It's the Cup Final at a neutral venue. Neither team is at home. Not much of a joke that. Just lazy using a standard poster really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveHFC Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Up at 7, breakfast, get ready, then jump the number 3 to gilmerton to get the supporters bus then off to Glasgow we go for a few pre-match drinks. I have a real good feeling about tomorrow. I don't know why just do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewolf_1980 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I've just remembered that, despite being strong favourites, we handed Ivan Golac's mediocre Dundee Utd their cup win in 1994, thanks to Ally Maxwell blootering the ball off Dave McPherson. I'm getting more worried now... Still, after Hampden I'm meeting the boys in town for the FA Cup Final (assuming ours doesn't go to extra time) and then the German Cup Final tomorrow night so win or lose, I'll have a good day. Oh how I'd love to win though. It would be just great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iainmac1 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Should be a good game. Either set of fans will see their team win the cup for the first time in their lifetimes which is quite something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every chance there would have been bother and I reckon the Police will have had something to do with the decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
