Hearts and Rangers getting a 50/50 split for the semi final - 21k tickets each but Hearts have had to agree that they will pay for any unsold tickets in order to get the 50/50 split. Its unbelievable stuff.

It’ll never happen obviously but I’d love someone to turn round and say “**** ye then, we’ll not take any tickets” when they get the OF in a semi and get the “well you’ll need to pay for any unsold tickets then, boys” *****. Neutral venue my hairy hole.

The Aberdeen v Celtic Scottish Cup semi-final is to be broadcast on BBC One Scotland, with a 12:30 BST kick-off on Saturday, 20 April.
Rangers meet Heart of Midlothian on the following day at 15:00 and both ties take place at Hampden Park.

There will be an even split of tickets for Sunday's semi-final.
However, Aberdeen failed with their request for a similar allocation and will receive 19,000, with Celtic taking around 25,000 supporters.
Expressing disappointment, Aberdeen say the decision from the Scottish FA was "based primarily on historical ticket sales at this stage of the competition".

They're so far through the rabbit hole it's insane.

[LunasBoots]

Since Hearts got relegated and kicked up a fuss at the time they've recieved alot of leeway in certain things.

[LaMotta]

Hearts unlikely to sell that many tickets - they've no history of doing that in a semi v Rangers or Celtic.

[LaMotta]

Aberdeen wont sell the 19k they've been allocated either.

I could understand Hearts demanding a 50/50 breakdown of tickets for a final but I think doing this for a Semi Final is a bit strange.

Yes they should have the right to as many tickets as they can sell, with a maximum of 50%, but surely it would make sense to hold back the north stand tickets until they see how sales have gone in the rest of the stadium?

Not a dig at Hearts, it's just that no club outside of the OF take 21k fans to a semi final.

The money is all pooled for a semi final anyway isn't it? If so then they don't lose anything.

Hearts tie themselves up in Knotts with there LP system and how slow it works and they never ever learn when they dont sell more

[gbhibby]

If they charge them the average adult ticket price it will cost them £35000 for every 1000 unsold tickets.

We as a club now need to concentrate our efforts to get rid of the element of our own support who want to tarnish the clubs name every single week by continuing to act in the manner they do. Throwing items, signing songs not relevant to the club and just acting like complete and utter ********s towards others in the home support is not acceptable.

If you cannot behave don’t bother.

Spot on

Jim White was very careful not to associate himself with the game claiming he never seen it or heard anything.

A Rangers sympathiser blind and deaf to the ingrained bigotry within their club and support. What a surprise.

Not a Hearts sympathiser, but demanding a 50/50 split is absolutely 100% the correct thing to do. Yes, they may not manage to shift the tickets but that’s not the point. Until clubs start challenging the received wisdom, nothing will change.

Aye. They had a Hibs fan on who I thought totally missed the point of why we are cutting their allocations. Spoke about it hopefully being temporary to stop it as we probably won’t sell the seats. Was probably one of Jim White’s mates. Then a Celtic fan came on and said he stopped going to their away games because of what they sing etc. Hilariously, he said it’s only a problem with their away crowd.
