Yeah, Brian, if you are Neil Lennon in Dunfermline and you come in here as essentially a mid-table championship side, I suppose, as far as reference points go, knocking out three Premiership teams, two top six teams and the reigning holders of the Cup,
It's about all you can do isn't it, it's about as good a place as you can come into this as a mid-table championship club.
for a while it took on a very similar theme the ribbons on the trophy at the end of the day would always end up being green and white but a year ago Aberdeen surprised everyone and beat Celtic then an even bigger surprise when St Mirren did it in the League Cup albeit under Wilfred Nancy and everyone knows the back story but it's almost unthinkable that Celtic lose three consecutive cup finals at Hampden is it not?

Aston Oxborough has been brilliant for Dumfermline, got recalled by Mullerwell, missed a crucial playoff game.
Now he's back to take place in the cup final.

There's always a lot of intrigue on cup final day.
So many disappointed faces, I'm sure, who've not been chosen.
Gabriel will run through the lot for us.
And James Forrest has seven of these winners' medals in the house.
Yeah, I mean, Brian, if you wanted to be really pernickety about it, that probably is a problem position for Celtic, if you want to call it that.
