Claret And Amber Ribbon On The Cup?

After a draw between Stenny and Stranaer we are no further forward of knowing who we play in the next round, however, I did see that only roughly 450 people went to see it and the game was reported as terrible. Does anyone know when the replay is?

 

The cup draw looks amazing now, and being a little optimistic, avoiding an SPL team next round, I think we could get to the final, with a little luck

 

Aberdeen v Dunfermline Athletic

Inverness Caledonian Thistle v Greenock Morton OR Airdrie United

Hamilton Academical v Dundee United

Stenhousemuir OR Stranraer v Motherwell

East Stirlingshire OR Buckie Thistle v Brechin City

Rangers v Celtic

Ayr United v St Mirren

St Johnstone v Partick Thistle

 

I would have any team in bold

 

Your thoughts?.....

Teams in bold to get through.

 

When you look at it that way then the next rounds could be pretty tough.

as much as it pains me, i can see Aberdeen winning one of the cups

 

they have already sold their 9000 allocation for the semi, and have requested more tickets

 

 

I can see baw-sack Broon winning some silverware with those Bastards!

 

As an aside, how many tickets have we sold for the Semi? I'm waiting till the ennd of the month to get mine... :blush:

Not a chance, we are spiralling downwards due to the lack of funds and a sparse squad. Not being pessimistic just a realist.

I would say you are being pessimistic. We have three guys on trial, two of whom had cracking performances in the bounce game yesterday and we are being linked with other players based down south. Yes there is a lack of funds but most other teams similar to us are in the exact same position except for Killie and Aberdeen who are simply putting themselves further into the red and risking the future of their club.

 

MON THE WELL!

No chance for us. Not even slightly.

 

I do worry Broon might win something with Aberdeen. That would be sickening. I fucking hated Aberdeen anyway (due to the large ammount of Lanarkshire Aberdeen fans I know) but now it's significantly worse.

 

Interesting to note the great deluded glory hunting sheep of the North come out the woodwork as soon as their team put a few results together.

Not even slightly? There are a couple of SPL clubs that have not even a slight chance of winning the cup. We're certainly not one of those SPL club...

 

I don't get this whole Aberdeen will win something! They'll be humped by Celtic - again while last time I checked Brown doesn't have an ultimate cup record... nor do Aberdeen.

Not even slightly I'm afraid. In my opinion at least. I'm not even remotely excited about the upcoming Semi Final, and I get the feeling neither is anybody else. Really strange since trips to Hampden are rare. That's just the general feel about the place. Even if McCall pulls a few signings or even loans out the bag and we hit a bit of unexpected form.....even then, we would still almost certainly have to dispose of one of the Old Firm.

 

Of course while we are still in both cups there is always obviously still a chance.

 

I'm not saying Aberdeen will win anything, but it is a big fear!

We'll find out who we face next on Tuesday... Replay

 

As for can we win it, why not? Bet no-one thought we'd win it in 91, or reach the LC final recently, or get to two LC semis in just a few years. You never know, Dundee United probably never thought they'd win the cup last season - especially when they were 3-1 down at Ibrox.

No we will not win Feck all, We'll have a half empty hampden in 2 weeks time and We'll get beaten by Rangers on that very day. (Obviously this is not my opinion this is my summary of this topic so far)

 

My true opinion is that We should look at the semi before the SC because 1/It's closer and 2/ its a priority.

 

However should we get a good team in the next round of the SC (i.e Celtic, Rangers Dundee tc.) We'll lose and get pumped out.

 

If we got through against SHM or STRNR, then get say St MIdden in the next, I'd fancy us for the semis and then if Lady luck supports the 'Well we'll get an over ambitious diddy team who we'll have a gala day against! But the Final would be against Celtic or Aberdeen! And we'll lose .
