I thought that too until 2012 and we beat Celtic. You never know. Good luck, i'll be hoping for a Motherwell win.

Too much doom and gloom guys...... She wore , She wore, a claret and amber ribbon, a claret and amber ribbon in the merry month of May....... Sing

Correct haha. When we beat Ayr in the Semi, many fans treated it as the final as we had Celtic in the Final and they were going for the treble and on a crazy unbeaten run. All I'm saying is you never know. They are far from unbeatable. Good luck.

Apart from the clear financial benefits of these deals it allows us continue with a solid core to the team which will benefit us next season. No major rebuilding is required rather some fine tuning. Maybe a left sided wing back, a creative central midfielder, and a couple of strikers. Every team needs to bring in 2/3/4 new players every year to keep things fresh. We're reasonably solid; now to add a bit of attacking flair.

Well I'm waiting at the airport waiting to fly back from holiday and am starting to get excited now. Away with another family and fortunately the other guy insisted on this flight home as he's a Celtic supporter and assumed they would be in the semi (bit presumptuous of him). The new deals announcement has helped to get me in the mood as well.

Well done to the club excellent business. Looks like we are going to keep the nucleus of this team together. If we can add a wee bit in the summer I will be really confident. Kipre's extension in particular could result in is receiving big money down the road if he continues to develop.

Kipré, Bowman Dunne and Tait's contacts all extended

COYW!! getting more excited now. Really want us to get to this final and beat whichever ugly sister makes it. How good would that be? I don't recall us ever making 2 finals in the one year so even that in itself would be something to remember.

Thankfully I haven't a clue who you are.

I’ve got a right bee in my bunnet about the post-split fixtures favouring the Old Firm (like plenty of other folk, probably) but one thing in particular does my nut in when I even think about it. When Rangers were out of the SPL/Premiership the league had four years, FOUR YEARS, where they could have given Celtic the unfavourable set of home-away fixtures since they were winning the title at an absolute canter anyway and they didn’t. Then, when Rangers came up and were utterly miles away from any sort of title challenge on account of being utterly pish, they could have done likewise but didn’t. These things would have at least attempted to create the illusion that there is a fair system in place for how fixtures are dished out. I mean, we all know that the authorities couldn’t give a flying fuck about any other teams, but this sort of thing just confirms it beyond any doubt. We’ve been shafted on 2 (3?) occasions and just basically been told to suck it up. This year it’s Hearts and Killie. On Sportsound the other day that dunce Billy Dodds said something along the lines of ‘There’s no way of keepin everyone happy and every team gets the rough draw sometimes’, but that certainly isn’t true of the Old Firm really, is it? Fuck em.

40/1 on paddy power. Cedric 30/1. I’ll now spend my lunchtime doubling them up with Grand National horses for a proper return.

He scored on his debut vs Morton. Generally he's in the box at corners.

Dunne 25/1 anytime, I know he hasn’t scored for us yet. Does he go forward for corners and free kicks? Can’t remember

I hope there's more enthusiasm within the squad for this game, than there seems to be among the support. Don't think I've ever witnessed such a 'low-key' build up for a semi-final in all the years I've been following the 'well. Just doesn't seem to be much appetite for the game at all

For sure I remember that. I am the Motherwell #7 you see after the penalty save.
