skinnybob72 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Well put us out the SC when we were holders in 1999. We blew a 2-0 lead at Tynecastle and lost the replay a few years later and I'm sure they beat us in a LC semi at Easter Road. We must be due to put one over them, although with our away form it may need a replay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One note, Killie just beat well at fir park, we dealt with killie and should have won, i know it does not work that way but just saying anyway.

moby Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Jon Randall Souttar Berra Mitchell Adao Harry Milinkovic Naismith MacDonald Lafferty I think this is the strongest attacking line up that we can put out. But we will probably be playing not to concede with Cowie, Callaghan and 5 at the back...... Whatever the line up it's the biggest game of the season and im sure levein willl have them fired up, were long overdue a trip to Hampden! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_HMFC Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 2 hours ago, Shaggy2 said: A bit worried about the suspension tightrope but it is what it is. We'll just have to prepare for our semi without Adao, who'll be booked for looking the wrong way at McHugh from about 20 yards away. Berra and Souttar are well capable of getting through this without yellows, but I'm sure they'll take one if need be. Lafferty? Well, depends if his nut is screwed on the right way. I reckon we can take this, 1-0. We seen the ref be very lenient on John McGinn last week because he knew he'd be suspended for picking up another yellow. I guarantee the ref will be card happy with our players today. Any excuse to get it right up us IMO. Paranoid? Probably Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DVB Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Think the lessons from the Killie game are: Amankwaa deserves a start (I would put him in for Cowie). Smith is a poor replacement for Mitchell (I would go for Moore). We need a sub who can replace Lafferty if he has run himself into the ground (thought he had a good 70 mins but did nothing in the last 20 mins).

Thommo414 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 If any of our players get booked, we could do with the to replay to have them available for the semis.

Jambos_1874 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 This is a really tough one to call; definitely winnable for both teams. For me it has 1-1 written all over it though. I'd actually take that right now, get them back to Tynecastle and finish off the job. A semi-final is at stake here so let's actually go out and attack them. We have a superior squad to Motherwell.

Agree, a switch to 4-2-3-1 would solve allot of the current teams goal scoring problems. Unless it's part of Mitchell's loan deal, that he must play at full-back, I'd even play him as a left winger, in addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jammy T Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 17 hours ago, Victorian said: It's obviously a closely balanced game so marginal things can make the difference. The same application as the previous cup games + no daft mistakes/cards should be enough. If we're off the pace we'll maybe scrape a replay. Interestingly I went to an event last week where Rasmus Ankersen spoke about precisely this sort of thing. Because football is such a low scoring game the result of a game is significantly more subject to being influenced by random events and referee decisions He gave a really interesting analysis of why the season after Newcastle finished 5th a few seasons back this was followed by them being 19th the next season and why such a fall was statistically predictable and why the Newcastle board were complacent in not improving their squad given these statistics.
