| 1. Author: desparado Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 12:55 With reduced ticket prices I am hoping for a big Pars turnout for this one. Looking at Cows there doesn’t seem to be a huge amount sold so far. Surely we can muster 7k Pars fans for this one ? What an opportunity we missed in 2014. Reply |
| 2. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 13:07 It`s on BBC TV which won`t help the attendance. Reply |
| 3. Author: Lucho_8 Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 13:55 I would have been expecting a big attendance too but as you say not looking likely when looking at the seating map. Reply |

| 5. Author: pars no1 Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 15:26 Very poor if it’s a low turnout. Everyone praising the club for the prices then sit at home and watch it. Reply |
| 6. Author: Big T Par Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 16:00 I`d definitely be there, but on call unfortunately. Hopefully be there for the Thistle games 🤞 Reply |
| 7. Author: livipar2 Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 17:08 And yet we have thousands who think they should be entitled to a Cup Final ticket… Mon the Pars!!!!!!!!!!! Reply |
| 8. Author: BouncyPar Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 17:19 livipar2, Mon 4 May 17:08 This 100%. Fair enough, there`s always going to be a few who watch from afar, and genuinely can`t make it for a number of reasons. But if everyone around the town who is suddenly a lifelong Pars fan now we`ve made the final, and assumes they deserve a ticket to Hampden, put a bit of coin behind the turnstile tomorrow, that would be nice Reply |
| 9. Author: Foresters Par Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 17:25 I`m a new Par. I`ve only lived here for 3 years. Originally from London and a West Ham supporter. Season ticket holder for the last two years. My personal view is that we should take support wherever we can. Also if you`ve already shelled out for a season ticket and a Hampden ticket with another one on the horizon then cut people a bit of slack. It`s expensive and times are tough. Reply |

| 11. Author: BouncyPar Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 17:36 Or, the new support around the town could take the opportunity to familiarise themselves with the team vs Arbroath, and put a few quid directly into DAFC pockets before they head thru to Hampden Post Edited (Mon 04 May 17:36) Reply |

| 13. Author: PARadise Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 17:39 We should be packing the place out but in saying that I think I prefer the die hard 5k being there than the 10k day trippers. Reply |
| 14. Author: Hay Fever Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 17:46 Taking to few people today, who didn’t even realise the home game was on tomorrow Reply |
| 15. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 17:47 I think given the occasion you will get people at the game from tge surrounding area who are not ordinarily Dunfermline supporters but support other clubs typically Rangers or Celtic. Its an opportunity for supporters to bring their family along. I recall last season when the club did this whole families came along which is good to see. I used to go as a child with my father and thats how I ultimately became a supporter some 55 years ago. Long term investment! G Wardrope Reply |
| 16. Author: parsfan Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 17:47 The game`s tomorrow, you don`t need a ticket today. If we had already sold loads this thread would be full of rage about them being bought by Celtic fans. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The universe is ruled by chance and indifference ![]() Reply |
| 17. Author: Rusty Shackleford Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 18:13 A few really disappointing comments here. Life is expensive and full of commitments. Should people need a certificate of merit to prove how big a fan they are before going to Hampden? These so- called "day trippers" might turn into die hards of the future. I can`t make it tomorrow night due to childcare? Am i OK to still go to Hampden? Who do i get to sign it off? Reply |

| 19. Author: SusieQ Date: Mon 4th May 2026. 18:15 I`m a ST holder but won`t be at ANY play offs as can`t make midweek games. My bank balance is grateful even tho I`m gutted to miss games & I`m thankful the games are on tv. Not everyone`s circumstances are the same and not everyone can just suddenly shell out for extra games on top of a season with a 4 home game cup run, an unexpected semi final & final, potentially 3 - 6 play off matches, and for some of us, a very expensive World Cup trip at the end of it all! Anyone wants to give me the winning lottery numbers, please feel free 🤔🤣 COME ON YE PARS! Post Edited (Mon 04 May 18:16) Reply |
