But no, not the cup. Hearts were not better then us, was pretty even until they went down to 10, and Devlin should have been off long before he did. I'd have fancied our chances at 11 v 11.
"Celtic were off it". So were we in that case, I saw us play much better than that last season. But even so, the best players on the park were wearing red that day.
