[Matchday] Scottish Cup Final- Celtic V Hearts, Sunday 20th Dec, KO 14:15

On another day Naismith gets a red before half hour mark.
On another day Eduard scores 4.
On another day the gaffer makes changes when it is obvious to everybody they are desperately needed.
On another day the subs make sense.

 

On another day I don't have a heart attack.

 

I know how you feel m8. I am physically drained and was just lucky it wasn't a case of die another day with my auld ticker

 

We have done a quadruple treble. Feels like we haven't though

 

End of an era. Hope we all take in because we're never seeing anything like this again. Happy to be alive to see it and share it with my Grandad and Uncle.

 

Some achievement, which will never be seen again, and that should be the main focus tonight.

However game summed us up this season, first half showed when were on it and pressing teams and in our rhythm were still a good side, second half showed we desperately need a good goalkeeper, we need another centre half, unfortunately Scott Brown is done and that there's something just not right within the squad.

 

No its a fair point,browns a passenger these days and needs replacing but i do think we need a decent keeper aswell.

 

Any pictures of Craig Leveins post match coupon yet?

 

Thought we were near excellent in the first half apart from the opening 5 minutes where Hearts started well.

Christie's goal was superb and I'll give Lennon credit for playing him. He said in his pre-match interview that Christie was playing as he is more of a goal threat as opposed to Frimpong. So that worked out for him.

2-0 is the most precarious scoreline in football and I do feel that a bit of complacency set in. The gestures from Brown towards Naismith and Halliday gave them unnecessary fuel. I usually like that type of stuff (especially when it's aimed at those rancid Huns) but Brown should have waited until the game was stone dead.

As soon as Hearts got the early goal the whole momentum of the game shifted and all of our vulnerabilities were exposed. It was inevitable at that point that the rest of the game was going to be a struggle. I don't want to blame any players specifically but at 2-0 up, Soro is the sort of player that helps to break up attacks and protect the defence. Without his tactical and defensive nous, we were all over the place.

Delighted with the final result. It wouldn't be Celtic if we done it the easy way. An unprecedented period of domination that will never be beaten or matched.

Lennon hasn't had much luck this season but he's very fortunate to be in the dug out. I'm glad he now has a treble under his belt but we could have easily thrown that away today. Still conceding from set pieces. Still surrendering solid leads. I don't want this season to be over, I want to fight tooth and nail for the league but I do want Lennon to go.

 

Embarrassing comment, sour faced Hun *

 

HAZZARD * it for him by saving the penalty,,,,,

 

Delighted with the win, but the performance 2nd half on was shocking.
That's my nerves only starting to calm down now haha.
History was made. Hope you all enjoyed the result and have a good night celebrating. HH

 

Just found out Craig Gordon has only ever lost 1 final

 

I don't care about the performance. If you asked any Celtic fan 5 years ago that we would win 4 trebles in a row but we would win it in penalties in 2020 I don't think any of us would care how it was won

 

YAAAAAAAASSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

Disrespectful Penalty CSC

 

I apologise to him, i thought he was going to * up as he had a nightmare game. Then he proved me wrong.
