Some things are just meant to be. When we qualified for the Scottish Cup Final at the expense of St Johnstone I did a bit of research and came with a few pieces of curios.
1. Celtic have never lost a Scottish Cup Final in a year ending 7 (the number most commonly associated with good) and there have been a few
19o7 Hearts
1927 East Fife
1937 Aberdeen
1967 Aberdeen
1977 Rangers
2. Celtic have lost at least one Scottish Cup Final in years ending with any other number - 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,8 and 9.
3. Celtic have never won the Scottish Cup in a year ending 6 (the number most commonly associated with evil) - think 66 and the darnel .....
Yesterday was the ninth time Celtic have won the Scottish Cup by the only goal of the game. Previous victories as follows :-
1923 Hibernian
1933 Motherwell
1951 Motherwell
1977 Rangers
1980 Rangers
1989 Rangers
1995 Airdrie
2005 Dundee United

One half of Glasgow was happy last night
And one half of Glasgow was sad
Large parts of Fife were livid
The rest of the country plain mad.
But of all of the states that surround me
Of all the moods good and bad.
I'm with the guys who are smiling
I'm with the ones who are glad...
Uly - brilliant. I'm doing my utmost to stay oot the battle cruiser and have not gone to Mass yet so I can stay on the straight and narrow till tonight. I'm having a bottle of London Pride right now. Wishaw was great last night. Nobody does it better.
Thanks for your support mate.
