Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 For me it was when the final whistle went against Celtic in the semi. As soon as it was confirmed it was us v them, there wasn't even a shadow of a doubt. When did you folks know? 1-5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flem Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 When Barr opened the scoring, the nerves were gone and I knew it was going to be our day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iantjambo Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Was going to say when Beatties penalty hit the net. In truth I tried not to be over-confident and I genuinely was nervous in case somehow the nightmare scenario came to pass, after Rudi scored our 2nd I knew it was our day, McJakeys goal never really fazed me.

Bauld Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I had supreme confidence as soon as we were past Celtic but I knew we had won it when Black went through Griffiths in the middle of the park. It showed very early on what team had turned up that day. From then on it was only a matter of time before we broke them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grado Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 When I shook Paul Hartleys hand outside Hampden an hour before the game. Settled any lingering nerves knowing that the H1b5 slayer was there to witness history in the making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darkwhisky7 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 When Kujabi got booked, you just knew he was the weakness and I thought he was a cert to get another card, didn't think it would be so early and that we would get the penalty from it, but yes I thought that was an important point in the game in the first half.

Suspect Device Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Was confident all the way. 9am in the Roseburn telling all the nervous chaps that it'll all be fine, we're much better than them. And at h.t when they got the nerves back I was busy saying it was sll right, we'll win 4-1.... Got that one miles wrong !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul Allen Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Felt they had the momentum going into the break after their goal on the stroke of half-time, wasn't until the penalty/dismissal that I knew we were definitely going to win.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Being honest I did not have great confidence in Jamie Mac back then so I would say when the pen went in for 3-1. I would normally have great confidence in walking all over them but with all the hype that day and knowing what was at stake it took longer than usual to start the partying.

Mikey1874 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 fourth goal we nearly had it won when Suso shot was cleared off line in reality we had it won by 5 minutes Gowser's tackle at right back showed we had a right attitude and were on top but until the goals go in its never sure and by the way if they had kept the same intensity after 4-1 it could have been any score Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomullins Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I was at the hospitality lunch and heard Robbo & Hartley speak before the game. When Robbo said "We have everything, they have nothing" I knew it was ours. My nephew didn't eat for 3 days before the game caused by nerves, I told him that we didn't need to worry about Hibs, only Hearts because if we turned up we would annihilate them.

King of the North Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Being honest, was a bit nervous in the morning. Had a couple before boarding the bus, and felt nerves disappear.

Paris 84 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I knew as soon as the first round was drawn that no team could touch us. There was no way we weren't winning the cup that season. The amount of financial doping we were involved in, meant NO TEAM would live with us. I do appreciate that others did try to compete by signing loan players here there and everywhere. However, when you have the player you've paid the highest transfer fee for (Templeton) not even stripped, it shows that we weren't on a level playing field. We had players involved which if we're being honest, shouldn't have been playing in the SPL at the time. I'm thinking; Grainger, Taouil, Elliott, Prychynenko,, Robinson & Barr. I feel like we cheated!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as it was confirmed it was us v them, there wasn't even a shadow of a doubt. When did you folks know? 1-5 Accurately predicted a tanking in the weeks before the final, on here and to workmates. I know a few jambos that had "a bad feeling" but I roundly mocked their stupidity. There was a few lads next to me at the final that were shiting it when they scored. I was pissing myself laughing at the hibs fan's celebrations and reminded the boys next to me that the vermin would need to score another 2 goals without conceding. What a day.

blairdin Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I knew as soon as Beattie put his shirt back on that the Scottish Cup was in the bag. The final against them was never a case of if, but a case of how many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunblestjambo Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I knew about 48 hours before kick-off, after watching an 'inspirational' video on pointonthedollwheretheytouchedyou.net. IIRC a falling over cardboard cut out cup served as a backdrop while Kujabi and other miscreants offered soul wrenchingly unmotivational soundbites. Lewis Stevenson was particular cringeworthy viewing. After watching that I knew regardless of all the 'it's our year'/mystic meg/warrior poet shyte that they where absolutely bricking themselves.

Ando senior Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Sitting in a boozer in ORLANDO before the game started a old guy sat next to me explaining that he was a hibby And that hearts were a stronger team than hibs I asked him if that was the white flag going up the pole he didn't answer At half time my misses was a bit nervous I calmed her down by telling her if we can't take another 3/4 goals of them I would be gutted On a side note I gave my son my ticket for the game seat no 0105 !

Five to One Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 About a week before the final, I was feeling nervous. A work colleague and I were talking about it and he mentioned he'd spoken to Ian Black a couple of days before, asking him if he thought we'd beat Hibs. His reply was that we'd f***** hammer them. May have been bravado from Blackie, but felt confident about it after hearing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbo Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I was nervously confident during the build up: a bit like waiting for the results of an exam that you think you did well in, but you don't know for sure until you've got the results. The only time that I was worried during the match was immediately after their goal. However, I quickly relaxed when they then brought on Sproule for a defensive midfielder. They needed more possession, but that change was going to give them even less, and it was too early for a gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
