Cardle is Magic Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Get that FC Edinburgh pish in the bin. According to Soccerbase, Saturday will be the first league game between the sides since before WW II. We should be looking to win but I think we'll draw. Won't be going as Meadowbank sounds absolute shite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Better hope there isn't a monsoon... I was at the last meeting between the two sides in the Scottish Cup. I don't think the present board were. A repeat of the scoreline would be funny but I can't see it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Got to do some work on Saturday so will miss this top of the table clash between the two city clubs with 100% records. If we keep up our standard of crossing from Saturday then it would take a brave fan to park anywhere around Marionville Rd/Wishaw Terr/London Rd. 0-0 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as the last meeting between the sides in the Scottish Cup ended in a 7-2 win for the Pars, I'd agree it would be funny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were woeful that day. to be fair, we can be woeful on many days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Comfortable 1-3 win for the Pars on Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Robertson looks handy for Edinburgh. I think Edinburgh have added some solid players for this level, so I'd be expecting a tough game. The new stadium looks utter turd. Am I tripping, or are we only getting something like 150 tickets? Or should there be plenty of tickets available? Surely they aren't sticking with 500 forever and there are plans to build further seating? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not entirely sure what the new stand looks like at all but certainly all Pars fans that want to go should be able to. I can't make it so haven't kept an eye on ticket sales but I'd imagine a good few hundred will go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoo61 Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Mind when the Edinburgh City boy jumped up and grabbed the ball out of the air? Think he got a red. Long time ago that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximum capacity is 1,280. I can safely say that there will be more away fans than home, so enjoy your day out. Nice to have a top of the table clash this early in the season, eh? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Awk well, that's good. Just going so I can tick it off the list in all honesty. Not expecting much at all. Probably end in a draw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 In fairness, Edinburgh's win at NCP on Saturday was pretty impressive. Kelty's home record last season was brilliant, to go there and get a good win is a great start for EC. I think Kelty's hiring of John Potter will ne a bad thing for them. Like JP, really good guy but I think he's better as a No 2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 Will there be an online stream for non-UK based fans? ParsTV doesn't seem to be showing it. Also, get Andy Smith up front for this one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAFC. Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I'm assuming that season ticket holders will get first dibs on our allocation? Can see us shifting the lot tbf. Maybe would have been different if we lost on Saturday, but can now actually see us selling out the allocation fairly comfortably. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllyMonc Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 I've been negative enough about the viability of the current stadium and the absurdity of the name change on our own thread so just to say that (unlike Ainslie Park) there are plenty of good pub options nearby for Saturday, a select few below: The Mash Tun - on Easter Rd, shows the early game if that's your thing and does food as well (15ish minutes to Meadowbank) The Artisan - on London Rd, shows the early game and the horses. No food but decent pints (10ish minutes to Meadowbank) Safari Lounge - on London Rd, no sport on TV but nice place, does pretty decent food (10ish minutes to Meadowbank) The Hoppy - on Marionville Rd, shows the early game, basically just a good football pub (2 minutes to Meadowbank) Limelite - Jocks Lodge, football and cheap (for Edinburgh) pints. (8ish minutes to Meadowbank) There are others obviously but I think any of the above would meet most of your needs. Hoppy for me I think. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other side will be standing, on a bit of roped off grass. 2 hours ago, Stoo61 said: Mind when the Edinburgh City boy jumped up and grabbed the ball out of the air? Think he got a red.

Tickers have been on sale for a couple of days now. Anyone can buy them. Edited August 1, 2022 by DA Baracus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pars emailed season ticket holders with a link to buy tickets on Saturday morning. Also been openly talked about here and on social media, with regards to how to find them on fanbase. Away tickets are available in the ‘events’ section of FC Edinburgh’s page on the app. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
