Scottish cup draw

[shugg1e1919]

Are any other Falkirk players cup tied other than Baird and Kerr? Muirhead?

I believe Aaron Muirhead is currently injured and may not be available to play in the cup tie.

Nithvalley do you make a habit of being difficult or does it just come naturally?

Don't be so sore on the old chap Jardi - he has Scottish Cup fever a rare condition brought on by the possibility of heading for Hampden.

My wifie has even rose from her winter dourness demanding I take her to Hampden if we reach there ...

Falkirk have more reason to fear us than vice versa. We have drawn twice at their place and beaten them at Palmerston. We have scored four against them and they have scored two against us, one a penalty and one a deflected free kick. So no goals in open play then. They have improved with the arrival of Baird and Kerr but as they are both cup tied, Falkirk should be a bit more vulnerable. All in all, we have every chance of reaching Hampden again. As someone else suggests we could do with a noisy and intimidating home crowd.

Couldn't really have got a much better draw apart from Berwick or Spartans ( with respect to both ).

As commented on on Sportscene on Saturday night Palmerston has the unique old ground atmosphere and away to Falkirk ( where there will never be an atmosphere ) wouldn't.

Great new that Kerr and Baird are cup tied as they have played well since joining and you would imagine the pair of them will be kept in the team as they push us for the playoffs. This will unsettle their team on the day.

Can't wait - just hope we can get a big crowd for that old ground atmosphere.

Can't see anyone at Palmerston being complacent.

Can't wait.

Confirming how evenly matched this tie is ... both priced at 33/1 to win the cup.

Hopefully with this being at Palmerston, Kerr & Baird cup tied and us getting Burns, McKenna, Paton & Mitchell back this may tip things in our favour.

A lot could depend on how full and noisy Palmerston will be. Maybe the crowd can influence things.

Need the Young Team in full voice.

Awkh, Dariusz, half the young team are away that weekend to Belgium on a school trip [!]128514;

If, at the start of the season, you'd offered me Falkirk at home for a place in the semi-final of the Scottish Cup I'd have bitten your hand off (figuratively, of course). What more is there to say?
