Polonia Gorgie Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 The European group stage football is obviously appealing, not just the money side of things but it can help our own coefficient and help towards making us a more attractive club to play for. However I think Aberdeen are rotten this season n we'd have a much better chance of beating them at Hampden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingantti1874 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 (edited) Through gritted teeth a celtic win for me. What will be will be in the final and if we get there we owe them one after robbing us twice . Another 6/7 million is enormous and long lasting for hearts, a massive step towards future and hopefully more regular success. tbh. It’s an absolute disgrace that the cup winner takes the spot earned by third anyway. I get why they did it in England as teams disrespecting the trophy by playing weaker sides but that will never be the case in Scotland. The only side who’d play a weakened team is rangers or Celtic so let the winner have the champions league spot if that’s the concern. typical SFA wanks Edited April 20 by kingantti1874 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboGraham Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 I understand it, I really do, but I hate that the 'prize' of some euro cash has reduced the Scottish Cup to a mere qualifying tournament. I just can't get on board with that. Aberdeen all the way today. I want to come up against the weakest side in the competition every single time. And if (if!) Aberdeen somehow do beat Celtic today and then go on to beat Rangers in the final then fair enough, it's their euro slot. Let's not forget the euro reward actually belongs to the cup winners. Let's focus 100% on securing it that way ourselves rather than hoping for Celtic or Rangers to do us a favour!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on the cusp I think of moving to the next level squad wise and increasing the gap over teams below us and closing it on the OF. I'd like to think group stage football will give us scope to splash more cash on wages and transfers for players like Armstrong and also help us improve our player trading. Guaranteeing that money is going to be huge for us this season I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its a bit defeatist, but the likelihood of us overcoming both sides of the OF to win the cup seems slim. I'd rather not risk the sheep pinching Europe from under our noses, so them going out would be a huge weight off our shoulders heading into Sunday.

Feel dirty wanting Celtic to win but due to self interest then I want the sheep out asap. I’d self combust if they win the cup and we missed groups stages. Sheep lose and we get a draw next week and it’s Kerching! Only by constant European group stages and money in the bank can we pull closer to 2nd and away from 4th. We need conference stage football for the next 2/3 years. Qualify from the group stage and then with a stronger squad hope to have a tilt at the Europa league. The riches that it brings could take our squad closer to a premier league challenge. Quite a verbose statement to justify shouting for Timothy but that’s my stance.

1971fozzy Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Makes me feel sick to the stomach to say it but a Celtic win please. 100% group football and the trips and finance that comes with it is the most important thing. And for the player we will be able to attract. It would also mean Aberdeen not getting their grubby hands on it or having the chance to. Important as they are a rival of sorts To win the cup by beating both arse cheeks would be unbelievable and it’s doable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
