    I must admit I would be intrigued to see how Valakari did at a bigger club, he's impressed me a lot since he went to saints

    The bus run by the club costs £28...last week for the Killie game and for the Hibs game it was £24. Why are they charging extra for the semi-final?

    To be fair her reasoning of “I can wear it to school next week when we beat Hibs” did have me looking up how long it takes to be delivered.

    That's fine, doesn't mean I'm wrong. No-one said it was tough. It's the cost and fan experience. Take the last semi-final with Hearts. There were 19 trains that got you from Edinburgh to Glasgow in time for the lunchtime kick-off. From your front door to Hampden you could be there in under 90 minutes. Cost £16 for the train. Even quicker and cheaper by car. So if you're choosing game or pub, you may as well choose game. Group of my mates from Aberdeen weighed it up. Driving was minimum five hour round trip, prob longer if stuck in traffic. Train was £66 and tickets were another £30+, and only two made kick-off. Buses were booked up weeks before the game. My mates had two choices: get up at 6-7am, spend near £100 each (or one takes the hit and drives), basically use up the whole day for it. Or, meet in the pub at 11:30, get beers, get food, watch the game with fellow Dons fans, be home by 3pm having spent considerably fewer £s and had a better overall experience. The whole "nah they should be there, loyalty 'n that" is just taking them for granted and expecting folk to turn up no matter what. I make all the semis only because I live in Glasgow. I would probably skip a few of I still lived up there. We've gone from having a full bus come down from Aberdeen for the Hibs semi in 2017 to three of us at the Hearts semi in 2025. It's not a one-off occasion anymore. And what's the reason for that? That they're all glory hunters?

    I don't think I would be capable of getting a semi in that midden 😉 *no offence meant to any Dundonian Dons

    Nothing about the game is 'neutral' though is it? FWIW wholeheartedly agree we should complain about ends, KO time and general SFA cuntishness but the ends issue comes from 'traditions' that are cemented in segregated state run education Perhaps if Religious Instruction to place in the synagogues, temples, churches and mosques with Religious Education in schools things might be more sanitary? Might see less stop the boats flags carried by wee black clad fannies if they were better world educated too?

    You’re far from alone. It’d also be ok if the whole strip was “shrunken” by the same proportions but when you size up, the length gets too long compared to what you need for the width. Maybe they think they’re making kits for basketball players or lampposts.

    Dinna feel quite so bad now as here was me thinking I was a real fat bastard (well even a fatter bastard than I always have been) it's pesh tho when you live overseas and order the fkn thing online and when it turns up it is just aboot the right size to fit ma 15 year old daughter. Fkn bollox

    Justify it all you want but you’re not convincing me. An easy cruise down a dual carriageway and onto a motorway isn’t a tough journey, Robbo. For a club and support that likes to boast about our numbers and commitment (and, generally, it is remarkable given how crap the team mostly is), we seem to let ourselves down when it comes to semis. If we were playing the Huns at Pittodrie at 8pm on a Wednesday we’d had over 18000 reds there, so a third of them at least choose not to go to Glasgow on a Saturday for a bigger game. I just think that’s poor.

    Not just you. Macron sizing is ridiculous and easily two sizes out from everyone else. Plus, my daughter gets a Queen of the South kit now and again as she was born in Dumfries (don’t worry, she’s a red through and through) and the material used for their away kit this season is 100 times better than ours, even though they’ve also Macron. Sizing is still bollocks enough.

    It's a No from the Brochred jury. Don't see why we should have a pink shirt (very dubious connection with the castle). Our shirt is red, our second strip is white and if we needed to have a third it could be black/gold

    Going to Hampden in the Prod end is the best day out you can have in Scotland. Going to Hampden in the Catholic end is one of the worst That more than anything is why we should ask to flip for it

    I'm argue 13,000 is an outstanding effort for a semi-final, and that's before you consider the distance to travel, the lack of public transport options, the price of travel with high ticket prices lumped on top, unfavourable kick-off times, and the general poor experience of going to a game at Hampden. You can't compare us to Hearts and Hibs because distance, public transport and price of travel doesn't affect them. We'd sell 20,000 regularly too if we only had a short hop to Dundee for a semi. And even then, both have had their fair share of poor semi-final crowds. They've struggled to sell 10,000 tickets for semi-finals played in their own city before.

    You don't have a chance of winning a cup in a semi final. Finals bring expat fans from all over the place, which means more tickets are sold. Also, people maybe can't afford to attend both the semi and the final.

    Is it just me being a fat bastard or are the sizes of the new tops being a bit scrimpy and only for skinny bastards. XL is really more like a fkn medium for a skinny bastard with a six-pack if you ask me (cunts) Raging 🤬
