maroondevo52 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Last time I was at Arbroath Hearts fans were chasing each other as all had Maroon/ White scarfs on and no segregation, and some charity were collecting with six people walking round the ground holding a big blanket for folk to throw them cash !!!

Hairdryer Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I hope it’s Arbroath as I might make a weekend of it at the caravan park if it’s open and they have the best smokies anywhere in the world.🇵🇪🏆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poseidon Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I went to see Arbroath play East Fife a few years back when Liam Smith was on loan from us to East Fife. He played well and East fife won iirc. Good day out and would be good to go back again but Falkirk would do nicely too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SectionDJambo Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Arbroath had a decent record against us up there, in the old first division, back in the 70s. Seem to remember their manager being an unassuming guy called Bert Henderson. Then we had the Christmas Eve 7-0 in the snow, after relegation, and the promotion clincher last game of the season. I think that was the last time I was there. Would be good to go back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Falkirk's stadium is a bit bigger at 8,000 capacity we could end up getting fewer tickets there as Falkirk will have a bigger home support than Arbroath. From a day out point of view wouldn't mind a wee trip up to Arbroath, we had a really good day out when we went up for the friendly at the start of this season. I'd imagine whichever team it is it will go to LP's first. Edited January 19, 2020 by portobellojambo1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My half sister Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Falkirk fans are in dispute with their board and a lot are boycotting games. We might get a section of their main stand as they are desperate for cash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No as much of a roaster as Tam McManus is being on Twitter, wanting the game moved because Hibs will take at least 4,000. BSC play at a perfectly acceptable ground and Hibs aren’t even through yet! Having said that, I fancy they will progress and probably hit BSC for at least six. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvin Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Brockville 35 years ago me and my brother both got lifted for carrying a can of juice each into the ground. We'd walked passed about 50 polis by the time we got to the turnstile. An over zealous copper spotted a bulge in my coat and asked me and my bro to empty our pockets to discover a can of juice and proceeded to arrest us both. I was around 14 and my brother 10.

To be fair, if Hibs progress there has to be at least 3 all Premiership ties. Downside is there’s potentially 8 Premiership clubs in the 1/4 finals.
