I understand the Scottish nationalist agenda many of you clearly follow so I know what's behind your wilful ignorance on the matter but if you could just try and park (to run with the laboured car metaphor) the insular, xenophobic thinking for even a moment you'd realise that I'm right. 

Your determination to derail every thread by saying the same thing over and over again, and then insulting anyone who disagrees with your opinion, got boring a long time ago.

I'd absolutely refuse to entertain the likes of McGlynn or Robinson.

Not sure if you're from here but mid table or not Aberdeen are still a massive club and that demands a certain class of manager.

Central belt teuchters and irish minks need not apply.

We don't want learners or apprentices. We want the real deal. So it simply has to be a European.

No-one in Scotland is big enough for the job.

Have a word with yourself min.

You cry fictional xenophobia when I've not actually said I would prefer a Scottish manager (FYI Scotland is still a European country geographically even if out of the EU BTW). Then you are actually xenophobic by saying the manager must come from only European countries thus ruling out any nationalities from north and south America, Asia, Africa and Oceania.  

 

Mate, you're all over the fucking place.  Go find a mirror and have a wee word with yourself would be my advice.

I seem to have touched a nerve.

Bless.

Couldn't give a flying fuck where our next manager comes from.

As far as I'm concerned he could be the bastard child of Atilla The Hun and Elizabeth Bathory as long as he is the right appointment and makes us a more entertaining team and harder to beat.

It's not really much to ask, is it ?

First of semi finals on today. Dunfermline v Falkirk on now. 0-0 after 25 minutes.

Has there ever been a poorer Scottish Cup semi-final line up?

1967-68
Dunfermline v St Johnstone

Hearts v Morton

[RicoS321]

Pars Vs Saints it is then

[The.Moog]

Terrible game. Two poor teams.

In a season of constant absolute clusterfucks, you have to say us blowing pretty much a free pass to the final after beating Motherwell is right up there…

What's to say we wouldn't have blown it today against Falkirk?

Not that I was chuffed when our hold on the trophy was snatched away, we could do without the distraction of the cup. Premiership survival is more important.

[The.Moog]

True, but what’s to say we would have.

That draw was about as good as it gets. All the way to the final with absolutely none of the other 4 traditional “big clubs” anywhere to be seen..

[BigAl]

Haven't seen any of the game so can't comment on the quality of football on display.

What I would say however is that it is difficult to say that Dunfermline don't deserve their place in the final given the fact that in the last three rounds they have knocked out three higher league clubs without conceding a single goal.

I watched the BBC coverage this afternoon so missed the news that Michael Stewart was banned from Hampden for his co-commentary duties on Premier Sports. Premier decided to sneak him into the car park to broadcast from one of their trucks but he has since been banned from the car park too!

Got to love Scottish Fitba! 

[The.Moog]

Strange one this. Not like the SFA to be prickly, officious, small minded and petty at all is it…

[Jute]

Second semi final is today at 2pm. Cannot see Martin O’Neil lead Celtic not putting this away. Hope I am wrong. 

[swaddon]

Celtic 1-0 up. The Saints have had to put on a 17 year old substitute goalkeeper.

Imagine making your debut at Hampden in a Scottish Cup semi against Celtic. Good luck to the lad.

it could be worse.

You could be contesting a final, when your goalie has to go off injured, after an assault and you don't even have a sub goalie to replace him with. 

[Radiored]

Yass .... St Mirren equalise in added time.

[TheDonbytheDee]

Fair play to St Mirren, they have given Celtic a game.

Deserved to level.

[BigAl]

Anyone actually think our lot could have come back like that
