Taken me till now to get over how fucking gutted I am at the result, and to a certain extent, the performance. Would certainly be the first to say that Ketts got the subs totally wrong. I think a lot of people would have liked to see us go toe to toe with them early, like we did against Celtic. First though, it has to be acknowledged that they simply have better players than us. You could probably take the income of their two top earners and float our entire club on it. FFS they lost the equivalent of more than three years of our turnover last year, and thats taking into account ther fact that their income is huge compared to ours. They just have the money (temporarily maybe 🙂 ) to have better players than us. Add to that the expanse of the pitch at Hampden and teams who try to match the Glasgow Arse Cheeks can easily come unstuck pretty quick. This is exactly the same reason that Rangers get pumped every time they play Celtic these days, cause they've got the pace and ability to tear them apart on a big pitch.
I'm not saying the manager got it right, far from it, but a right into them, press high approach could have seen us turn into Aberdeen in their semi, so I can understand the approach to a certain extent. However, the subs were just bizarre.
It's basically just gutting, especially after getting our noses ahead with the first decent attack we had.
