Andy H Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Just thinking of the parallels between 1991 and 2011 1 player scored in every round (Kirk), now Sutton We had a capped NI player playing for us (O'Neill) now Craggs The third goal in the semi was a screamer (O'Neill) now Sutton We beat the holders (Aberdeen) now Dundee Utd I had a beard then, I grew it back just before Christmas.... Celtic were paranoid, no change there then... Must be others... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretzel Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 In the 1952 final when we won the cup we pumped Dundee 4-0, I know that has nothing to do with the 1991 final but just thought i'd point that out lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East_Stand_Al Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 On a slight tangent the official founding date for the club is given as 18th May 1886, Cup Final is 21st May which would be the equivalant Saturday thus marking our 125th anniversary , tenous at best I know but my brain is still a bit fuzzy. memo to self Having a few beers at 9am in the Cooper Suite did seem like a good idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
