With everything that has been done to us, to win the Scottish Cup would be a bigger GIRUY than all the boycotts or off the field campaigns we could organise. Winning it would be something back. Finally taking something back from Scottish football after they’ve ****ed us over so many times. Not a hand out, not a pay off, just Hearts going out there and taking what we deserve for ourselves. **** letting those mutants have another shot at the Scottish Cup. The fans of this club have given so much, it’s time HMFC gave a little back, and the Scottish Cup is a great place to start. I don’t want extra tickets, refunds or vouchers for pies, I want silverware, and the three teams left in this competition are teams that I want to beat more than most. Time for a bit of payback, and we need to stop feeling sorry for ourselves. It’s time to start dishing out the second prizes to our competitors now. Totally agree mate. Would send the perfect message to Doncaster and his masters at Celtic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jambonian Posted Friday at 10:29 Agree with the above. My only two concerns is that firstly we'll have a lack of game-time compared to them so they would be expected to be sharper and fitter, especially if their confidence is up with the decent start to the season they've had. Secondly, with Souttar out, Berra injured and Halkett not natural in that position we really need to get a dominant center half in. The strongest part of their team is their attack, last thing we need is to be pulled around at the back by the likes of Boyle and others, and at corners or free kicks etc. we will need someone solid in the air, it's also a good attacking option up the other end if we get corners etc. Apart from that, it would be very satisfying indeed to knock them off their perch.

Heart of Darkness Posted Friday at 10:54 What's the chances of the Final being scrapped if we beat Hibs (probably) & Aberdeen beat Celtic (hopefully). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jambonian Posted Friday at 10:58 (edited) It won't be scrapped if the SFA can stop that from happening. They've already engraved Celtic's name on the base of the trophy. No-one else will win it, refs will be briefed to make sure it won't happen. The Hearts/Hibs game is nothing more than going through the motions.

Where is this ‘championship on ice’ rumour coming from ? Any links ? I can see how League 1 & 2 might not go ahead but surely the championship can proceed. If clubs start going under during the season there are plenty rules and apparatus to deal with that. As we know from experience. Losing this season, even the shortened version were getting, would put us in deep trouble Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think after the 1998 Cup Final in the Ardmillan Hotel may have been the last time? 🤷♂️ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mundaydog Posted 18 hours ago I said it the other day on here regarding the Championship going ahead as even the SPFL isn’t that unbelievably stupid to delay our season and we end up playing Hibs with no games before it.. However I wouldn’t put it past the SPFL to ‘review’ the situation in the first week of November if Hibs beat us... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smith's right boot Posted 14 hours ago (edited) Two games from a sc win, if that were to play out it would be glorious. However, even although it is hibs, they are heavy favourites, even if the gap between the actual teams and us being in the championship is narrow, the fact we've still to kick a ball and they'll be a quarter of the season in is massively in their favour. They'll also be used to "top flight quality" games were as we'll Likley have played teams with barley a squad and hibs will be by far the best team we've played upto then. The fitness and intensity alone will be a level or two above what we would have played in for 7 months. We can, and I think will beat hibs, butif they do beat us it should not be a stick to beat the team with, admit it or not but outside of Hearts, Hibs will be heavy favourites and if they don't win it's a much bigger failure for them than it would be for us not to win. I'm quietly confident but if anything the lack of games could be the stinger, absolute shambles that they are allowed to build up that advantage over a team Tbh. A second sc final in a row would be sweet. Winning it would almost make even 2 years in the championship nothing more than a blip. The covid uncertainty is also an issue, either team could have a positive test and wreck their plans, more Likley for us as we'll play 4/5 teams that don't need to test before we play them, while they are playing in a more protected environment - another advantage for them. Chances of us losing half the team to a + covid test? Edited 14 hours ago by Smith's right boot Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
