    I hope your right. I think though given how they parked the bus against us for the 0-0 draw at Celtic park recently that will be the game plan next weekend as well. So we will need to be more creative and certainly more clinical in front of goal.

    I expect it to be some game, it's really all us and them have to play for this season. They will probably get steamed into us like never before and risk red cards etc just to try and knock us out and get a Cup after all their failures they seem to be a team on the decline as well and might not see Hampden for a while after this and we will need to be up for the battle.

    They'll be desperate for set pieces against us with Boyata out and them having Cosgrove, Considine and McKenna who do well in the air so we need to be clever about giving away fouls and corners. We can't play Ntcham as he gives away fouls for fun in the type of areas they'll want them.

    Not sure what sort of team id pick but i'd leave out all the soft players and bombscares like Jozo, Toljan, Ntcham, Sinclair.

    Hampden's pitch always seems soft as well and players seem to tire quick on it so i'd like to keep Burke for the last half hour.

    Big Eddie is going to steal the show and fire us to another final.

    I would say the exact opposite. McInnes likes to play football in the air and we are struggling to break teams down. I expect this to be dreadful to watch all round.

    Some of our tightest game's against them have been when they've played that against us. We smashed them silly the 3 nil game up there like that though with Dembele scoring 2 and Rogic and KT beasting them..

    Need an early goal in this. Hoping we go direct and Edouard is told to play on the shoulder instead of dropping off..

    Took us a while to get used to it but since then, when we have told Eddy to drop deep and for the wingers to go in beyond when he does, they can’t cope. Because they have a CB man marking him and there full backs aren’t good enough yo anticipate the run.

    Another week of Rogic getting up to speed as well for that big pitch..

    They cannot stop him whatsoever..

    Shinnie is a killer for them. We should do them but I am slightly more nervous..

    to be honest, i think Saturdays draw was the best thing that could have happened, if we had humped livi, we could have fallen flat on Sunday, overconfidence etc, but i think the team and staff will be right up for it now!!!! they will have been disappointed in themselves and will be wanting to make amends!.... it was the worse result for Aberdeen......big Hampden pitch, rogic with room to play, eddie with room to run, i think we will have a good night, im sure we will get to final, and what a night that could be for all the fans!.... can you picture it!, winning the treble treble on the Saturday!..... unprecedented celebrations !.....we have not failed in the big games!.....this will be our day!.... im sure of it!

    I’m * myself about this one and I don’t know why, I’m almost always the eternal optimist when it comes to Celtic.

    It’s going to be * tough.

    Reckon this will be a proper nail biter with us just about scraping through. Good old fashioned cup tie.

    Feckin Premier 1. Hopefully streams will behave a bit better this Sunday, but can’t understand why BBC One Scotland also covering Diet Huns v ICT on Sat but not our game on the Sunday.

    Premier get first pick and always choose us and the Huns games.

    The final will be on the BBC at least (should we make it) :fear:

    Last 15 games vs Aberdeen.

    13 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss.

    Draw last game and a 1-0 loss that allowed them 2nd :fear:

    Aye, shame BBC don’t cover both as well seeing as they’re semi’s. Briefly looked at subscribing to Premier, but £10 seems a lot for what is mainly *. In saying that pay nearly £30 for BT Sport :43:
