Falkirk will contest this years Scottish cup final - the last time they won it?

1957   :D :D :D :D :D :D

I have made sure that every item of clothing I wore for Semi final inclusive of socks, boxers and scarf will be available on the day
I will have the same breakfast and have agreed with my colleague we will crawl the same pubs in the same order

Every time we have scored more goals than the opposition in a cup final we have gone on to win the trophy.

We won the cup in 1895 and 1957 didn't we?  That makes this a 5 year.

I sound like a Spurs fan. :(

I haven't been for a number two since the semi final, and I won't again until we've won the cup.
