dont think there is pay at the gate, plenty of parking in the housing estate opposite the stadium, or morrisons car park, alloa town centre is only a few minutes walk away also

Morrisons is over the main road in an industrial estate on the way into town from Tulliallan side and is about 5 minutes walk I think?

Not been to Alloa for years and years

Supermarkets usually have a time limit on parking.

Most are hour and a half/two hours so take care.

ThanksWent to Alloa two seasons ago, remember there being a big KFC outside the ground and I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure you can park there. As for PATG you could last time as I did.

I think Alloa must have some deal with the supermarket as you're allowed to park in there. There's normally a marshal as you drive in directing you where to go.

Yeah there's a pretty big car park up there which I've always parked in for games there. There's a Morrisons and a B&Ms as well so plenty of spaces available. It's around a 5 minute walk to the ground.

Mate not talking rubbish, spoke to a guy when I phoned Alloa and he said it was ticket only and Hibs had been given the full allocation of tickets.

I went down and got a ticket for a friend at ER. Got no reason whatsoever to make it up.

Couldn't Hibs hand back any unsold tickets on Saturday which could then be sold to Hibbies attending? This would still give Alloa control over how many people got in but would still give those wishing to attend at short notice the opportunity to attend.

It's been quite common in the last few years for games to be all ticket.
Then, when we haven't sold all our allocation, PATG (or pay at a wee ticket hut outside the stadium) is announced the day before the game. Would be surprised if there isn't an option to pay on the day.

Sorry I got the wrong end of the stick. Also only reason I phoned Alloa is because Wednesday morning ticket office was shut till 12:00 and I was wanting to know if I needed a ticket or not. Because they were shut I thought I'd phone Alloa.

Even if they do have a limit you can just ignore the invoice the scammers send you.

Yes .. you can ignore the 12 or so Threatening Letters taking you to Court !!! etc ... Dont pay or even reply to letters and they soon get Fed up.. !!

Another option For Camera Controlled Car parks... is to Hide your Number plate with the dogs blanket hanging out the boot !!! whoops i forgot to tuck that back in.. !!! but make sure you tuck it in just after the cameras.. :wink:

Depends how many are left, they won't return 20 or 30 tickets as they'd run the risk of a lock out at Alloa. If there's a few hundred or more then they'll return them. Hibs have a bad habit of not updating fans on how ticket sales are going, a tweet or a Facebook message is suffice.

I'm hoping for a PATG option as I'm not going to have time to organise things tomorrow.

Bloody crazy if there isn't one as I don't think it will sell out. Why make it difficult?

Maybe it's the rules set by the SPFL in cup competitions? You could always buy it online and collect it on Saturday assuming you're based in Edinburgh?

By the way the seated stand that holds 450 away fans is sold out.

I'm not mate. I wouldn't even know who's coming until late Friday or Saturday morning...or if I'll be able to go at all.

Good that the seats have sold out but I bet there'll be room in the terracing come kick off, room that I could've taken up. Ach well.

Hibs haven't actually confirmed that there will be no pay at the gate so you're not doomed just yet.

True. Also, it's not unusual for them to announce it the day before :agree:

To whom it may concern.

Just phoned Alloa and they have informed me there will be no pay at the gate for tomorrow. However if Hibs return any unsold tickets they will be on sale at 14:00 from gate 12 and 13.

They advise to get a ticket from Hibs as once they're sold that's it.

Sorry can't give any more info except the number I called is 01259 722695, so if you need any phone them they're a very helpful bunch.

I liked it the first time we went there for the novelty factor but I've gone off it big time.

Crap pitch, crap viewing facilities.

A trip to Alloa will always remind of our our most recent "great adventure".

I hope we don't have to go back for decades.
