Kiwidoug Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I'm not going to be too quick to write off Celtic completely but I do see them as rank outsiders. Assistance from the match officials will likely be in their favour but we will prevail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boof Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 (edited) Scotland actually qualified in 1997 for the '98 WC - the 'one team in Tallinn' qualification group . 1998 saw Hearts win the Cup and the Hibs go down doo dah, doo dah. So...this being the 2019/20 Cup and the 2020 Euros with the Cup being played in 2020 but the Euros being played in 2021, we could win the 2020 Cup and be the team that [s]went[/s] were unethically voted down from the 2020 season whilst admiring Scotland's qualification. Ah, **** it - let's just win the Cup this time around and again in May. That'll give us the hat-trick of deserved, moral victories after ratface Collum ensured his beloved hoopsters snatched it last time around.

Not the same, but I am becoming accustomed to watching us win from the comfort of my warm home, with a nice bottle of wine. Not quite the same, but on the 20th December, and the weekend before Christmas, I will still enjoy it, and will celebrate as much, and with as many people as I can.

They will go to those living within the local authority area. Guaranteed tickets for us season ticker holders living in Glasgow. Happy days. What would be more interesting is if Glasgow was still in level 3, but Edinburgh was down into level 1. Do the SFA move the game to Murrayfield (or even Easter Road) with fans in the stadium or keep it at Hampden behind closed doors? Unfortunately I suspect I know the answer. Although if cost is the issue, we could always agree to hold it at Tynecastle free of charge. I'll tell you what BTW this is not out the realm of possibility if you use logic and common sence. Imangine the scenario where Edinburgh is tier 1 and Glasgow is tier 3/4 in December. Edinburgh allowing percentage of fans back into stadiums. The sfa would be foolish not to allow the cup final to be broadcasted from murrayfield with fans in attendance. Imangine 25000 fans inside murrayfield with both sets having 10,000 each. It would be amazing. We can only dream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzas right boot Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Not beyond us. We have big game players and can compete in a one off game, however celtic could also run away with it if they score early. We need all our key players fit and playing well. No **** ups ( at all preferably) but 100% not early doors, us being 2/3-0 down at HT would be a shitter. We'll need to be a little more compact and tighter at the back than I'd normally prefer but we must not drop too deep either. So all said and done - 6-3 Hearts.

Jump on a bus and train for two hours before as well, then walk 2 miles. Also, after the game do the same but let the first two trains go past so it takes 3/4 hours to get back home.

Tier 2 - suggests so. Edit - I think measures to get a decent level of supporters in would be:- - Season tickets holders only, checked by address on data base. - No post return to stadium by squad and officials. - Staggered (or staggering) leaving times - Club paying for external stewarding to move people on.

Batistuta87 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 My Celtic supporting in-laws are very nervous about this game.
