Gretna get to Scottish Cup final.

Have to say that it'd be absolutely wonderful if they could win it.

They've got as good a chance as anyone now.
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    He was outstanding. An absolute pleasure to watch. Just got back from Hampden about an hour ago, what an atmosphere! Oh how I took pleasure in watching those scum getting fucking leathered.

    I hope the SFA get something done about Sproule, that was a fucking disgrace.

    Aye, always had a soft spot for Sproule, him being Northern Irish, but that was out of order.

    It was stupid having the match at Hampden don't you think? Murrayfield would have been such a better option. I'm back home in Ireland but I definitely would have stayed in Edinburgh and went if it had of been at Murrayfield.

    It was annoying, aye. All the fucking hassle of getting through to Glasgow when Murrayfield is a 20 minute walk away. Just goes to prove that Tony Mowbrays shite excuse that Hearts would have an "advantage" was a load of bollocks.

    But ah well, Hampden is the home of Scottish football, and it was nice to see the JT's do well there.

    this is not a dig a Scottish football, but is it common for Hampden park to have so many empty seats for a cup semi final?

    No, Hibs just didn't sell all their tickets 'cos they know they have a pish team and they'd get gubbed! :D

    There wasn't an empty seat or a quiet person in the Hearts half!

    saved a pen of his

    Be nice if they won it, but only because Hearts are diving cheating bastards (and also because it'd piss off Shiny :D)

    I think it'd be a lot more of a fairytale if a team like Inverness won the cup, because they've never been massively bankrolled and just worked their way up the leagues without much fanfare and I'd imagine their wage bill is about half that of Gretna's.

    I think they'll go up the leagues and end up like Livingston, sadly.

    And here's a thought - next years UEFA cup representatives could be Gretna and Rangers :chin:
