So we'd want a free agent that wasn't cup tied that was physically fit, match fit, good enough to start but not good enough to be currently employed that could fit into our system within a couple of weeks? I'd rather play a Frear/Rose front pairing than risk that.

Alfredo, Last minute winner.

Miller couldn't play for us, even if he was cup-tied. Were we to sign anyone, they would have had to have been a free agent by the end of the January transfer window and lets be honest, anyone who fits that bill isn't going to get sharp enough to make a difference in four weeks.

I'd prefer it if we got a couple of million for Carson and Hartlepool's cut kept them afloat.

Purple rain by prince, but where the chorus usually says purple rain - Curtis main. Get this belted

Feel free to make into a big giant flag or mug.

I'd happily see us contravene the Geneva convention if it won the cup.

I would be delighted.

Lets be honest if we beat Celtic on 19 May by playing a way that would see football banned not a single person on this forum will give a shit.

The first name that came to my head too [emoji1] Other than him, I wonder what that Dieter Van Tournhout fella who scored the winner for Killie against Celtic in the LC final is up to... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Guys, I have been coming to Hampden for the last 3 years to watch the Scottish cup final and enjoyed every single one. I'd be interested if anyone may know of any spare tickets once announced. im a season ticket holder at Everton for the last 41 years, and as I say, i love the final and would love to cheer on the Steelmen. Thanks for taking time to read my post.

Just me. Maybe they can come to the final next year when we are defending champions.

You're welcome.

If there are injury concerns up-front for the final, could always sign Kenny Miller.

Aye, you will but then you'll see me before that as well. You got my ticket yet ? Which one of the kids is sleepin on the couch so I can have a bed ? COYW !!!!!! lets hope the good guys win this final

I reckon Kipre will break our transfer record before summer 2019.

Wee bit on Hutchy from the Rancid today: Shaun Hutchinson details how Motherwell's 'grounded' approach set him up for Premiership push with Millwall Shaun Hutchinson watched with awe as his old club Motherwell defied the odds to seal four trips to Hampden this season. But the defender hopes to pull off an even greater achievement by helping Millwall clinch a place at Wembley. Hutchinson was part of the last Steelmen side to play in the Scottish Cup Final seven years ago when they lost 3-0 to Celtic. The Fir Park side, who lost this season’s Betfred Cup Final to the Hoops after beating Rangers in the last four, crushed Aberdeen yesterday in the Scottish Cup semis to line up another showpiece. Hutchinson is full of admiration for the way Well have punched above their weight – just like they did during his five-year spell when the Steelmen regularly qualified for Europe. And the 27-year-old compares Motherwell’s success to current club Millwall who have enjoyed a stunning run in the English Championship that has put them in the hunt for a play-off spot. Hutchinson, who moved to the Den from fellow London outfit Fulham, is loving life at the Lions and admits his grounding at Well helped him develop into a top talent. He seems similarities in both clubs with their working-class roots – Millwall were founded by Scottish dockers while Motherwell’s was once at the centre of Scottish steel making. Hutchinson said: “It’s early doors and we still have to make the play-offs – but if Millwall get promotion it would be the highlight of my career. “Ever since I was a little boy I’ve wanted to play in England’s top flight because it’s one of the best leagues in the world. “It’s surreal when you look at the table and see we’re fighting for the play-offs rather than trying to stay up. Harris has done a great job and has been brilliant with me. “Millwall are similar to what it was like at Motherwell. It’s a small, tight-knit family club who are probably overachieveing. “At Well we were finishing near the top most seasons and reached the Scottish Cup Final in 2011 despite not having a massive wage bill. “I’m still in touch with some of the older boys like Keith Lasley and Steven Hammell who have moved into coaching at the club. “But I always look out for Well and it’s great to see them reach Hampden four times. “Playing in the Cup semi and final were my highlights at Fir Park. “My time at Motherwell was a great grounding. You get younger guys at big clubs who maybe get smoke blown up them up a little bit – but at Fir Park you were taught to keep your feet on the ground. “I learned the basics and I’m grateful for that. I learned how to be a man and I was playing for my lifestyle rather than to wear nice shoes or have fancy tattoos or hairstyles. “You are playing because you enjoy playing and want to win for the fans. It’s stood me in good stead.”
