I agree that this feels extremely similar to 2013. I am
Hoping for the same scoreline.

Rangers in 2016?

Whilst us finally ending our Scottish Cup wait was a very pleasant surprise, purely as a football contest, us beating Rangers was not.

Yeah we'd only just beaten them by the same score and and quite a few times prior.

Them winning it in 98 was my worst non Hibs related moment in football. Was only a youngster but remember being absolutely sick about it.

According to my dot counting script they have 20 tickets available to buy online. Incredible* that it's not sold out.

* in a good way.

Bit of a non story this. The game meant nothing to Hertz in terms of league position and they do have a day out to pay for this weekend, their lack of enthusiasm for a non event at a venue where they never get a result is hardly a surprise.

The fact that they still have tickets available for the final a week before kick off is far more interesting, but entirely consistent for a club who of all Scotland's 'big' clubs are the one who seem to have most trouble shifting tickets for games their fans think they are likely to lose …. the pathetic turn outs by their home support for recent cup ties against Celtic at the Rust Arena being a case in point. Its also a fact that they couldn't sell all of their tickets for the 2013 League cup final, and that was a game they were favourites to win.

In Scottish terms Hearts are a big club …. just not as big as they would have folk believe

Them beating Gretna was ***** also. Kinda forgot about that one.

Yes, this feels like 2013.

Celtic will be obsessed with the Treble Treble. They will not want to let that one slip out of their grasp.

Lennon hates Hearts.

Confident of an easy Celtic Win.

Think this is the key. Celtic in the cup are a different animal to celtic in the league Imo.

Is Forrest fit for the final? I want a Watford level humiliation

[Stevie Reid]

Quite glad Olly Lee isn't playing - don't rate him especially highly, but his shooting ability does give them potential for a goal out of nothing.

[G B Young]

Never watched the cup final but just saw the goals and the Hearts end looked several hundred seats short of being full. I know they were all but certain to lose but it's still surprising they couldn't shift their allocation. Did they bother coming up with any sort of display? Celtic's one looked good on the news just now.

On the subject of that Celtic display were the fans actually wearing colour-co-ordinated pull-over plastic tops?

I’m guessing they had the plastic sheets left on their seat

I thought we were meant to be reducing the amount of plastic waste we produce.

It would take a particularly conceited, entitled and arrogant group to wilfully disregard that.

Maybe they're compostible? Though I don't imagine so.

I thought the display looked excellent. The one they did for the Libson Lions the previous week was even better. Hibs have also had some brilliant displays in recent years.

Just saw Hearts' effort. Some maroon and white flags. Dull and unimaginative, just like their team - and rendered even less effective by the number of empty seats in their end.

Genuine quote from my missus when we drove past the guys selling Hearts Flags early in the morning.

"Why are they selling Poo coloured flags?"
