Unofficial update for the Linlithgow Rose game on 30th June

[linlithgowhibbie]

A wee birdie told me tonight that the game is being made all ticket.

All tickets will be £5.00

Hibs will receive 1500 tickets and the Rose will sell 700 tickets (not all to Rose fans BTW:wink::agree::greengrin)

There is no segregation needed in the ground.

Consideration is being made to move kick off back till 4:00pm as there is an Orange walk I Linlithgow at approx. 4:30pm

Any more updates and I will advise

[Bob Box Fish]

It’s not a hibs 11 for this one ?

Also any idea when tickets are released ?

[Smartie]

1500 Hibbies in Linlithgow on the same day as an orange walk, and a ground with no segregation.

What could possibly go wrong?

No. Hibs have said when they'll be playing an xi and this isn't one of them.

Brian I got laughed at on the original thread for suggesting this game would be all ticket. A 4pm Kick off, this could get messy. :greengrin

Also theres only 15 days until the game, if they want tickets sold they better get their finger out for postage and things, I do think this has a potential to come close to a sell out especially since its going to be mostly first team players and our first game since last season. If we have a few more signings before then I expect a fair few Hibees travelling through.

[SideBurns]

I can't believe we're playing in Linlithgow on the same day as an orange walk is taking place. On the safe assumption that a good proportion of our support would be planning to get through early and hit the town's pubs, it just looks like a recipe for disaster. The polis are going to have their work cut out...

Ha ha, still think it will take a lot to shift 1,500 tickets on 1st day of Edinburgh fair

[Bob Box Fish]

Ha ha, still think it will take a lot to shift 1,500 tickets on 1st day of Edinburgh fair

There’s a lot of hibs fans in West Lothian and I know half a dozen that are
asking for tickets already .

[linlithgowhibbie]

The reason for the possible later KO is to allow the march to take place and its participants to leave before the Hibs match finishes. The march in Linlithgow is usually about 100 max and half of them (the band) get bussed in.

Just to reiterate this is just what I have been advised. Best keeping an eye on the official Hibs site.:thumbsup:

[Since90+2]

If there's an orange march on it will definitely be all ticket as the police will want to know in advance exactly how many Hibs fans are travelling through.

Are we allowed to join in the march if we bring our own drummer?:greengrin Could do with some pre-match entertainment.

[eastcoasthibby]

Did we not take 1000 to Berwick midweek pre season last year ? So Lithgae being on the doorstep, 1500 will go easily i reckon ..

[Pretty Boy]

Can we segregate those living in the 21st century from those in the 17th?

Wondered where you’d plucked it from, thanks

[Keith_M]

There was a small town in Germany a few years back where some Neo-Nazis (about 50 of them) had planned a march. The people of the town were disgusted but, instead of having a counter demonstration, they dealt with it in a fantastic way.

The mayor gave a public speech welcoming them to the town, making a point of how inclusive the town was and how welcoming it was to strangers. Then over 1,000 of the villagers joined the march, with banners celebrating everything the Neo-Nazis were against like racial equality, welcoming refugees and the like. It was the perfect response.


I would absolutely love 1,000 Hibbies to do likewise and join in the Orange walk, all dressed in green and singing Hibs songs.

I’ve always known it as “Edinburgh trades” holiday. The Weegies had “Glasgow Fair.” Am I not up with the times?

[linlithgowhibbie]

Yip, still the "trades" unless you are from Bo'ness where they have the annual childrens "Fair" which to be honest is the biggest in Europe.

You would not believe the lengths they go to to decorate their houses and streets.

It is not unusual for the Queens house/street to cost a five figure sum!!!

Well worth a drive round on the 29th June

[Billy Whizz]

I was brought up in the game west, so not an Edinburgh boy, and we called them fairs, Paisley Fair, Glasgow Fair etc
Probably right about Edinburgh though!

"
Just to add a bit to the arrangements for the Hibs game, we will be providing Hibs with 1500 tickets for sale at Easter Rd - Hibs supporters should keep an eye on their usual communications channels for more information.

Linlithgow will retain 700 for sale locally."

As SDG says the gala parade is today. There is an orange walk. This is usually a tiny parade of 1 band and its supporters . They usually get bussed in and out as they mostly aren't from Linlithgow but parade here for some reason.
Linlithgow does have a Jousting tournament on sat and sun which draws the crowds too but other than traffic being busy that won't impact on our game/time in town.
Hope that helps.

