DB-14 Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 I see Hibs have just been given 2k away tickets for Motherwell this weekend. I wonder what sort of capacity we will get this weekend then as to have 2k in one stand at Fir Park surely we means we should be looking at minimum 8k?

I still expect us to be disappointed with numbers for Celtic game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Treasurer Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Surprised that any club is in a position to offer away tickets at this stage. Just shows how piss poor some clubs support is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David McCaig Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 We should be bidding for a capacity which allows us to get all ST holders in the ground. Tynecastle was ridiculously under-populated yesterday, with the lower tiers not open at all and nobody in the back 6 or 7 rows of the upper tiers either..

Gorgie_Rules Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Any idea when we will find out how many we can have? Think I read on another thread it would be some point today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume they'll all be in there own vehicles or socially distant public transport. Nothing to do with covid but even they wouldn't want to get too close to one of their own.

I agree but it's probably to do with getting in and out rather than spaced out inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't sound right. What about the Motherwell fans that are not ST holders, will they get bumped, and 2k away are allowed to attend?

I know Motherwell effectively gave away season tickets but would still be grossly unfair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bean counter Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Rangers allowed 23,000 Celtic 24,500 along with Motherwell's 6,500 all bigger percentages than us. Thats approx 42 %, 41%, 48 % and we get 22.5 %. Makes no sense at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be surprised if we were being more conservative in our approach and less aggressive with the council. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understandable given that in recent weeks Edinburgh and Lothians have been at the top of the Covid infection charts. That’s no longer the case so hopefully for Aberdeen game we will get significantly more in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edinburgh council aren't exactly known for being above board or fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
