Hibernian boss Pat Fenlon has urged his players to finally halt talk of their Scottish Cup hoodoo by lifting the trophy on Sunday.
The Edinburgh club have not won the competition since 1902 and will be hoping to bring their 111-year wait to an end when they face Celtic at Hampden Park.
Fenlon said: "The only way to stop people from asking the question is to win it. It's as simple as that.
"It's the only way to put it to bed and we've got to try to do that.
"We can't do anything about what has gone before but we've got a great chance and that's something for myself and the players to embrace and enjoy."
Hibs have had a difficult route to the final and Fenlon wants them to cap an impressive run with victory over the Scottish champions.
He added: "We've had a really tough run to get to the final.
"In every game we've played, we've had to really scrap to get through, from the Hearts game, to Aberdeen and Kilmarnock, and the semi-final against Falkirk was a very difficult game.
"We've had to fight for the right to get here and we don't want to give that up too easily now that we've got there."
Hibs lost 5-1 to Hearts in last year's Scottish Cup final but Fenlon said: "Forget about it!. It's a completely different game, it's a completely different squad as well."
The 50-year-old has been at Plainmoor since June 2011 as assistant to Martin Ling and after the former Leyton Orient boss was put on sick leave Taylor was put in temporary charge before the arrival of Alan Knill.
Taylor remained part of Knill's backroom staff as they kept the Gulls in the Football League but shortly after the end of the season Ling's contract was terminated and Knill was then handed the managerial reigns.
"You know the situation with Martin, he is well now and pursuing other things," Taylor said. "My situation is Alan Knill has come in and I am at this present time on gardening leave.
"I think the best thing to say at the moment, which is the truth, is that I've been put on gardening leave and I'm just seeing what's going to happen at Torquay United."
