BBC's coverage of anything non old firm Today was the first time I had read the article, and I work there. And that's why things like that get repurposed from time to time, because although it might be an "old" article, it's new to others who haven't seen it before. I've a Dundee Scottish Cup article I flog on the site every year around this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda Posted January 15, 2023 Author Share Posted January 15, 2023 Pitch is going to make it interesting. Might work in our favour and slow down Sakala and Tillman who are the big threats. Colak out (unless Beale is at it) and Morelos more overweight than I am, so it's those two I worry about and a heavy pitch makes it harder for them AS LONG AS WE DON'T DEFEND TOO DEEP. Capitals are justified on this one. I would have suggested dropping Miovski and I would have liked to see Hayes or Duncan in behind instead, but now I want to see two strikers. I can actually see him scoring too. 1-1 I think and into extra-time then who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fine to regurgitate an article, but don't lie about it by saying that you caught up with the players and simply change the name of the cup sponsor to suit. At the very least, delete the comments from the article so that we don't read posters telling us that we've got a great chance of beating Brendan Rogers' Celtic side.

redordead Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 All credit to Kennedy. Great run. And as much as I slate his ability, it was a tidy finish. Now we need to have a go for a second and kill this off. We've been lucky twice, need to have a go at them to take the pressure off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlg1903 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Jesus wept, Stewart had had a decent game up to that too. That would have been a straight red twenty years ago ffs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DantheDon Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Already questions about whether Stewart has what it takes to be captain before the game. Listening on the radio so I've not seen it but sounds like he lost his composure which is not what you expect from the captain. If we were to somehow get through who's playing center back for the final. No Stewart or Scales.

DantheDon Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 While I agree its a lot of added time BBC has Stewart sent off at 93 mins which is within the 3rd minute. Don't know if that was accurate but its still down to Stewart to not lunge in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redordead Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Never really deserved the win today but still had some chances. Terrible error for the red. Still lightweight up top. Disappointing wee never had a real go until the last five minutes of extra time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeeBass Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Genuine question. Since I first started following the club season 1989-90 how many times have we actually shown up and produced our best in a Cup Semi-Final. It can't be that many. Another embarrassing time I'm preparing myself for from local people taking the absolute mick out of me and my so called football team. And you guys wonder why I've been wanting to walk away from football altogether. Honestly don't know why we bother getting on that bus down to Glasgow sometimes.
