Electric Blues

Fucking THREE now. Anybody want to buy two cup final tickets?

Two now, Anybody want to buy a cup final ticket?

Frear and Çiftçi in - no Tait or Kipre. Motherwell: Carson, Grimshaw, Cadden, McHugh, Main, Frear, Dunne, Aldred, Campbell, Çiftçi, MaguireMotherwell subs: Griffiths, Hendrie, Bigirimana, Bowman, Petravicius, MacLean, Turnbull

The Royal Family has form for this - his dad was named after Wullie Pettigrew.

I've never, ever had any problem picking up pre-booked tickets. Always seems quick & well-organised. YMMV.

Just got mine now - only 5 minutes and a dozen or so redials. Either I'm lucky (probably not, based on my lottery numbers this week) or the queue might be dying down a bit. Glad I had the foresight to call earlier in the week and book the bus separately!

Too true. For me, among plenty of other heroes, Ally Maxwell was the real standout of the '91 final. His subsequent shabby treatment really upset me at the time, and it's been great to see him back in the fold. We really can't NOT win this now! COYW.

He's the "ambassador" for the Exiles Club, and is hosting one of their events on the Friday night.

You're right enough, Saint Johnstone beat us too and finish 7th with 44 points. (I stopped thinking after they took the hypothetical points from Ross County.) It's still never going to happen.

I don't think I'll risk money betting on either scenario. Even though we'll almost certainly win the cup!

Not that I think for one single femtosecond that this will actually happen.

County are goners - they lose the next four and are relegated - 27 points St Johnstone beat County (and no-one else) - 41 points Partick win their next four - 40 points Hamilton win three - 39 points Dundee win two - 39 points Motherwell lose the next four - 39 points In your worst possible nightmare it could yet come down to goal difference for the play off spot.

Hibs 2 up against Celtic now, to delay any title celebrations. These ***** are beatable, all right.

As you were, then. Carson, Tait, Grimshaw, Cadden, Main, Bowman, Rose, Dunne, Aldred, Kipré, Campbell Subs: Griffiths, Bigirimana, McHugh, Frear, MacLean, Maguire, Scott

Main is running away with it already, and rightly so, so I'm voting for second place here. Even that's a tough call, but I've got Grimshaw just shading out Aldred - brilliant to see the old Liam is still in there.

I already stick in 20 quid every month, and as the (0.0000001% part) owner of this great club I hereby authorise this expense.

After agonising for several minutes between Campbell and Main, and bemoaning the fact that I couldn't give it to both of them, I solved the problem by voting for Tait. Surprised Aldred hasn't had a mention yet either.

Followed by a mass brawl in the tunnel, and an outbreak of norovirus the day before the semi. Or we could just pump their full-strength team like last time.

I always had a soft spot for Cleland. His old mum worked beside my old mum, and she was SO proud of him.

And we're at "home"

Resisted the obvious and went for Dunne. An absolute rock at the back, and he didn't give away any penalties. If he could just improve his passing he'd be absolutely immense.

Main's goal all day long. It might well have crossed the line anyway if he hadn't touched it, but it wasn't over beforehand.

McHugh started that whole move by blocking a hoofed clearance with his face. He was probably concussed again when he hit the shot. As the old joke has it, "Send him back out and tell him he's Pele."

Can't believe you can't believe it. How long have you been on here? Just for the record, I would prefer we finished top six, just saying that there are a few potential silver linings in the bottom six cloud.

Finishing 7th with 3 or 4 (or even 5) wins after the split would not be the worst thing in the world. It would be even better if we had a final trip to Hampden to look forward to.
