Snake Plissken Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Wonder who'll we get in the quarter finals then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Merse Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Disagree. We've played Falkirk in both cups in recent times, and Partick in the Scottish back in 06. Plus it's at home to lower league opposition. Low home crowd that will turn if we're not 1-0 up by half time and loads of away fans having a party regardless of whether we pump them or not. In terms of a day out maybe it's not great but in terms of progressing and going on a good run it's perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecce Romanov Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I agree great draw, but lets not get too ahead of ourselves. I think the St J game tonight will be tricky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super_vlad Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Yes Rangers V Celtic Not bad draw for us, am i remembering correctly didnt we have to play St Johnstone and Partick Th on way to final in 1996 we beat patrick on route in 2006, cracking goal from cesankunas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaka Demus & pliers Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 In terms of a day out maybe it's not great but in terms of progressing and going on a good run it's perfect. Exactly. What's all this nonsense about it being a poor draw? All we should be hoping for is a home game and avoiding the Old Firm, them playing each other makes it even better.

Tynie b Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Hope we aren't as complacent in the dressing room as some on here about tonight!!! Not even interested in who we have until it's definitely "we"!!! About the draw - the Uglies together - lovely!!! I was pretty surprised reading this thread...Some people never learn, we still have to beat St Johstone tonight. It won't be as easy as some on here obviously think it will be!!

gorgie_rebel Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 The uglies drawn together at this stage There will be a lot of hand wringing and appologies going on right now between the GFA and Ipox and the Tattiebowl Feckin brilliant.

Jackie Moon Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I think that this draw could actually be good for our league chances, Rangers and Celtic now have another derby to distract them imagine there's a draw and they have to play a replay! obviously it doesn't mean they will drop points to other teams but I think it definitely increases the chances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdannyb Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Not that I'm insanely optimistic or anything but after this draw, we've definitely got the cup in the bag. Hearts for the double - easy !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janie jones Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Cautiously optimistic but knowing Hearts it is never easy. With the right attitude and application we should be looking at a quarter final place. Was just thinking yesterday when was the last time the Old Firm were drawn together before the semi final stage. Also given that are both very beatable it could be a very open competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victorian Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 everyone is going to be 'up for it' even more so than normal now. the whole smash is up for grabs and nobody will want to sit back and watch someone else reap the benefits of a cup final / cup win. i take it all back, we are very lucky to have a home draw and potentially another home draw. if we do 'a hibs' then we only have ourselves to blame.

Deevers Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Lets just get the job done tonight before looking too far into the future. Saints will be no pushovers tonight and our team will have to be at there best to come out on top. I'm sure that JJ will hammer that home to the players before they go out onto the park tonight.

Steve_Jersey_HMFC Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 we have to get tonight out the way first anyway, and considering we havnt yet beat st johnstone at tynecastle since they came back up (only 2 games mind) it isnt a foregone conclusion If we do get through, I'd much prefer Partick as Falkirk have knocked us out the cup twice since we beat them at Ibrox in 98 (2003 and 2009), and they put us out the wee cup this year. Last time we played Partick we won the cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
