    Aberdeen

    What's the feeling for this one then? We must be favourites, and we generally do well against them in the cups. Will be a tight game though.

    I'd start the the same team from today, possibly replacing Slivka with Maclaren if fit.

    Yes, let's replace Slivka who played well today with Maclaren who wasn't deemed to be match fit for today.

    Well I think we know whats coming. They will pack the midfield, attempt to to stop us from playing and be pretty physical, its up to us to find a way to beat them. I have every faith we will.

    Not wanting to get ahead of myself here but are the league cup semi finals not normally played at different grounds unless an old firm team is involved?

    It's highly likely we'd be at Hampden.

    Celtic and Rangers will win their games, so that would be Hampden if drawn against either of them. If Hearts beat Motherwell, there's no mid-capacity venue in the central belt (and in any case we'd probably be able to sell ~20k each) so that would go to Hampden too. Motherwell or St Johnstone (extremely unlikely) is the only situation in which we'd probably go to Tynecastle.

    I'm confident we can win this one.

    I thought we were the better side when we played them a few weeks ago and now we have a few first team players back I really expect us to win at Easter Road.

    Bring it on.

    I think that has changed, the semis are at Hampden now.

    Looking forward to this.

    The only downside is that ticket sales are absolutey awful.

    Nah, MacLaren for Boyle or Horgan for me.
    Can't see it happening given MacLaren has a back injury today so suspect he will still have it in 3 days time

    Ticket sales are poor. Got my and my son's seats yesterday. Can't understand why a quarter final is so easy to pick and choose. Yes slept in for reservations.

    Midweek fixtures are a problem for me and, whilst I made the European games, there is a limit to how often I'm willing to disrupt the rest of my life. Fortunately for me, if not for the attendance figure, this game is on TV so I won't miss out completely.

    But I was one of the 7452 at the Ross County game in the previous round. Of course, that was a Saturday at 3pm which helped.
    Mature, sensible signature required for responsible position. Good prospects for the right candidate. Apply within.

    Delighted that people who can’t make it, for whatever reason, get a chance to see it

    I’m sure there are thousands, like me and my group, who will be going, but just haven’t bothered getting tickets yet

    The pods will be busy.

    I never get tickets in advance of these games.

    I'm sure there will be a good crowd.

    There will be about 12 - 14k imo which is very decent for a midweek cup game and some forget it's been an expensive start to the season for us Hibees with the 6 Euro ties...not that I'm complaining mind...

    11,092 attended back in 2015.

    Similar attendance, same score would be good.
