| 1. Author: LiviPar Date: Mon 20th Apr 2026. 23:51 I have been supporting dunfermline for around 32 years now. This will be my 4th cup final and every final has been Celtic. I mean come on tae f***. Lol But this will be the 3rd final out of the 4 that it will be, you could say, a club legends last game for Celtic. Larssons in 2004, Lennons 2007 and now MartinO`Neils last game to manage. And funny enough its against Lennon who is now our manager. Crazy really. Will it be 4th lucky? Or will the Celtic Legend get his perfect send off? All I know is, i`m already bricking it.

| 2. Author: PeachtreePar Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 07:32 Five of our six Scottish Cup Finals have been against Celtic. Let`s go for the Mo Hutton final, good way to send an amazing servant to the club into a happy retirement Reply |
| 3. Author: DBP Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 07:38 Yeah I was at the 04 and 07 finals, so for me I’m hoping it’s third time lucky Reply |

| 5. Author: Bandy Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 09:55 I recall the `07 final was the `Jinky` final. Terrible game - Burchill missed a great chance early doors, Adam Hamill did Lennon with a great bit of skill that ended up costing Pressley a booking, and John-Joel Perrier Doumbe scored a fluky winner - the ONLY goal he ever scored in his career.

| 7. Author: SusieQ Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 10:13 The good thing about this one is that the media will concentrate on Lenny v O`Neil so that will hopefully keep any pressure off our players - not that they should feel any anyway 🤔 COME ON YE PARS! Reply |
| 8. Author: parsmad68 Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 10:18 The benefit we have is Celtic know nothing of our team and will need to do lots of homework before the final, but they will have limited time to do this as our squad will not likely be the same until the first play off (assuming we get there). No 4 games a season to get used to our players. Will their eyes be on the World Cup? Assuming they have any players going? It really is only a matter of a couple of weeks after the Cup Final and players going will be in the USA. Reply |
| 9. Author: veteraneastender Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 10:18 I have been at all 5 finals v Celtic - can`t be too many of us auld farts still on active service !!! `65 was the real heartbreaker. Mind you the revenge of January 1968 is still sweet in the memory. Reply |
| 10. Author: LochgellyAlbert Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 11:00 At first final 1961, couldn`t get to replay (school night) 65 game was a heartbreaker, the start of Celtic`s supremacy ! 68 on bus from Civil Service Club arranged by the late Gerry Page, a great day out followed by the procession down the High Street. More recent finals have seen me there with my sons, hopefully this final will be with grandkids, though 2 of my granddaughters play for Raith ladies!😡 Reply |

| 12. Author: Berry Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 13:15 Just looking forward to the day out, have no expectation that Pars will win this one, as long as we give it a good go, sure we’ll have the majority of other teams in our corner come the game! Reply |
| 13. Author: veteraneastender Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 13:25 "Burchill, missed chance, aye right. Easier to score when he got the ball." No, it wasn`t easy - a half chance only. Reply |
| 14. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Tue 21st Apr 2026. 19:23 I have a terrible record of attending Cup finals - Ive been to 6 and been in the losing end every time……. Surely the curse has to end at some point?! Reply |
