shull Posted January 24, 2021 Author Report Posted January 24, 2021 Went to my first Semi Final in 1971. Not missed one since. Shame the fans can't get in today. Quote

Also I got 20/1 with William Hill for McCarthy to score anytime which I thought wasn’t too shabby. So my prediction 3-1 Saints with McCarthy sealing it (of course). COYS!! You get Premier Sports sorted? Quote

faraway saint Posted January 24, 2021 Report Posted January 24, 2021 The best I can do to create an atmosphere is to arrange 5 separate households all to Zoom while we watch the game. Two here in Arbroath, one in Perth and two in Paisley. Hope the authorities don't rumble us. Quote

RichardBuddie Posted January 24, 2021 Report Posted January 24, 2021 A nice day, comparatively speaking. Clear and sunny, although cauld. The 4pm kick off is a bit of a weird one (appreciate it’s the tv slot), good point about being cold, it would have been absolutely Baltic today in the stands!! Quote

Aye, by that time any slight temperature increase would have been long gone. Quote

I always think of Hampden as being quite a warm ground. Been to umpteen Scotland and Saints games there and can’t say I ever remember being cold. Murrayfield on the other hand. Brrrrrr.

The sun will have about gone by kick off, not sure about Glasgow but it's barely to get above freezing here today. Never mind, I'll be toasty. 👍 Quote

Not a big effort but it certainly entertained my daughters for all of 2 mins. 7:30am my 3yr old daughter wakes me ‘daddy - it’s football day’. It’s really great to have a day like this in the current climate. Quote
turrabuddie Posted January 24, 2021 Report Posted January 24, 2021 BBC pre match reportNightmare for him, and us. I think he’d have been a good option from the bench today. And an unknown quantity.Let’s hope he’s back soon. Quote

That may be due to alcohol intake.I remember the 14th April 1984.The freezing wind blowing through the opening at the rear of Section J Quote
Bud the Baker Posted January 24, 2021 Report Posted January 24, 2021 The time for common sense and reasoned analysis has passed, it's time to get your Saints head on and send positive vibes to our guys... COYS! Quote

Ronnie Posted January 24, 2021 Report Posted January 24, 2021 Eventually - waited 30 minutes on the phone yesterday to virgin with no joy, so did it manually, no discount I’m afraid but it’s in, watching Italian football now!!I luckily (after alot of moaning in my part) paid £9.99 per month for 6 months of Premier Sports in October so my Celtic supporting "friend" could watch their Scottish Cup Semi Final v Aberdeen then St Mirren v Morton, Aberdeen, Rangers & now Livingston is exclusive to Premier Sports so worked out ok. Hopefully get to watch 1 more match on it end of February (although led to believe Final is on BBC too). Quote
faraway saint Posted January 24, 2021 Report Posted January 24, 2021 About to have a massive lunch, then off to get showered/shaved, need to feel good, get the Zoom connections checked, get the bevvy organised and settle down about 3:30. I hope Goodwin emphasises this is a chance to get a step nearer to being history makers. If the players can't give their all today we're busted. Take us back to the Aberdeen/Rangers form, start on the front foot, not sitting back trying to contain them, that's not how we won the Rangers game. The last few games have been tragic, no pace, no pressure on the other teams, just insipid. At least give it a go and let's see what happens. Quote

Stevo Posted January 24, 2021 Report Posted January 24, 2021 Decided to take the plunge and took out a Premier Sports subscription. Here’s hoping I need to extend it for another month. COYS Quote
