I heard they were having trouble mixing the exact shade of petrol blue dye required to match the silver epaulettes.

Getting your predictions in early?

I'm disappointed. After adding his name to my team sheet, I just double checked and someone has crossed it out.

I'd be very surprised if any 'Well fan that wants a ticket is unable to get their hands on one.

I'd like to see Tommy Sheridan at centre half, organizing his own defence.

As a fellow member of that elite group, I may not make it over for the final, so I donate my ticket rights to your good self.

Underside of the bar at that. Glad to see the back of those square goals.

Very quick scan, but didn't see Ally Mauchlen on there. EDIT: No Soapy Souter or Keith McRae either.

Regardless of whether Celtic need to win or not, I'd be surprised to see McCall field a team any stronger (and possibly weaker) than the one he played against Hearts prior to our semi-final.

They don't have ownership, but it's disingenuous at best to pretend that they don't have a strong association with them based on their politcal and religous leanings. I'm in the camp that finds them cringe worthy and pointless. I don't see the need to wave any national flags at a domestic competition (even the Saltires). However, I'm certainly not pro-censorship, so I wouldn't want to prevent anyone from displaying whatever they like.

I liked the one line summary someone posted on the St. Johnstone forum yesterday: "Pros: we were all over them for the first 3 minutes"

Not the best quality, but this one has been rock solid for me: http://www.dart1801.blogspot.com/

Ask MJC.

http://www.dart1801.blogspot.com/ is looking good for me this morning.

7:45am kick-off, so big mug of coffee for me and something stronger mid-morning if we win.

Read an article about McRae on TimesOnline. It was a "Whatever Happened To....?" write up on a Man City Cup squad. It pretty much said the same thing (except for the 'weird' part). Apparently he lost touch with City after he moved on and is "believed to be living somewhere in the US" but nobody has any real idea of his whereabouts.

Ally Maxwell is over here coaching the SC Del Sol Soccer Club youth team apparently.

If one of them is from that famous letter writer, Jim Gannon, I reckon it doesn't count.

I'm sure all the ex-pats will be online too, so if there are any problems with internet streams, just keep an eye on the threads and there will be plenty of suggestions on which ones are working best.

As bad as that might be, imagine losing to Aberdeen in the final

Do they not teach journalists how to fact check any more? It used to be a required part of the job. A quick call to each of the teams would have confirmed the actual figures.

First we make the final. Then we think about coming over No idea if I would be able to make it this time around. Was lucky enough to be at the '91 final and unlucky enough to be at the CIS final so while I'd obviously love to be at Hampden again this season, I would be okay with watching on the internet. The CIS final was the worst for many reasons. I had booked a week's holiday off work to come back for the game. A few days beforehand, my boss asked me if I could travel to Hong Kong for a month to work on a project there. I told him that unfortunately I had vacation and couldn't reschedule due to 'family commitments'. The boss said that if I postponed my time off, not only would I get my trip to Hong Kong, but he would pay for me to fly business class on my rescheduled trip. 10 minutes after kickoff I was in mode (BTW - just remembered that it was our most recent signing that opened the scoring that day)

No Setanta over here. When Sky and ESPN picked up the pieces from their liquidation, the Setanta channel became Fox Soccer Plus. @texanwellfan - if you make sure you select your correct timezone from the dropdown menu, you'll see the correct time for the broadcast in you area,

Aye, internet only for these games. For whatever reason, the SPL/SFA stopped selling games to the US a number of years ago - although it was only ever OF games that were shown. There will be plenty of internet channels though with atdhenet.tv and myp2p.eu usually a good place to start.

+1 from me. I didn't have high hopes for Broon this season and was predicting 7th place. When McCall took over such a thin squad, I would have been satisfied with 7th before he had his chance to rebuild over the summer.
