David Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 I hope i'm not tempting fate here, but apparently with Porto winning the Europa league this season the winners of the Scottish cup will only have to play one qualifying round. Anyone heard anything similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finlay Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Straight in at the 'Odense round' ye say? Magic. Surely as Cup Winners we would be seeded this time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickoza Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Yep, confirmation in the Scotsman today: http://sport.scotsma...ltic.6771293.jp Considering how much our winning the cup would f*ck up both of their starts to the season is all the more incentive to win now!

Haggischomper Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Got a sneaky feeling Mo Ross will be at right back and Saunders, therefore, will be on the bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnstone Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Shaun Maloney out of the final and Antony Stokes has been disciplined by the club for an internal matter. Its all falling apart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary_411 Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Just pumped some Celtic fanny at fifa on the xbox. Had to endure him singing just can't get enough until I scored the first. Then the racist abuse of Humphrey (or a pixelated version of him) started before I was called a dirty smelly h*n! 3-0 full time, the omens are all there.

Haggischomper Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Shaun Maloney out of the final BASTARD!!!! I was about to start a sweepstakes thread for when he would win Celtic a pen. Felt confident with choosing 68 minutes, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Glad Maloney is out, always a dangers against us. Got a bad feeling about Forrest doing some damage, think he has scored against us a couple of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Glad Maloney is out, always a dangers against us. Got a bad feeling about Forrest doing some damage, think he has scored against us a couple of times. James Forrest is a half decent player, nothing more. He has potential but he's not any likelier to do damage than the likes of Jamie Murphy and Chris Humphrey. His Scotland squad call-up shouldn't mask that fact. Famous last words of course.

Finlay Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 This must be what it's like the night before your only daughter's wedding.

coylealan Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 You always like to be optimistic before such a big game, the reality is, as the players should know, when the whistle goes, your emotions, feelings, thoughts and dreams can go out of the window. The truth is you can't go out and imagine what it would be like to win the game, you have to go out and play to win the game, for 90 minutes, extra time and penalties, because when it's all been said and done, if the players haven't given everything they have in a positive spirit, we probably won't win. To beat the OF, especially in a game like this, you need 110% minimum, 120% as a guideline to go with. It also requires mental discipline. If games were talked about, we might have won by now. It's great to imagine a win, it's harder to win. I don't know if I would play Maurice Ross after the Rangers game but I'm sure whoever plays tomorrow will show their steel and determination. 1-0 or 2-1 for me, maybe after AET, Sutton or Jeffers for first goal. Probably need a swift drink before I take my seat in the singing section. Wherever you are supporting Motherwell, the best to you and to the players. Just imagine if we won this... (x it by 1000) and punch the air... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellfan1984 Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Straight in at the 'Odense round' ye say? Magic. Surely as Cup Winners we would be seeded this time? Doubtful. It would take some very big teams to be knocked out in the 3rd Round, coupled with all big teams that enter early in the Champions League to be in the Group Stages or knocked out in Round 2. If Celtic make it, they are likely to be seeded though (if we win the Cup). Our Co-Eff is in the 7.xxx, I think you need at least a 13.xxx to look for a seeded place. This season, BATE were the lowest ranked seeded team in the Europa League Play-off and they had a Co-eff of 13.308. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Keep them quiet for the first 30 minutes and we've done brilliantly. Sneak a goal, their fans get on their back, and I think we'll go on to lift the cup. My stomach is in knots tonight though. Bring it home, Motherwell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
