They're calling this one "The Underdogs Final" on account of the fact that both Caley and Falkirk beat more fancied teams to reach the Final itself
Falkirk sneaked by Hibs 1-0 where as Caley notched a famous 3-2 victory over Celtic
Of course, Hibs Vs Celtic would have been a much more marketable Finall, but hey-ho that's professional sport for you. You don't always get the result you want
This Final will be the Scottish equivilant of Portsmouth Vs Cardiff in 2008, one of the least watched FA Cup Finals of all time
Still though, for the amassed Thistle and Falkirk supporters, this should be a great occasion. It's great to see two unfancied sides battling it out for the Cup like this. Both sides are capable of decent football as well, so the match should be watchable if nothing else
Caley Thistle are yet to ever win the Scottish Cup and would have to be slight favourites, due to securing a decent top half finish in the SPFL. It's surreal seeing former Stockport County player Greg Tansey getting to play in a Final like this. I bet he'll be hoping to have a reverse of Caley's last apperance in a Final, a penalty loss to Aberdeen last season in the League Cup
Falkirk last won the Cup in 1957. The winners of the FA Cup that season? Aston Villa
An omen?
You'll have to tune in to find out
The Final will be on Sky Sports and also BBC Scotland
It will be a nice warm up in preperation for Arsenal Vs Villa afterward
If this thread makes it past two pages, I'll be amazed
