tom_widdows Posted August 8 Report Posted August 8 Yes I shall be attending. Decided against standing in the open as that 'terrace' seemed pretty precarious when it was empty let alone with 1000+ on it. With a proper terrace or standing in a plastic seat area there is less chance of a 'David Busst' should you fall forward in a goal celebration Quote
Jute Posted yesterday at 19:50 Author Report Posted yesterday at 19:50 Other results Celtic 4-1 Falkirk Rangers 4-2 Alloa Partick 2-0 Ayr St Johnstone 0-1 Motherwell St Mirren 1-1 Hearts (St Mirren win on penalties) Much to everyone’s surprise (okay the media and Hearts fans) Hearts are out and not winning the treble.

Panda Posted yesterday at 20:58 Report Posted yesterday at 20:58 Now, I don't subscribe to the notion cup draws are rigged. However... In Celtic's last 24 domestic cup games, 20 of them have been in Glasgow. The tie with Partick Thistle now makes that 21 from 25. The four that were not in Glasgow - three of them are relatively close by (Paisley, Motherwell, Kilmarnock) with the furthest being Tynecastle (which is less than an hour away). Yet if they make Hampden again (in their own city) expect plenty of attendance chat and talk about loyalty and big game fans, while criticising Aberdeen (should it be us) for not filling the our end for a lunchtime/evening kick-off.

Panda Posted yesterday at 21:10 Report Posted yesterday at 21:10 As for our cup draw (which, for balance, is our 10th home game from 24 cup ties), I'm to blame/thank for us getting Motherwell. A rather excited Motherwell fan at work - buoyed by beating Rangers 1-1, hammering St Mirren 0-0, and smashing Clyde on penalties - has bet me that Motherwell will finish above Aberdeen this season. So of course we will now face them back-to-back, home and away. Quote

Didn't the new club have something like 12 home games in a row when they reformed - I seem to remember asking my loon what were the odds of that happening as part of his Uni course involved statistics and he said it was 1 in 4096, so nothing underhand there. 1 Quote
