pete 2,499 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Andrew Dickson has seemingly tweeted that Forrester is out of the final. Without him Ball,King, MOH will be difficult but we beat Hibs 6-2 without them at the beginning of the season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooponthewing 1,139 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Not sure if he would have played anyway tbh as wouldn't have been match fit, I fancy the same team that played bheasts but minus Deano and plus Waggy. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rousseau 10,019 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 We're doomed. I think Pete's got the line-up spot on. The real positive is having Waghorn back. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster. 4,974 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 With a return to the heady and sometimes bizarre days of abundant transfer speculation I'd almost forgot about the SC Final !!! McKay, Waghorn and Miller is an excellent front three to start and IMO we'd only miss Forrester as a decent option from the bench. That said, you could argue that against Dundee our football was better, quicker and more incisive with HF in and MW sat in the stand. Midfield is where Hibs can be fairly strong and this is where they'll be looking to dominate. We'll miss Ball but we've had three weeks to work on how the midfield will shape up. Tend to think that Hibs will be up for it and physical tiredness won't come into it. In 4 of the 5 matches against Hibs, they have scored the first goal early into the game Stanton, 14mins Cummings 11 Cummings 23 Cummings 5 Twice we came back to win the game 2-6 and 2-4. If Hibs are going to tire it'll be mentally and we don't want to let them get ahead this time. Without Ball it'll be difficult to keep it tight so you'd expect another game with at least three goals in it, probably more. I think it will be a cracker of a football match and it's there for who takes their chances and get it right on the day. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said the same prior to the semi-final but we did 'ok' ! Ironically I think Hibs will ask more questions of us than Celtic did. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexscottislegend 2,222 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 They will be so demoralised after failing to win promotion. I think we will win more easily than is being suggested. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
