left winger 15,008 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 It would be the second best cup triumph in our history. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCPRANGERS1 2,997 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 For me it would rank very highly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingWilBEARy 4,319 Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 It actually does work like that, over a courseUnless you mean cup games in one off games? In which I agree but it also defeats your point as you could argue that if we won it our achievement was luck considering the draw/s rather than to do with being an outstanding romantic forceI meant to say cup football. We are the plucky underdogs, massive wage bill or no massive wage bill. We were 12/1 to win it on Thursday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonMuffin 2,551 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Considering everything we've been through the last couple of years, very highly. And very romantic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehost 11,061 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 So the minimum expected level is a treble?Now the tims are out, yes. Whilst they were in I would have settled for the league, ramsden cup and the sc final. Now it's win all three. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cameron1873 526 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 If we were to win this I think it would be up there. Was it 2 first team players we had 18 months that turned up for pre season team. Even with a high wage bill this team is basically free transfers and youngsters. I would love nothing more to see ally and the team pull it off as I don't class ourselves as favourites.However, I do expect us to win it not because of the wage bill but because its is expected at our club Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Shame to see folk arguing over this as I see both points of view.With the money we're spending on wages and the players we have - a Scottish Cup run, maybe even final appearance, is to be expected.However taking into account everything that's happened to us it would be an emotional occasion winning it where we are and basically still a mess off the park.We should be up there challenging for cups with our squad but it wont take away how sweet it would feel to do it so soon after admin and demotion.

MrMccoist 204 Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 We won Barcelona 1972 only a short time after the Ibrox Disaster (lest we forget) and for me that will always be our greatest achievement To win the Scottish Cup so soon after Whytes crap would be pretty romantic, Theres a proverb about chickens counting before hatched, so not gonna say anymore.

obiwan72 28 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 For me it could be ( if we do it) the 5th best trophy of my lifetime1 parkdump 992 helicopter sunday3 (although we didn't win it) Manchester 084 50th title 035 Scottish cup 14?

ryanross123 0 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Ok go through the Aberdeen starting 11 player for player.....who would you swap? I can't think of one player who would improve our best 11 (subjective)....To be honest I think it's closer to the opposite. None of our best eleven would improves theirs, apart from maybe Wallace. On our day though I feel we are good enough to take anyone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
