luckydug Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Think people are being over generous to AT with their recollections of the 2012 match. We rested quite a few players that day and missed a lot of chances including a penalty. Although their goal may have been onside the flag was up before their player hit the ball and the Hearts defence had already stopped. They did push forward a bit towards the end but the joker who was making out they were all over us clearly wasn't even at the game. We were never really in any danger. Approach this game properly and it should be no problem. That means no fannying about with unnecessary changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Approach this game properly and it should be no problem. That means no fannying about with unnecessary changes. Just watched the highlights on YouTube and read a couple of match reports. I think you're a bit off the mark on the offside goal. Flag might already be up but no real sign anyone that mattered had stopped. But overall I'd agree that the game was heavily one way traffic and 9 times out of 10 would have finished as a comfortable win. I think they were very fortunate not to be reduced to 10men at the penalty for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity. But what I find bizarre about the way this game is often described and was again in the media today is as if that offside goal would have put us out. But it would have just led to a replay which we'd almost certainly have won. But this time round I'd like to think we'll start with something much closer to our strongest 11 than we did last time.

Shaggy2 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) What’s this lucky last time nonsense? They should have played 85 minutes with 10 men and we should have scored many more than we did. People have argued with me on here when I said we rode our luck in the semi with Ki’s two sitters and Jamie Mac having a blinder. Folk have insisted it was a tactical masterclass from Paulo. He’s bloody good if he planned those two misses. Auchenshoogle was lucky and Celtic was superb tactics? Aye, right! To this day, I stand by my thoughts on which game we were (more) lucky in, if I had to choose. When the scores were counted up, we’d put the ball in the pokey more times than the opponent in both games.

I seem to remember him playing in CM that day and giving a lot of encouragement to the younger guys. Was Webster not captain that day? I remember Zal not even being on the bench and Barr at CB, with no cover on the bench - which could have turned out a bit costly after he went off with a beast of a head knock! Blackie playing at CB still gives me nightmares! If we'd scored the early penalty the floodgates would have opened. Giving it to Mullen (who iirc was making his debut as Gowser was suspended) was not a good call. Although part of me thinks he was the penalty taker for the Under 19s, and with our shite penalty record I almost see the logic in it. It was definitely not a strong team we put out - it was one of Jamie Mac's early outings as Kello was just developing Vlad flu, 17yo(?) debutant right back, Barr at CB in place of Zal, Blackie was the only regular midfielder as Paulo hadn't played Rudi or Driver that often by that point, Robinson and Novikovas were not regulars, Smith up front with neither Elliott or Sutton even on the bench, Temps on the bench. I hope to **** Craigy goes with something resembling our strongest team for this one, barring anybody that may have any niggles. These west coast wanks need a proper memory of Tynie this time!
