Plenty tickets to go around. Two tickets per season ticket holder please.

[hfc rd]

25K each. Both teams should be able to sell-out their ends.

[Billy Whizz]

You'll be able to get as many as you want.
Last years pricing against Dundee Utd was,
North and South Stand £28 and £12
East Stand £18 and £7

[houstonhibbee]

By my calculation if we win all our six games before Hampden on April 22 which includes Dundee Utd, Morton and Falkirk, we would be at least 9 points plus better goal difference ahead of any of them with three games left. Assuming one of then wins all games apart from v Hibs.

Unlikely but possible

We have

Dundee Utd away
Dumbarton home
Falkirk home
Dunfermline away
Morton away
QOS home
Aberdeen cup

You've missed Morton at home, between Falkirk and Pars game

Dons will not sell out . Wrong time and over rated support. Hibees will do given superb support this season and SC bounce

[Pete]

Didn't Aberdeen shift more tickets than ourselves last time?

They travel well alright.

[Northern Hibby]

Lambing season?

[Lancs Harp]

Cant believe our allocation hasnt sold out yet. What are our fans and ticket office doing? The draw was made a few hours ago.

[hibee-boys]

30,000 attendance, hibs 17,000 the sheep 13,000.

[Hiber-nation]

They travel well alright.

The crowd in 2012 was 29,000 but both teams were awful at the time. Think we had more then them though.

[Earlydelivery]

I'll go for 36k

[Onion]

And expect they will this time, too (unless Hibs have got the league won).

Dons are fixated with winning the SC and will travel in droves to a game they'll think they've got won well before KO.

[Nicho87]

Aberdeen had 11000 or so today. Bigger support my bum.

[NAE NOOKIE]

If the KO time is 12:15 or 12:30 I cant see the sheep selling more tickets than us ...... With the exception of the League Cup semi last season when it was a bit down Hibs usually take around 17,000 to Hampden, I would be very surprised if the Dons do better than that unless its a 3pm KO. I'm guessing a crowd of around 30,000 .... though if by some miracle we have sewn up the league by then I can see us taking up to 20,000 to the game.

No chance it will sell out ..... without an OF presence a semi final will never sell out at Hampden.

[monktonharp]

It wont sell out. but, depending on circumstances nearer the time it could be nearer 40k. just my opinion

[Lancs Harp]

Our support is higher than any time in recent memory. I think we'll be good for 20,000.

[hibbysam]

38000 for me, 19000 Hibs, 16000 Aberdeen 1000 neutral and 2000 Hearts.

[GreenCastle]

Hibs had more fans than Aberdeen at the last semi final 100%.

To be fair to the sheep these early kick offs must be a nightmare.

This game Hibs - 22,000 at least - full lower tier sold.

Aberdeen ? They were turned over by Celtic in the league cup final so this may put some off. Hopefully they bring good numbers down and the crowd is close to 40,000.

[Hibernia&Alba]

38000 for me, 19000 Hibs, 16000 Aberdeen 1000 neutral and 2000 Hearts.

:tee hee:

Some of the truly obsessed in the Hearts support do indeed pitch up in the away end :lolyam:

[lugz]

Any idea when the fixture dates and times will be finalised? Trying to sort a bus already but need to wait on the confirmation of when the game will be.

Not as yet, mate.

They will want the Old Firm Sunday morning to limit any trouble.

So I expect Hibs to be Saturday - if both games are due on TV then 12.30pm on Saturday I would expect but ideally 3pm but won't be allowed on TV then and later ko won't give enough time tfor pitch to recover.

An Edinburgh Derby would sell out. 100%

Didnt previously. probably would now though.

It's up on the BBC web page this morning as 15:00 on Saturday 22nd. Don't know if this is actually based on any SFA announcement and can't find this info anywhere else. They do say it's subject to change.

The Old Firm is on BBC website as Sunday 3pm.

That won't happen so days probably right just ko times.

[HFCdeb]

Lambing season?

😂

[scooby]

Way I see it is that the team have done us proud defending the cup, and we now have a very winnable SF to look forward to. We should be taking 20k to this game, something far wrong if we don't.
No reason we can't make the final, and then who knows we could just do it again!

Agree we should be very proud of the way the team has defended the cup this season, the three wins have all been good performances and dominant with a good few goals. The Hearts win was brilliant and hope we can take something like that into the semi final. Aberdeen are a good team IMO, very good wide players for example and we will need to be very good to win. Just hope we have our best team available when it comes round.

[CallumLaidlaw]

Based on what we normally take to a Hampden semi and allowing for a bit of an increase due to better crowds this season, I'm going for 18k Hibs fans, and 15k Aberdeen fans, so around 33k in total.

[green&left]

The last one was 9000 short of capacity...



Reckon 35,000 for Hibs - Dons. We should be looking to take 20,000 minimum being cup holders an all. The fact we're in a league below Aberdeen and they'll be favorites and feeling confident might add an extra or thousand or so for them.

[Panda]

Hibs had more fans than Aberdeen at the last semi final 100%.
.

It was 50/50.

Video here shows Aberdeen had an extra section or two behind the goal, though Hibs had a bit more in the south stand.
