Recommended Posts

2-1 Morton FT. 

 

A warning to the SPL sides v decent lower opposition.   Airdrie obviously present a tough test but we're in much better shape than Motherwell.

Andy Halliday scored two goals on Tuesday. On the bench tonight. Weird decision.

Why

Scottish cup winners go above 3rd place in Europe if the old firm get to the final it gives us a better chance of getting Europa league play of spot and of course more money let’s hope we can win it ourselves

Stupid comment. Aye awrite pal.

 

I don't watch football for money. I want to see Hearts win trophies. If Rangers and Celtic get pumped oot, our chances of winning the cup increase exponentially.

If Rangers and that horrible lot go out then I'd be very, very surprised if Heart of Midlothian do not go on to win that Association Cup.

And rightly so.  It’s a great achievement winning the Scottish Cup and celebrated by any non OF club who wins it with open top bus parades.  Never seen anyone doing that for finishing 3rd.  
 

Should 5th place in the league get a European place instead of the cup winners?  Where do you draw the line?  The League Cup is shite now that they’ve taken away it’s European place (I still want to win it though).

Celtic are stuttering over the past couple of games but you have to look at the bigger picture. They're still top of the league and still a side who have lost only 2 league games out of 25 this season. For anybody else that's remarkable form.

I will be surprised if they don't get themselves together and dump St Mirren. The same St Mirren they beat 3-0 at St Mirren park just last month.

Rangers will have beaten Ayr before the halftime whistle blows.

It’s not about us winning the Scottish cup I hope we do but finishing 3rd is our goal for financial reasons if rangers or Celtic get to the final what we don’t want is any other team winning the cup fecks our 3rd place

Indeed, whether people like it or not it's all about money. You can be guaranteed the board will have the same view you do.

To football fans winning the cup should be the most important thing.  Isn’t that what we follow Hearts for, in the hope that every now and then we will actually win something?  Leave the balance sheets to the board and the accountants and of course the Hoboconomists.

Nobody is disputing what fans might want, what they're saying is that the people who actually run the clubs, the boards, while they may even be fans themselves have a far more pragmatic unemotional view of it.

 

Because they know money is what can get you trophies, money is exactly why the OF have scores between them. People want to throw millions at Shankland but aren't interested in the economics?

The board are and rightly so.

Well let the board worry about that and enjoy your Saturday / Sunday afternoons watching the football. We’re not on the board!

If we as I hope getvpast airdrie I don't think anyone wants us in the draw, including old firm, especially if we get a home draw for the quarters. Which we should be due given the chances..

I still want old firm out. Forget the euro permutations. I want us winning the cup and that's far more likely if they're both out. If for example we can't beat Aberdeen in a final then fair enough but I'd fancy us against any of the other non old firm clubs just now.

Come on Hearts. Make us dream!!!

The OF get pumped out and we’re definitely bookies favourites for the cup. In that scenario it’s up to us to deliver. Far better scenario than wanting one of the arse cheeks to win the cup.

If you must but I’m not really interested in the board and this is a thread about the Scottish Cup.  Plenty other threads about the board.  Who cares what the board want, what do we want?  I want a win against Airdrie and then an easy home draw in the quarters then see who is left after that.

It's not exactly accurate to say anyone wants the OF to win the cup, apart from OF fans obviously. What they want is Hearts to get that Europa play off spot, and the chances of either of the OF winning the SC no matter who they play is very very high. While I would say the chances of Hearts taking 3rd are just as high.

 

The fan wishes don't align with historical and current reality.

Sorry but that Scottish Cup means more to me than a European place and money.

Im not talking about them winning that’s up to us I’m talking about one of them getting to the final which would secure our Europa cup play off spot

I predict both OF teams will go through,

 

Aberdeen really should go through,

 

The one other than Morton that could be a wee shock is the Inverness v hibs game, oh please that would be absolutely box office.

 

There for I fancy,

 

Morton

Rangers

Celtic

Aberdeen 

Inverness 

Livingston

Kilmarnock

Hearts

 

I predict we will draw Livi at home in the next round.

In an ideal world we’ll get past Airdrie. Then I’d like the sheep at home in the quarters, the hobos in the semis and a cup win against the green erse cheek in the final. It’s about time we stepped it up in the final and reality is, we have no one to fear bar ourselves.

 

Playing with confidence is doing wonders for the players moral as we have a strong kindred spirit and a winning mentality which is filtering down to our support. Let’s keep it up as match days haven’t tasted this good for a long time.

Yep. I just don’t get the argument that the club should somehow prioritise finishing third over trying to win the Cup so that we can get more money which will enable us to challenge for trophies … like the Scottish Cup.

 

:1132:
 

I sincerely hope absolutely no-one at the club buys into this kind of muddled thinking. There’s absolutely no conflict of interest in a club of our size busting a gut to win the Cup and finish best of the rest in the league. It’s not as if we’re playing cup ties every Wednesday or something. Another two wins and we’re at Hampden.

I see the GFA have shown sevco who is boss by appointing Collum for their high pressure game at home to Ayr. 

Still not been in charge of one of their league games since they demanded he was banned from their games
