| 1. Author: Ronaldo Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 16:07 I can understand a few heads going down after Friday/Saturday, but there are surely some grounds for optimism this weekend. It`s rare chance to see us in a Scottish Cup final (I just missed out on `68) and I`m really looking forward to it. So could I start the ball rolling with ... we`ve yet to concede in 300 minutes against Premiership opposition this season. Any other reasons we should travel in hope?

| 12. Author: onandupthepars Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 19:49 Ref: wee eck Mon 18 May 18:15 Ox is set to return to the squad so he`ll play if fit. -------------------------- This and the fact that our defence has been good in the cup games so far are the only grounds for optimism posted so far. Another is - Jerry, Kieran, Charlie, Nuru and Chris Kane will all play if fit. We`ve got a decent looking first eleven - not suffered any more disastrous injuries since Zak and Olly were crocked. Our forwards have received some harsh lessons lately in the need to take chances, which should help to sharpen their wits when they`re next faced with a sight of goal. It` s the last game of the season, so our players can go flat out knowing they can relax on the physio`s couch with big cigars afterwards! Post Edited (Mon 18 May 19:59) Reply |
