My biggest worry is Robbie’s approach to the game I believe we have the players to win let’s see how we set up

Why would they be entitled to the full stand partick got a corner yesterday ? Can’t we put them in a tiny corner surely ? 

Due 20% in the cup, Partick had a bigger than usual allocation.

Where are Hibs? 

[The Gorgie]

Would have prefer pumping them at Hampden but pumping them at Tynecastle will just have to do 😂

[jock _turd]

I think we have to give them a certain percentage of the tickets available for the tie? is that not the rule?

It does seem amateur.  A clear bowl, with the numbers merely swirled than mixed. 

[Victorian]

Bugger.  Was hoping we could win the cup without a goal conceded and without a home tie.  Goal thing's still on.

Partick had more than just the usual corner yesterday. They had about 2,800 fans. 

[AC Mallin_51]

I get that we’ve a better chance against Celtic at tynecastle than Hampden but we’ll still more than likely now need to beat rangers at hampden also. Out of all the dross left in the cup I can’t see how this is a good draw for us

We'll have to beat both old firm if we are going to win it this year.

Was probably always going to be the case though 

[LochcarronJambo]

Pretty sure it won’t be on the Sunday with Scotland v Ireland at Murrayfield that day

[Madvlad65]

Do we have to give them the full stand? If not give them the minimum

[buba]

Looking at the teams left,  would've had to beat Celtic to win the cup anyway,. So far better to get them now at home, than semi's or final at Hampden,. And don't forget this is Thier 2nd worse draw they could've gotten as well

Need to be 12:30 on the Saturday then I’d imagine. I doubt they’ll be wanting a late kick off in Edinburgh at a weekend.

Totally agree

[The Treasurer]

Scotland v Ireland at Murrayfield on the Sunday. 

Our game will be played on the Saturday 

[Captain Sausage]

Shite draw. At least it’s at home!

[InternationalJambo]

Away team get 20% of the stadium capacity in the cup.

Usually one beats the other, annoyingly. 

[jbee647]

If they insist on the 20%
we need to request 12k next time we get a cup draw at parkhead, aye right

Surely Hearts dig there heels and say you are getting one section, and no more about it, citing our 15k season ticket holders and sell out home crowds

I admire the positivity but we are now going to have to beat Celtic and Rangers in all likelihood.

If we make the semi's then there will be one major obstacle, not two.

 

That's the view I'm taking.

I'll have what you are on matey ...

 

[DS98]

It’s a pish draw no matter how folk dress it up. Aye, it’s better to play them at Tynie than Hampden but if we somehow manage to get passed them, Rangers will be waiting for us. We’ll now need to beat them both.

They never got a corner yesterday.  They got as many tickets as they could fill.

 

Clubs are entitled to a percentage in the cup. 

[neilnunb]

We play them at Darkheid in the league the midweek before too. 🤦‍♂️

Minimum being what?

 

 

Sorry minimum is the wrong word. 

 

Up to 20% of capacity. Is what visiting clubs can claim. So pretty much the full Roseburn. 

[SwindonJambo]

Is that correct ? We should give them the bare minimum.

In the Cup they're entitled to 20%, or basically the whole Roseburn.

You sure it’s 20%  would that not be more than the whole roseburn, I alway thought it was 10% which would be about 1900 so no the whole stand

Correct, they won't be over the moon at getting us away.

Come on both Hearts teams against them in the Scottish Cups.

It's in the competition rules. 😄

[EIEIO]

Better to play them at Tynecastle than Hampden or Parkhead. Not easy but prefer to play them rather than the Hun who have gubbed us easily twice thus season , so far.

[JTJ]

We play them at Parhead on Wed 8th March so it's a double-header

We would maybe have to play them both at Hampden regardless. 

[ri Alban]

Absolute shite draw.

Get that Chief exec to tell the SFA to forget Collum and well have the boy from Edinburgh please for a change

[LochcarronJambo]

What I dont understand is why the numbers on the balls show up & dont have to be opened when pulled out-clear as day the Kilmarnock fan doing the draw knew Kilmarnock were still in draw so went for number 2 knowing it was Celtic against us

[Martin_T]

In 2020 we were penalities away from lifting the cup, which would have meant we'd beaten Rangers, Hibs and Celtic to do so.

Alas, it's the SFA's competition.

They will get their full 20% allocation. Its the competition rules.

Just need to play some midfielders and we have a chance 😄

Thats how many they requested.  They could have taken the whole stand behind the goal should they have wished.

Yeah, unfortunately it will be the whole stand. 

[thegreatsd]

Good thing is that when we beat Rangers in the semi we should have an easy enough final. Bring them on👍🇱🇻

It’s in the rules we don’t have to cite anything. Only flaw in your point being hearts would be liable for the 12k tickets regardless of how many we sell. If we don’t take 12k fans we would be out of pocket. 

[Silvery_Moon]

It's good to be positive but let's be honest. It's a pish draw considering some of the rubbish left in the competition.
