yes, we drew the game - raith rovers won the penalty shoot out to determine who got the cup. we "progressed" (the phrase used I'm sure) against Benfica on the toss of a coin. Can't recall what your question was, but hope I've answered it Edited by justinjest, 10 Mar 2018, 01:27 AM.

It certainly felt like a defeat against R Rovers in 94 and the huns in 2016, devasted, dont recall taking any solace and thinking we drew those games. To say otherwise is mad. a bookie would have paid out on the draw but thats it as far as calling it a draw imo, we lost those games |

I was at both games and I was devastated as well, but as the bookies state, the games were drawn Did we defeat Benfica, no we won on the toss of a coin - I'm pretty sure the Benfica supporters were devastated that night as well (I'm pretty sure the match report mentions this) - do you think we beat Benfica? |

seeing as I've asked soupnazi the question, I might as well ask you as well, do you think we beat Benfica in 1970? |

Bit different since it was the toss of a coin but as there were two possible outcomes and we proceeded then yes, we did beat them, we certainly didnt lose. But the pens issue is more clear cut, our players missed penalties, theirs didnt so we lost Its quite a binary decision in my mind, no grey area |

This nonsense isn't up for debate. Penalties/ coin it determines who wins.Winners go through or ..,well...win. Can't understand why people tie themselves in knots over this: new club won and progressed to the final. We lost cos we didn't get to the final. It's been gone and dusted. If we had won we would have celebrated a win. |

Rangers won the game on penalties. You can frame it in a different way. When did they last beat us over 90 minutes? A long time ago |

If I remember correctly, it was the Benfica game that effectively started the process of finding a new way to determine the outcome of drawn ties, resulting in the penalty shoot out being introduced. |

Citing bookies practices has more interpretation than in your example. In 1970 betting was limited to 90mins play and probably “to qualify.” There was no opportunity to bet on the outcome of extra time, or penalties as the case may be. You can do that now of course. In every case you either win or lose a bet. Back to the match and one team is knocked out and that in any instance is a defeat. |

On a serious point, when was last time the Huns last beat us in 90 minutes? March 2012 - 3-2 game? |

Do the goals scored in a penalty shoot out count towards the players total goals for the season? Not directed at you and a bit off topic but just reading this debate and it got me thinking about if the penalty shoot outs are counted officially or ignored by the players? |

In terms of points it has. That's of our making though, but I don't think it's that unreasonable a comment from Wilson. Edited by tinytim81, 10 Mar 2018, 09:45 AM.

Wilson isn't that bad. Can't remember him saying anything about Celtic that was particularly shocking. He's no Provan or Walker. |
