I'am getting nervous for the Old Firm game this weekend. Dont think Celtic can beat Rangers to be honest.

I think it will be 3-0 Rangers. Hope I'm wrong.

For once i REALLY don't know what's going to happen, as in...i reaaaally can't predict a score.

Though i hope Fleck gets to shine in this game and i hope Boyd gets a bit more luck in this one.

Celtic vs Rangers, Motherwell vs Hamilton, plus Saints vs Falkirk and Hearts vs Aberdeen aren't the friendliest of games, no love lost there!

Saints cup match has been moved to Thursday for TV rights. We then play on the Saturday away to Hearts. We tried getting the game moved to the Sunday, but Hearts have decided to only think about themselves and make us suffer.

I might miss the Cup replay...I have TWO prelims o the Friday

Might go to Hearts though, prelims will be over and Tynecastle is just amazing

St Mirren 1-0 Motherwell

Saints make their 4th Scottish Cup quarter final in 5 years as Billy Mehmet's 85th minute strike wins the match. Billy's 10th goal of the season, and Saints first win at the new stadium.

And I had to miss it! Two prelims tomorrow, so had to stay in and study even worse, I missed the last win at Love Street as well cause I was in Belgium

Anyway, we'll be facing our 4th quarters defeat in 5 years as we have no chance against 14 man Celtic, who have happily conned the refs into giving them the win in our past 3 meetings.

Hearts 1-1 St Mirren

Great point at the best away ground in the SPL.

Looking at the facts - playing on Thursday, away to a team better than us, having a biased ref who nearly cost us the game, and getting a last minute equalizer - it was amazing.

Hearts went up after 78 mins. Andy Dorman scored in the 90th minute.

Referee - awful. Booked Hugh Murray for accidentally blocking a Hearts player, then booked Hamilton and Cuthbert before the free kick was taken. Then Dorman had a run and he was deliberately blocked - not even a FK. Followed by Dorman holding a player and being booked, whereas Hearts Robbie Neilson spent the whole game holding Mehmet, barely ever getting FKs for it. He conned us big time.

Felt we should have had a penalty after the goal, Wyness was brought down but nothing given. Still, a fantastic result for us looking at the things in Hearts favour - sweetest draw ever. Haven't celebrated a goal so much since our win over Rangers last October. Sublime.

Agreed there, it's been all thumbs up since they have moved to their new ground.


Rangers hitting the top of the league for the first time in 4 months really puts an exclaimation mark on the end of this sentence!

Celtic playing Motherwell today, i can't see Motherwell putting up a fight after their loss on Thursday, i reckon the team will be a bit downhearted, but at the same time willing to put a spin on the outcome of the season yet again.

Something tells me Motherwell are going to cost Rangers the title again.

Looks like the ref has cheated St Mirren yet again. Four times in a row vs Celtic.

I really do hate Celtic.

So would i if they hammered me 7-0...

We'll pump them next week

In the cup?

Yes, please do, you'll have 11 men then.
But mentally, coming back to the same team that beat you 7-0, getting away with anything will be very difficult.

The past three games vs them before Saturday, we should have got something in each of them.

Should have drawn 0-0 at Love Street, but Naka fell over and Eddie Smith happily gave the free kick. We were close for 60 minutes the next game, just for Smith to give a penalty and red card, which we lost 1-0. 3rd time out, we would have had a great chance had Boruc been deservedly red carded, but apparently flykicking players is legal now. And on Saturday, it WOULD NOT have been 7-0 had Ross rightfully stayed on the park.

If it wasn't for these incompetent buffoons, we would not have lost all of our last four encounters. I'd be prepared to bet, next week sees another one of these idiots help them to the win.

St Mirren made up for Saturday with a 1-1 draw with Aberdeen. Dons equalized in the last minute

And Rangers 0-1 Inverness CT

SuperCaleyGoBallistic, RangersAreAtrocious...

Couldn't resist

Maybe Celtic will give John Barnes another whirl when wee Gordon leaves, until then.......

St Mirren 1-0 Celtic - Scottish Cup Quarter Finals

Just brilliant! Totally makes up for last week. We were superb, and we thoroughly deserved the win.

Billy Mehmet penalty. I think it should have been a red card for their defender, but you can't have everything. After that, it mainly consisted of referee favouring Celtic, giving free kicks against Mehmet for nothing and allowing their dives to be free kicks. Thankfully we held on, we've defeated the biggest cheats in Scotland - and we ARE GOING TO HAMPDEN!!!!!

Quality!!!

I think the saints deserve it after beating Celtic!

EDIT: just saw that run that lead to the penalty, i agree with a red card there, was nowhere near getting the ball, i feel it was purely on ref's position.

Mehmet, what a run!
(He's the top goalscorer on my FIFA league by the way!!!)

That run was the type of run we've expected of Craig Dargo for over one and a half seasons, and he's finally showing what he can do. Since November, he's steadily became the player we expected of him when he joined two seasons ago, and his performance yesterday showed it. A superb run for the penalty, left the two defenders stranded before he was brought down.

Also much congrats to Mehmet, who is one of our most composed players, simple with the penalty. Full team was superb

How could CELTIC lose against St Mirren??

Because the referee finally didn't help Celtic beat them?

In truth, Saints were superb yesterday and deserved the win.

How gutting is this? We beat one half of the Old Firm, just to get the other half for the semi final?

I do feel for the saints, least they get to play at hampden either way.

It's the first time they have got to the semi's since....1987??

Your team vs my team yoda

Wish saints luck next month at hampden.
