This may have happened in the 1980s sometime, but can anybody remember if Celtic,Rangers,Aberdeen and Dundee Utd have been the 4 teams in the semi finals of either the League Cup or Scottish Cup before?

1990-91 League Cup semi finals were between these 4 teams

Rangers beat Celtic 2-1 in the final

Also 83-84 when Rangers beat Celtic 3-2 in the final

Scottish Cup

Never seems to have happened

League Cup

1983-84... Aberdeen 0-1 Celtic (0-0, 0-1) / Dundee Utd 1-3 Rangers (1-1, 0-2)

1990-91... Celtic 2-0 Dundee Utd / Rangers 1-0 Aberdeen (both at Hampden)

It should be noted that the format of the 1983-84 League Cup made such an arrangement likely. It had a unique format that season of 2-legged knockout rounds, then 4 groups of 4 playing home-n-away with the Old Firm & New Firm clubs placed as top seeds in each group - the 4 group winners comprising the Semi-Finalists.
