So one all Premier tie and no doubt Sevco's trip to Dumbarton will be the live game!

 

Anyway, delighted with that draw.

I have a feeling Spartans will keep it at Ainslie Park, biggest day in there history, they will want to make it an occasion, the scramble for tickets will be crazy, probably about 350 loyalty points required 😊

Yeah surely move to ER. Do cut price tickets etc. Would set them up for years and as a local team seems like the right thing to do

I know was an attempt of being funny .

Not every part if the scottish game is a conspiracy. 

Don't say that out loud mate. Some on here are convinced EVERYTHING is a conspiracy not just in favour of the old firm but against us. 😂

I've seen the capacity of Ainslie Park given as 3.612, including 534 seats. You are going to struggle to get that number in safely with standing mainly on grass bankings.

 

Record attendance at Ainslie Park: 3,127 v Manchester United (23rd July 2011)

I think the police might have thoughts on it.

Is it like 3500 capacity, if they want to test us , they will keep it at home and not move to Easter Road ( or elsewhere) 

 

I hope they keep it at Ainslie Park. Spartans will fancy it.

 

The Edinburgh City v ICT game there a few years ago was bouncing.

Really comes down to whether they want the money or not - perhaps depends on whether it's on TV if they keep it at home. If they go to Easter Road they might get what 12k ish but they'll need to pay Hibs.

I don't think Ainslie Park is an option.

 

Meadowbank Stadium never was for a Thistle vs. Hearts/Hibs.

 

It must be Lochend.

They can get 3500 in Ainslie could see this being a Friday night on tv. It’s not as if their ground isn’t eligible. 
 

imagine moved to ER to get in a few hundred more Hearts fans 5k attendance with 15k empty seats or a packed out 3.600 at there home ground.

 

 

Hearts would take at least 8-10k to Easter Road.

The fact that Spartans are a league club means they really should be holding it there.  Be interesting to see how many tickets we would get.

With a 3500 capacity, how many tickets are we likely to get . Maybe a few hundred?

 

Spartans crowd v Arbroath was 647. 

 

Last home league game was 527.
