Also, at the point where the ball was struck, it does appear from this better angle that there's a hint of an offside, but not Mccarthy.

Check where Tait's (who made the initial header) right leg is. 😁😁😁

Tynecastle or Easter Road then. 

Would be a much better atmosphere for both sets of fans than a half empty hampden surely ffs.

Don't actually disagree.

The 2010 Semi vs Hearts was at Fir Park and it was absolutely rocking that night.

What a team performance that was St Mirren put in on Wednesday night. Massive credit to Goodwin for the tactics. Mason man marking Tavernier out the game which resulted in the quietest game the Rangers right back has had in months, and big Obika pushing himself up onto Goldson at every opportunity, stopping him setting up attacks with big diagonals out to the wingers or being allowed to carry the ball over the half way line. 
 

McGrath over the last 6 weeks now showing the sort of form that I think every St Mirren fan knew he was capable of. Showed glimpses of his ability in starts and spurts, but his confidence is sky high now, long may it continue. Erhahon and Doyle-Hayes play with a confidence we’ve not seen since McGinn and McLean were starting for us in midfield. Never shy to play the difficult pass that gets the opposition turning back towards their own goal, doesn’t always come off but pays dividends when it does. 
 

Apart from the Goldson goal and the first 10-15 minutes in general, the defence were their usual solid self. It’s actually unreal how St Mirren have managed to put a back four together with as much quality as that. As I said on another thread, the signing of Richard Tait is Saints best peice of business for years, maybe since signing Stevie Thompson. He’s absolutely quality and I was surprised to hear that he’s only 31, plenty left in the tank. Full defence and goalkeeper deserve massive plaudits though, don’t think it would be outlandish to claim that it’s the best back 5 outside the Old Firm.
