I like the noises coming out of Ross County at the moment. Plucky optimism accompanied by comments about our Scottish Cup semi-final in 2010, when they fully deserved their 2-0 win. They are the proverbial team with nothing to lose, and make no mistake, they’ll fancy it.
They scored 2 against Motherwell, Aberdeen (in a defeat), Dunfermline and St Johnstone, 3 against Accies and Kilmarnock, and 5 against Dundee since last month. Hampden’s open spaces will see Celtic’s defence stretched wide.
After a disappointing summer and autumn we have a bit of form and focus but that goes on the line on Sunday. It’s as big a game as we’ll have for the rest of the season, bigger than Wednesday’s visit to Pittodrie.
I’m reassured by thoughts of Leigh Griffiths, and others, including Kris Commons, who enjoys trips to Hampden more than any player we’ve known, but this is a day when we’ll need to win a lot of individual battles. It’s not a game I’d bet on.

Are you trying to put the wind up us?
We will beat County comfortably.
They needed two games to get past Dunfermline in the last round.
Their recent league form can only be described as indifferent winning 3 and losing 3 in their last 6 games. In doing so they conceded 11 goals while scoring only 12.
Hardly the best of form to take to Hampden for a semi final against a side in rampant form.
Over the same number of league games we have a 4-2-1 record scoring 19 and conceding only 7 goals in the process.
The numbers do not lie and should give us confidence, not provide a source of fear.

I hope our team is getting stronger, Sunday will be a good Barometer.
We have had it too easy going into this game, that worries me, especially given our previous.
We need Winners oot there, very hungry players is a must in that respect.

The reference to LIQUIDATION came from this para
One of the main criticisms of the SPL was the dominance of the two Old Firm clubs, Celtic and Rangers. No team outside the Old Firm has won the Scottish league championship since 1985. Until Rangers were ejected from the SPL due to their liquidation, there was only one SPL season (2005–06) where both clubs failed to occupy first and second positions, with Hearts finishing second behind Celtic.[9] Whilst other European leagues were dominated by a few clubs in the 2000s, the Old Firm dominance in Scotland dated back to the beginning of Scottish league football, with a few exceptional periods. The average home attendances of both clubs is significantly higher than the other Scottish clubs, which resulted in the Old Firm having far greater revenues and therefore more money to spend on players. Both clubs also received significant revenues from participation in the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League.

We are brimming with confidence
Playing fast open football
We have competition for places
Players are gaining form and understanding with each other
The wide open spaces of Hampden will suit our style more than County’s.
Only a bent performance from another “incompetent” ref making an “honest” mistake can deprive us of a plac in the final.
Hands up if you’ve seen that previously.
Manos arriba.

I just want to see the Strengthened will in our Team.

Good morning friends and a Big Happy Friday from an extremely wet and stormy East Kilbride. Apologies for interrupting PetecQuickNews. ;-)
Looks like the stormy weather may play a part in Sundays cup semi final
Watching Sky Sports this morning
An outrageous report on Sevco
What a wonderful community club
The sickening report ended in a quote from a bespectacled pencil neck
He wanted Sevco to return to old values which were associated with RFC
Doing things the right way….treating people the way you wanted to be treated yourself …integrity…equality
Maybe if you weren’t a catholic …the taxman…a creditor
Quite incredible
