What I canna understand is how few County had, sub 2000 was it?

 

This tournament is half of their (and our) shot at actually winning summat.

 

I understand there's a season ticket culture these days, and with cup ties nae being on it, there's an extra shell-out for the game.

 

But it's nae like it was Queens Park or the like in the first round, this was a home game against a big side (a side that they have a terrific record against at home) for a 1/4 final place.

 

If I was a County fan, I'd be well disappointed with that turn out.

St's are part of the problem,but theres more to it than that.My first memory of a SC game was during Bonthrones era.We were getting crowds around 10,000 in '74/75 for home games prior to the SC game v Motherwell,but got 24,000 for that one.

      League crowds are probably a bitty more now,but weve struggled to get 10,000 for some SC games.Theyre down at most other clubs too

I mind that game. The cup was a much bigger deal then, also, we'd put out Deadco and the Joooot in the previous rounds.

Cup winners still get a europa league place. Its league cup that has no placed attached.
