Odds on Madden sending off a Celtic player

539

Call me a cynic, but after recent “soft” red cards shown against Motherwell and Hamilton players facing Celtic, I sense a bit of “even themselves out” in store for us at Hampden on Sunday.  Memories of Hampden semi-finals against Inverness and Ross County, where we were denied progress and (probably) a trophy due to red cards feature heavily in the memory.

The best chance Newco have to stop Celtic and reach their second Scottish Cup final would be to fall poleaxed on the ground after each and every challenge from a Celtic player.  Bobby Madden may feel obliged to show that referees are not scared to red card Scotland’s top players.

Celtic being reduced to 10 men didn’t do Newco any good at Ibrox last month, but they would bite your hand off for a second crack at those numbers.

We need to play smart, especially Scott Brown, who I expect will be targeted.  Odds on Madden sending off a Celtic player will be short.

  1. Might have been a more interesting game if the second goal City scored had been allowed

    My parents brought me up to hate nobody. Their words were, “If you cannot respect people of a different faith to you, How can you expect them to respect yours?”

     

    I taught my 4 children that same philosophy

    Well done Liverpool and especially Roma.

     

    Surprised nobody has been talking about Bayern. Fancied them to win it after Heynckes returned.

     

    Would like to see Liverpool v Real in the semis.

    Wee James hisnae aged well. My son Ryan is a Smiddy regular. You are mistaken about Tosh’s age. He was one of the oldest in my year. He left school at Christmas in 4th year to sign for Dundee. Good lad would get us comps for Dundee vCeltic games at Dens.

     

    Bud Flanagan became a Dundee fan then.?

    Roma a team close to heart, put all my student grant on them to win the semi after 2-0 down in 84.

    Switched over now to see if Roma get the 1 more goal that they need…

     

     

    *As soon as Liverpool equalised I turned it over tae the Roma game, glad I did, never saw ‘pools 2nd goal. The last 3 City games have shown them tae be a 45 minute side, 2nd half at anfield and both 1st halfs at home. Interesting game coming up against Spurs Saturday night.

     

     

    Lets hope we don’t City it the next 2 games.

    Home for the first three weeks in June. A wee Ayrshire Tims night in The Market might be a plan.

    Gordybhoy, there is a bit about the Takeover Panel court case with King today on etims twitter

  22. Bada,

     

     

    excellent. and what a reflection on Scotland.

     

     

     

    We should all place a bet on Celtic having players sent off in this game. I think it would have an effect, Money talks after all…
