Best day and night ever. Still can't quite believe it. Going to the sponsors event before the parade today as well so that'll be good fun.

Hibs don't do that to teams. They came back from 2-1 down and scored a winner in injury time to lift the Scottish cup. Hibs'd it right enough.

Going back to the game itse;f what happened to Warburton's magic hat? Against Celtic he respected the opposition's midfield enough to play Ball as a holding midfielder, as they clearly lack an actualy midfielder to do that role, but played the lad from Arsenal there who really didn't have the required bite for the role. McGinn kept finding through balls, especially down Rangers right hand side, as he had the freedom of Glasgow half the time and it only got worse when Warburton made his substitutions. He's had a good season and Sevco are a few signings away from a good season next year but they've not looked comfortable at all when teams take the game to them whereas Stubbs got his starting XI and subs perfect

They can't defend set pieces. Lacked presence in the box with Ball missing.

Warburtons hat is lying at the Falkirk Stadium. He left it there when Sir Bob scored the winner in our 3-2 defeat. Must have realised it wasn't magic after all.

Thinking back to yesterday, something felt different about the game. I don't usually go with the destiny line, but that is what it felt like.

Hibs fans on here writing them off, only there for a party. Not expecting etc. The arrogance of rangers fans demanding extra tickets, the media wanking over a Rangers SC win. It just seemed to all fall into place.

As they say, "Football, bloody hell."
