Motherwell under 19,s were beaten 4-0 by Celtic under 19,s at Creamery park Bathgate today ,this result sees Celtic crowned as champions. Once again no mention of the under 19,s on the official site .

MJC is only saying something that a lot of Well fans feel deep down ,its a big ask to beat an old firm team in a final ,they have the most cash so have the best players, they also have the media ,refs ,footie big wigs etc on there side ,in fact the whole game in Scotland is geared for old firm success. But it can and has been done ,as a wise man once said...the fastest don't always win the race and the most powerful don't always win the fight because time and unforeseen circumstances befall the great as well as the small.....

I reckon we will have to score 3 goals to win the match, that's in no way a negative remark ,i just feel that even if were playing well Celtic over the 90 mins will still score a couple of goals. I also think we have the firepower to score 3 goals against Celtic. Big Sutton heading the winner deep into injury time will do me fine.

With all manner of Scottish cup threads going to start up between now and May 21st would it be possible to have a separate forum to discuss these things.Would keep things a wee bit tidier at least.

Like your style Delboy

As the song says 2 out of 3 aint bad.

He said that Busta chap on steelmenonline really has the lot ,good looks, money, charm.

And he spoke so highly of you Busta.

I met Jim Griffin at an under 19,s game at Almondvale, footie wise hes involved with Dunfermline.What about Ian Angus ,ive always thought of Ian as the forgotten man of the cup final team. And he scored a great goal.

If im reading it right tickets can be bought at hampden tomorrow from 9;30 a.m until kick off.

the ticket winners Ricky Mullen Ian Winning David Cullinan

McCall has a few tough calls to make selection wise thats for sure , win and the guy is a hero, lose and im sure some of the guys on here will be pointing out the error of his ways.

PARTICK THISTLE are looking for a new manager after Ian McCall left his position at Firhill today. Could this be a job Craggs would be interested in.

Couple of snippets from Saints website that i thought interesting. 1]The great thing about our form is that Motherwell will completely underestimate us. 2]McCall would be expecting us to be defensive.He has been over-cautious at every Semi he has been in charge.I say go all out attack................ .... So how many semi finals has over cautious McCall been in charge of? And the great thing about your form being crap is that your opponents will underestimate you.

Would have to agree with you on that one mate Ross wouldn't shouldn't oust Hatley or Saunders from the full back position ,and that's no based on sentiment Ross has done well but he isn't any better than Hateley or Saunders.

Whats the situation with the players who have been out on loan wee g are they still under contract with Motherwell for another season. That was a really good under 19s we had last year saw them a good few times at Bathgate.

Motherwell lost what has became known to Well fans as the Allen Craig final.On the 11th of April 1931 Motherwell drew 2-2 with Celtic in the Scottish cup final ,the Steelmen had led 2-0 only for Celtic to score two late goals ,the second being an o.g by Motherwell centre half Allen Craig. Motherwell lost the replay which was played four days later on the 15th of April 1931 4-2. And before anyone asks naw I wasn't there.

£23 quid to sit in what is basically a glorified pigsty, all clubs Motherwell included need to get a grip.

This will be my first and probably only away league game of the season ,be a hard match but a think we might just do it, 1-2 victory and a top six finish.

I will be disappointed if we lose but not gutted, were not that good and the Saints aren't that bad that its a formality. And you just don't know what Motherwell will do .

My thoughts exactly weeyin I was only 17 at the time ,and I would think that would be the last time we were favourites in a semi-final,and we lost.

Whats that all about, I cant believe the stick this young guy gets. Clarky ,Fitzy, now Forbes.

Anyone know how the Motherwell t.v [coming soon ]is doing.
