Captain Canada Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I think we'll take around 15k but the attendance isn't worth fixating on. Even the performance on the day doesn't matter really, we need to just find a way to reach the final. I'm expecting a really difficult game.

If we only take 15k and manage to get to the final and play sellick it wont be a 50/50 split. Itll be embarrassing if we dont take at least 20k to the semi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irony is I could handle a crisis better than this. Rest assured my Foundation payment is for life In a crisis Hearts fans have a fantastic record of getting behind the team and the Club. We are certainly not in a crisis however sometimes I feel I’m dying by a thousands cuts having to watch Levein’s brand of mind numbing football. Regardless I’ll be at Hampden.

3fingersreid Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I know I should be excited at the prospect of going to the semi final but I’m struggling to actually get enthused about it, which is a sad inditement about the way we’re playing at the minute . I think people will wait to make their decision about going until after the derby but I think I’ll be joined by around another 16,000 Hearts fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debut 4 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 3 hours ago, Sir Gio said: Half of the 30k at Murrayfield Some folk get a wee bit too defensive. Yes, it’s a semi at Hampden v a lower league team and you’d think plenty would want to be there given its the best opportunity from the draw. But how we are playing always affects the gate. Even at a national semi. Its also on the tele and there’s always a section of the support who’ll assume we’ll win and will stay at home to watch it. Past evidence shows we didn’t even fill our 3 stands at Fester v ICT in 2014 for the league cup semi. Would love to think we’ll take in excess of 15,000 through as many will see it as a big day out. It will also help the team lift their game(hopefully). If it doesn’t then they don’t deserve the backing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1971fozzy Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 All depends on the next 3 league game results. Could be 13,000 going through worst case or could be over 22,000. imho of course. Hoping we beat the sheep and vermin , the usual pants down at Ibrox is a given though. But if we can win these 2 home games we will take through a decent crowd.

Baxfee Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Wonder if we’ll be getting the ‘huns’ end. If they’d any thought of what’s best for the fan, they’d sell the north and south stands first. Then again, they’d demolish Hampden and rebuild a half decent ground! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm normally a happy clapper but I believe the TOTAL attendance will struggle to top 20K. Might as well be realistic at the outset rather than having people posting after the event saying how rubbish the attendance was. It's Inverness at 12.15 at a pit of a stadium at a period in time where Hearts would struggle no matter who we were playing. One other thing early Kick offs for TV definitely affect the attendance imo as not all Hearts fans come from Edinburgh and not all fans have cars.
