Watson Oh The Bar! Scanlon Yes! Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 We should put my earlier suggestion to Viaplay about scratching both semis. They’d bite everyone’s hand off for three old farm matches, and we’d have old farm fan coin pretty much paying our budget for a decent level manager or a fair chunk of our summer transfer fee budget. It’s what the public want, so it is, byrraway bigman but. Link to comment

Then you click on their profile and it’s a Celtic fan from Montrose Saw one from Belfast calling US gloryhunters earlier 😂 Link to comment
WesthillWanderersFC Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 3 hours ago, Don Shula said: They do but they must also share the "lesser" semi with BBC, which I would imagine will be our game as I would think they will see the other game as a bigger game with more of a chance of a competitive game and a possible upset Hearts have never beaten their big brothers at Hampden in their 150 year history. There’s as much chance of an upset in their game as ours… virtually nil. The Huns will skelp Hearts comfortably as they always do. Link to comment

brunstanesheep Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I seriously hope we are not demanding a 50/50 split for the semi. Link to comment

Site Sponsor Dom Sullivan Posted March 14 Site Sponsor Share Posted March 14 50:50 allocation rejected. (not that we’ll sell them anyway) Fuck the SFA Link to comment

The Gee Man Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The rule should be clubs get the 50/50 split and told if you don’t sell them you pay for them! Clubs would then decide themselves what allocation they wanted. It shouldn’t be bent from the start to suit 2 Glasgow clubs. Link to comment

Clubs would then decide themselves what allocation they wanted. It shouldn’t be bent from the start to suit 2 Glasgow clubs. Hearts are getting 50/50. Normally agree but pointless us even arguing the case on this occasion. Kick Off Time, Past semi final attendances, being live on BBC and take into consideration how poor we are at the moment then 19k is more than enough and i'll be amazed if we even take 13k down for this one.

sooth_stander Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Think we'll do well to sell into 5 figures, for this one, apathy being the main reason, and the KO time not helping Link to comment
Frank Grimes Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 Our allocation is 19,000 which will be more than enough We’ll be lucky to shift 15k Link to comment
Kincardine_Mearns_Red Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Nobody should bother going. Complete boycott and Fuck the SFA! Link to comment

DeltaRay1903 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 If we take 15,000 I'd be amazed. I'm certainly not bothering but at a neutral venue it should always start as a 50/50 until such times one of the clubs involved agrees to take less. Anything else is making a mockery of any claims of neutrality. 1 Link to comment
Dynamo Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 So long as we get half for the final. The club are just so off the mark here though. I can remember one time where we've taken 20k to a semi final ( Vs United, Saturday, 3pm) about 10 years ago Link to comment

Seem to recall we brought about 10K for the semis against them when we lost 4-0 and 4-1. This feels similar in that everyone knew we were going to lose then and now. Link to comment
torry_battery_ram Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 On 3/12/2024 at 7:33 AM, WesthillWanderersFC said: Amuses me this “the Tims are there for the taking” chat I’ve heard. Effectively an away game, outnumbered 4 to 1 in crowd. The record above speaks for itself. Our mentality against the Tims is pathetic They’ll be back at full strength, read last night that Carter-Vickers, Hatate & McGregor will all be available by end of March. Both Dons & Hearts will lose comfortably. Hearts record against The Rangers is possibly even worse than ours v Celtic It’ll be the Bigotfest the media crave. First in 22 or 23 years in the Cup Final. Jonathan Sutherland said on TV the other day "it would be fitting if the 150th Scottish Cup Final was Rangers v Celtic" Link to comment
davierobb Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 After that watch last night cannot be arsed with how many tickets we get for the semi final. That team from last night minus Shinnie. Could be as embarrassing as most of this season has been. Link to comment
Andy_123 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Pathetic that we aren't given the opportunity to sell 50% first then leftovers go to Celtic, but honestly wouldn't be surprised if we only shifted 5k or so. Who in their right mind is wanting to spend money to go and watch us get gubbed 4/5-0 by Celtic? Link to comment
