Scary Bear Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hibs away. Easy to get to and a bit of money for the club. Chances of getting through the tie? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottydog Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 We have a decent cup record at Easter Rd, outside chance of tv coverage and should make about £100,000 from the tie. to quote Turkish “it could have been a shite sight worse” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 That's a really good draw for us. Hibs will beat us, undoubtedly. But financially it's a great draw. Easy access for our fans to get over on the train, a great selections of pubs near by (The Mash Tun will inevitably be bouncing again). Also, it should attract a good crowd. Unlike the old firm, if you're away to Hibs and Hearts in the cup they generally tend to show up for their ties in the earlier rounds in good numbers. Also, it'll bring back some lovely memories of... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev23 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hibs away. Easy to get to and a bit of money for the club. Chances of getting through the tie?Not the draw I wanted but better than having to go to Dumfries or Inverness. The club would probably like the TV money but 3pm Saturday is what I'd prefer. Should be quite safe on that as Premier Sports will be choking for the Rangers and Celtic ties and the BBC will take Hearts vs Auchinleck. That leaves 1 game, but with a Highland derby, potential all premier league tie in Aberdeen/Dundee and St Mirren hosting Dundee United, we'll be well down the list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex Machina Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The club's social media staff are obviously still steaming from last night. Posted this on Facebook before deleting. Hefty confused me when my mates started messaging me talking about Allen and Gauld. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 In all honesty, I was dreading a game like one of the Saints or Ross County at home. One we'd lose, but we'd not really see much benefit from. Hibs away should hopefully see a decent 7,000-8,000 attendance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ding Dang Doo Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Not a bad draw but not great. We'll make some money but not the money spinner the club wanted and McGlynn on the radio didn't sound too extatic. No chance of it being on the TV. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Just now, Broken Algorithms said: Aye, I went just off yesterday having 6,000 or and ourselves bringing over a good number. If we got anything over what I'm expecting, I'd be delighted. It was £22 to get into Easter Road yesterday. Elgin played hardball when it came to agreeing the gate price. Hopefully the Rovers are a wee bit more accommodating, and a decent number of folk are encouraged to turn out for both sides. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stelios Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Hearts have also been drawn at home so one of them will have to shift from the Saturday. There’s also rugby on at Murrayfield so expect trains to be rammed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
