I agree with you 100%, but at the end of the day, that cup final matters not on fuck to me.
Another fake honour for the scum if they win it.
I'd prefer Hearts win it, but 5 minutes after the whistle I'll be more than happy with the benefits it has brought us.
As for McAllister, he's basically saying, "listen, we are not Celtic and will not obsess about a game of theirs we are not involved in, lost the right to get involved in when we lost to Aberdeen and will take whatever positives come from the game after it'sdone, don't ask us about it, as it's not our problem"
Could he have put it across better? Maybe.
Could it have been worse? Absolutely, he could have went on about Celtic like they were important like you know the poets would do if roles were reversed.
