Heartsofgold Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Just under 30 hours till kick off. My gut is already doing somersaults. The butterflies are massing. God I love and hate this feeling with equal measure. On the one hand, we have a chance to see our team become legends, on the other, the chance of a very shitty trip home. Come on ma boys, bring the Cup back to Gorgie. HHGH!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldie83 Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 (edited) I know I’ll watch the 3 cup finals tonight. 98,06 and 2012 and be awake till 3…….wake up at 6……..piss her off clambering around the room looking for my scarf……breakfast will consist of a coffee and bacon roll followed swiftly by a can of Stella. Out the door at 8 and in Stratties by 9. The butterflies will never leave me till 16:55……..😬 Edited May 20 by goldie83 Spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlimOzturk Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I am going with no expectation of a win. Will make winning all the more sweeter and also help dull any deafest inflicted on us Playing a European finalist tomorrow. So for us to win would be a monumental upset imo.

suds66 Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I am completely relaxed, I have no real expectations about us winning the game. My cup final was beating that deluded rancid shower at the semi final. That said I hope we have another famous win to celebrate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasAndy Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Defo have butterflies over what could be but I was much more nervous for the semi. We just couldn't afford to lose that game. Tomorrow is a different pressure. We all know we are big underdogs so we don't have the weight of expectation BUT the thought of just how good it would be to win is what is swirling around my head constantly. This could be huge.

frankblack Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 (edited) I'm more nervous about actually getting there and back on the train thanks to the Scottish Government. As for the match, I give us next to no chance if we turn up carrying injuries. No point in wasting nervous energy on something we are odds on to lose.

Ron Burgundy Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Going with no expectations, just looking forward to a good day on the bevy with my youngest son and mates. I just hope we are still in the game for the second half. Being two or three down at half time means the second half is pointless. We wont be doing another late rally like we did against celtic against this Rangers team IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jock _turd Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 No nerves for me... We are not expected to win and as long as the boys put on a show of maximum effort that will do for me...

I remember shouting my lungs out at him to blow the ****ing whistle. the sense of relief, euphoria and delight when he did has never been repeated in my life. Not together and in the same way.

Marvin Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I've been fine, so far. Day off today. Tidied flat. I fly from Bristol this evening. Having a few beers with my brother then bed. I suspect the nerves will kick in, but if I keep myself busy then I won't have to think about it. It's tomorrow when I'm most likely to feel it.
