[Official TC Thread] Celtic vs The Rangers, Scottish Cup Semi Final April 17th, 12pm SKY SPORTS 2

Hope its not Saturday, travelling back from Manchester that day, if on Sunday ill be able to go to the game if I get a ticket.

 

It will probably be moved to 12.30pm on the Sunday.

I'm surprised at the confidence in here given recent form. Maybe I've just got the fear

I'd be happy to see something like that.

Decent bench with the likes of GMS, Izaguirre, Allan, Mulgrew, Sviatchenko and more.

 

If they try & attack us, we will rip them apart. If they sit in we need an early goal to settle the nerves as they will hit us on the break, which we struggle with.

 

Should have the player quality to see us through..

The manager has shown little evidence he can prepare us for a big game..

 

I think they will go for it, which will play right into our hands. If we get Rogic back in form, Roberts and Allan a run of games, Janko back in as well we will absolutely demolish them. They are due a humping this season.

 

Cole will not - nor should he - be anywhere near the starting XI.

Also Erik out the team for Boyata?!

 

I honestly don't know. One thing I do know is that they will be 100% up for it, can't say the same about us though. If we do decide to fight them I think we will win, we just have the better players.

 

Actually think CKR would hammer these *, seems the kind of guy who would thrive in this kind of game.

 

He's the type of guy that would get sent off though, wound up far too easily, first game he played with us he stamped on a guy for nothing * sake :smiley-laughing002:

 

They are a far better team and we are a far worse team than when we played them last.

Of course i want us to win, but with the state of this team, Hampden, DOB referees.... any number of things could cause us to * it up.

I'm undecided. Depends on our form before hand. Not holding my breath on that improving much before then either..

 

Absolutely spot on . I would add Christie, give them game time between now and then and we will run/play them off the park . But alas our manager will not do that .

 

Form will count for little going into this, with the atmosphere the players will need to show their experience and quality on the day.

 

Some of the hun delusions are off the scale, the taigs have never had a team like this attack them before, if the taigs try and attack us they will get creamed, they will set up like hibs and falkirk when they play us, defend and try and catch us on the break

Ironic eh Falkirk and Hibs beat them

 

Can't say im confident but if Deila doesn't play the right squad I think we are * and wont be surprised if they beat us with a goal. Orc at work today saying we will get blootered 4-0 from them They are delusional.

 

Tbh that would be the best way to play against them, they leave themselves far too exposed when they attack.

 

CKR in the number 10 role? Why?

 

Hun media delusions

Last time they beat us they chucked it at 2-0, but they know thats not us, if we score 3 we will keep going to 6 or 7 in the end

i think this guy is either on a wind up about the 1957 league cup final or he needs * sectioned
