Topic: Tickets sold
41. Author: BouncyPar Date: Tue 31st Mar 2026. 14:43 With only 18 days to go, there`s still no news from the club regarding the buses they`ve apparently secured, who will get first dibs, or when they will become available. Even if there`s been a bit of a hitch, some news from the club would be better than nothing. I`m a bit disappointed tbh, I really hoped to know one way or another by now Reply

44. Author: P Date: Tue 31st Mar 2026. 16:48 Par, Sat 28 Mar 21:28 A 60,000 stadium with 2 tiers would be ideal, also with designated transport links a more central accessible area, sell Hampden to create money for it, it can be used for housing The stadium can then be opened to accommodate the expected crowd, ie top tier closed. I doubt this will ever happen due to the Glasgow bias in the SFA. How do these wonders of the world get maintained when there are no shortage or former World Cup stadiums rotting into the ground while our grassroots football withers on the vine? What exactly are your priorities - developing a white elephant for a bi decade day out? Reply
45. Author: AdamAntsParsStripe Date: Tue 31st Mar 2026. 17:30 Worth noting some countries don’t even have a national stadium. USA Brazil Switzerland Italy Spain Taking games across the country is something I’ve always been in favour of in terms of international games. The same can be argued for domestic finals and semi finals to maximise atmosphere and exposure. Tynecastle would have been perfect for our semi final.

Spot on and whilst I hate the idea of the ugly sisters financially benefiting it makes more sense to have more funds going into grassroots football. I guess it’s easier for the like of Italy as many clubs don’t own their stadia. Regarding our semi final I think Tynecastle may prove too small. I’d expect more would go to Tyncastle than traipse through to Glasgow. Reply

Tynecastle holds 19800 which for our game is adequate. Chances are, the game at Hampden won’t be much more than that. For a final that is different obviously.

Our average home fan attendance is about 5000 And who determines what a “loyal fan” is? Theres some travelling from the other side of the world for this game - are they less loyal because they aren’t part of the 5k every other week? Or are the regular attenders without STs not loyal because they don’t pay up front in June? Every stadium outside of the “big 4” in Scotland wouldn’t accommodate the number of fans wanting to attend, so hosting elsewhere would be daft. Reply

58. Author: BouncyPar Date: Tue 31st Mar 2026. 21:03 Regardless of who is or isn`t a regular, a season ticket holder or otherwise deserving or not, the prospect of watching one of our biggest games in 20 years in a stadium that`s over half empty is p!sh. That goes for any fan of any club. The powers that be can dress it up as heritage, nostalgia or the home of Scottish football as much as they like, playing a semi final between two teams with a following the size of ours in a stadium that will be at 40% capacity is a poor decision.
