Ya Bezzer! Posted November 2 Report Share Posted November 2 Rangers will always be favourites in these ties but this is a great opportunity to beat them in a semi final. Clement is under huge pressure and failure will see Rangers implode. Missing O'Donnell and McGinn with their experience is a bit of a blow though. Fingers crossed though, it would be a nice boost personally since I have a pretty shitty week coming up! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJC Posted November 2 Report Share Posted November 2 Our last five games against Rangers at Hampden have been tight affairs with the obvious exception of the 2005 LCF. Unlike when we play Celtic there we always seem to manage to at the very least score against Rangers at Hampden so there are reasons for optimism. 02/03 SCSF L3-4 04/05 LCF L1-5 10/11 LCSF L1-2 17/18 LCSF W2-0 24/25 Scot Prem L1-2 The Scottish Cup Semi in 2003 still grates at me as we had them that day and Clarkson missed that sitter when we were 2-1 up and we end up losing.

Big Stall Posted November 2 Report Share Posted November 2 At the risk of sounding like MJC, im worried about the optimism & stars aligning. Rangers are in dissaray, this is a big chance to beat them when it matters....... could end up getting humped 5-0 Buts lets forget that. 3-1 to the good guys & we can twist & shout all week long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted November 2 Report Share Posted November 2 Aye I’d feel more comfortable if there was the usual smugness and expectancy coming from Rangers. Wins over them are few and far between but for as long as I can remember where ever we’ve beaten them it’s been when it’s been unexpected. When we beat them back in March they were on a good winning run and thought they were shoe-ins for the league. Then there was the playoffs where they were favourites and even when we beat them in the 2017 Semi the sponsors and the tv companies built the two semis up as preceding an Old Firm final with their two badges blown up in the foreground and ours and Hibs badges small and in the background like an afterthought. The fact that they are getting a hounding by the media and their fans and there is almost a belief that we will beat them from certain quarters doesn’t sit well with me. Im looking forward to tomorrow but can’t help but think it’s going to be a sickener for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joewarkfanclub Posted November 2 Report Share Posted November 2 There are so many variables tomorrow there isnt really any point trying to predict what is going to happen. Needless to say we will have to play close to our best and hope Rangers have an off day to get a result. Lets just get to Hampden tomorrow and enjoy the occasion. Its a no lose situation for us as we arent a team that is expected to get to cup finals on a regular basis, just getting to a semi final is a big deal. Enjoy Lennon Miller leading the team out. Enjoy being part of a big Motherwell support. Enjoy the fact that we have a chance of doing something really special, even if it doesnt pan out that way. And maybe, just maybe, this underdog will have its day! Up The 'Well! 🧡❤️🧡 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking a huge support tomorrow so hopefully Kettlewell gets the line up and formation spot on and the lads play to their full potential 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, they aren't likely to hump us on current form, so I expect it to be close - and when it's close, you always have a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted November 2 Report Share Posted November 2 The Celtic v Aberdeen game is currently delayed due to “poor visibility” caused by PYRO smoke. Let’s hope the ‘Well Bois’ aren’t watching on in awe and taking notes ahead of tomorrow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’d need to be able to get near Celtics players before they can start “taking bodies”. This is ominous for us as before we even kick a ball tomorrow it’s pretty clear that if we do win then we’re setting ourselves up for a pasting in the final. But that’s just the way Scottish football is now, no one can get anywhere near Celtic. They’re just on a different level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as far as our chances of actually winning the trophy go….like I said it’s ominous because we’re not going to beat Celtic in a final.
