The Petrofac game was definitely not full. You might well be right. For some reason I had it in my head both these games were on a Friday night. They've probably merged into the one game for me. At least it was a good score 7-1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you mention the cold, I remember I stood for the entire second half because I was too cold to sit down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

now then forever 298 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 What do you reckon we'll get attendance wise for the Dundee game? I went in yesterday and was really surprised about the number of available tickets. Hopefully, it's a busy week for ticket sales. Massive game.

now then forever 298 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 For a Scottish Cup quarter final against a premiership team at Ibrox I'd hope we could get at least 40k. I'm sure it was about 33/34k the last round against Kilmarnock. Will be a good test for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatNightInFlorence 696 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 The Kilmarnock game had an attendance of 33k. I'd like to think now it's the quarter final stage we would have seen around 40k but it doesn't look likely. Tickets are only £19 regardless of where you sit so if you act quick you could get some cracking seats for the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyRice1872 105 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I like the club deck the best - therefore I urge everyone to buy tickets every time they can to get the attendances as high as possible every game (so club deck will open too, and so attendances are higher), obviosuly it's not always affordable but it's 10 times better with a ticket I'm not a ST holder yet but I'll be in the Sandy Jardine stand for this one at the halfway line at the front row of the medium section - a good view Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
there'sonlyoneamoruso 1,724 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I'm going to miss coverage of this game as I'm off with the family for a long weekend to the middle of nowhere with no internet connection. FFS! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Monk 3,207 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I know its probably been asked a lot but keep forgetting, if we get to the final and its against celtic, would we get into the europa league as at least runners up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEE 4,880 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 I reckon we'll struggle in this game - with Waggy injured and O'Halloran and King cup tied our attacking options aren't great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I think losing Waggy when MOH is cup tied is a double whammy of a disappointment. That's not to say we can't/won't win but it won't be an easy game.

McKay, Miller, Forrester, Holt, Haliday, Tav, Wilson, Wallace and Clark. That's 8 people who all have a decent chance to score goals, and in games gone past they've scored goals where Waghorn hasn't.

True, there have been 15 different scorers this year I think. I made the point that waghorn hasn't scored 90% of our goals so I reckoned we would still score but an in form waghorn is a great asset to the team for his overall contribution. I think MOH looks like an exciting player and to have that on the right and McKay on the left will be great for us and that's why it's not ideal about the cup tie situation. I think we'll be ok in the league. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really look forward to seeing MoH develop here, he's starting to get there and with his pace he could be very dangerous as we found out earlier this year. The cup tie is what the lads are probably focusing on, it's a big game. We should win it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checked their last game, looks like they it's a 4-2-3-1 they play, likely put two up front though to make it a 4-2-1-3 though. The Midfield and defense will need to be on top of their game if that's the case. Might need to re-evaluate our tactics, if we play up high as we normal do. Kiernan & Wilson/Ball could be dealing with a 3v2 on counter attacks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since Kiernan can be a bit of a scare, MoH outpaced them both easily and scored. We'd need to keep the ball up in their halve, have a midfielder pull back to make it 4 at the back (wallace or tav staying behind). Because if it's 2 at the back, it'd be too easy to outpace them or one of them will make a bad tackle and give a free kick/penalty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have more space in front of goal and will score more than them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
