Well the inevitable has happend Celtic and Rangers have drew each other in the Scottish Cup semi Finals. I for one am glad as it will generate some much needed interest in the Scottish game. This game has got a bit of bad press over the last few years but it has been badly missed by most football fans after all it is one of the biggest football derbies in the world.

Will anyone else be watching

    Won't be watching, but I do think that Rangers have a chance, in a 1 off game, as Celtic are not playing well at the moment and there's trouble at the club.

    Celtic one of the Scottish Premiership Clubs that voted to kick Rangers out of the league so even more axes to grind.  I expect it to be a brutal game.  Not sure if I will get to watch

    Well Francis I for one will be watching it as an avid Celtic fan. As for the result I am fully expecting a Celtic win, however I expect it to be a closer encounter than last year when the two sides met in the semis of the League Cup...

    Since Rangers will be the underdog and not expected to win because they are playing a team in a higher division, It will be a bit one sided.  --- Never mind though when the Boardroom shennagans are finally sorted out, Rangers will be able to recruit high quality players and take their rightful place as the premier team in Scotland. 

    Won't be watching the game as the result is too predictable.. ----  Celtic are certain to win.
