League Cup Semi Final

[mizer]

Draw at 3pm

 

Aberdeen

ICT

Hearts

St Johnstone

 

[Tyrant]

It's a semi I've got, nae a quarter.

[Stewart]

St Johnstone.

 

 

Tannadice?

[BigAl]

Stewart - split topic as only a matter of time before someone started a seperate post.

 

No easy draws in semi finals, and guess we were the team they wanted to avoid.

With any luck Stevie May will not be with them by the time this game comes around  

[tlg1903]

Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuunt!

 

Absolutely the team I wanted to avoid.  Still there's a few months for their form to drop yet. 

 

Tannadice is probably a little small.  I would anticipate us taking 10k easy given we have never had a better opportunity and team capable of winning a trophy.  Tynecastle would work

Very good point Al

[BigAl]

We were due to play the Tattie Howkers that weekend.

 

 

Enjoy your weekend off Lennon <<<<<

 

Whilst I hope that the rearranged fixture is as inconvenient as possible for that bunch of cunts, I guess it will probably end up costing us money in terms of gate receipts.

St Johnstone.

 

 

Tannadice?

 

It will be Tynecastle

 

Hearts will get a home match at Easter Road

[Jute]

Both games at Easter Road possibly?

[stubo72]

Both games at Easter Rd - 1or 2 of February we've to wait until!?!?!?

 

I hadn't realised it was so long away!

Hope ours isn't the TV match, to be honest: we have a tendency to fuck up when everyone is looking...

[tlg1903]

Seems the SPFL dont like hearts very much, they need the coin from hosting these games waaaaaaaaaay more than hibs.

[mizer]

Ticket panic has started already 

[tom_widdows]

20421 capacity

 

West Stand          6,407

East Stand            6,242 (New one)

Famous Five Stand 3,829

South Stand          3,943 (Traditional away end)

 

Logical split would be be - East Stand + South Stand (10185) vs West Stand & Famous Five Stand (10,236)

 

Despite the lower capacity id prefer south stand and east stand......although having seen the dates I probably wont be able to go

 

[Stewart]

Tynecastle - Saturday 3pm.

[mizer]

Roseburn will be busy.......

[tom_widdows]

Presume this was SPLs way of saying St Johnstone wont manage 10000 fans for a big cup game on a Saturday

 

Main Stand - 5,102

Wheatfield Stand - 5,902

Roseburn Stand - 3,396

Gorgie Stand - 3,020

 

Presume it will be as per the 2008 semi against the arabs

 

St Johnstone - Main Stand + Roseburn (8498)

 

Dons - Wheatfield & Gorgie (8922) (presume they will remove a few hundred seats for segregation in the corners between the fans.

[Edinburghdon]

Roseburn will be busy.......

 

[maverick sheep]

Oh dear...

[mizer]

 

Think the Balmoral (now Bensons Bar) should be our choice