How long does it take to walk to the stradium from the train station.

Approximately 20 minutes.

The station's at the opposite end of the town from the ground.

Darren,


Starting from the train station you have,


1. The Star, has outside drinking area.


2. Platform 3 has great real ales but quite small.


3. The Post Office is big and cheapish, a belhaven pub with pub grub and big screens.


4. The 4 Marys another Belhaven pub plenty real bear/lagers to choose from


5, Bar 1807 (used to be the "Hole") fullof women drinking wine, you cant walk in and order at the bar, its waitress service.


6. Linlithgow Tap (used to be the Footies) decent boozer with circular island bar and good choice of drinks.


7. The Crown is probably the most popular local in town but quite wee, good service and plenty choices of drinks.


8. The Star, decent boozer, nowt special but okay, Has a beer garden too


9, The Kelpies, another smallish bar but ok


10, The Black Bitch lounge, bar and beer garden, good boozer


11 West Port hotel, more hotelish than pub but has lounge and food and big sports bar(when open)


12 Rugby Club big and cheap plenty parking (may have a rugby game on tho)


13 Lastly the Rose club function room will seat 200, separate lounge and games room with 2 pool tables, decent prices attached to the Rose ground. Parking for about 50 cars on match days.



Plenty on street parking nearby and the Academy has spaces for about 100 cars if nothing on at the school.



Hope this helps.

Superb! Thanks for that. You should get paid by the Linlithgow tourist board.

Post office should be fine. Though it's one of the further walks to the ground.

Thanks,was looking at The BB as they have a beer garden and nearer ground. Would it also be ok?

[Jones28]

Which pubs are child friendly?

Used to work at the Star and it was always child friendly, it has changed hands in that time so could different now.

[Hfc_Since1875]

Which pubs are child friendly?

Best bets are definitely the star and post office! But both are the longest walks from the rose ground!

Both pretty much within a minute walk from the train station

[SideBurns]

What about The Swan for bairns? It's a pal of ma auld man who has it, but huvnae seen him for quite a while and my dad's no longer around to ask. Got a recollection of having my son in there several years ago....

[Rocky]

Just a word of warning on the child friendly pubs - you might find that kids are only allowed if you're having a meal. I know that's the case in Cafe 1807 but not sure about the others as I've only been in them with kids when having food. I believe it's a licensing law thing.

Was in The Star on the way to a Scotland game when I was going with guys from Bo'ness sometime last year and there was no problem getting my laddie in without buying food; might be subject to different licensing laws if it's a hotel though?

I’ve had my son in the post office for just a drink before heading elsewhere to eat so both there and the star should be ok for folks with children 👍🏻👍🏻

The Black Bitch has confirmed Children are welcome provided they are accompanied by adults up to 8pm.

It's a phrase that is a huge part of the town's heritage and has a far more innocent meaning than appears.

I'm having a wee chuckle at the thought of a migrant publican from Linlithgow rocking up in South Central LA and naming their pub after their local back home.

Just had another look and the number is now 1197. If the Rose sold out why don't Hibs hand over the unsold tickets to them or sell them at the ground tomorrow. Seems strange that there could be 300 empty spaces considering we got 1500 tickets

Doubt it, Hibs have said since they went on sale that there would be no PATG and with the Orange walk being on theres the potential for trouble should any of those hangers on that follow the walk to cause trouble if they pay into the ground.

[Onceinawhile]

Hibs have handed the rose 100 back. So presumably we've sold all but 100. The rose sold their allocation so must be looking at over 2,000.

[Hermit Crab]

HIBS TICKETS UPDATE!!We have received a small number of tickets back from Hibs - around 100. They'll go on sale tomorrow (Saturday) from just after 12. When they're gone, they're gone!

Did Hibs not get 200 stand tickets that were included in the 1500 tickets but were numbered separately. That was half the capacity of the small stand.

Due to a poorly child, I have 2 tickets available for the game.

£10 for both if anyone wants them - I am in Threemiletown between Winchburgh & Linlithgow!

[Rocky]

The number of my actual ticket is different from what it said online. I'm assuming the numbering online is sequential as they're sold but they won't be too worried which physical ticket they hand out.

I'd expect the stand will be an upgrade for a quid affair as usual.

That’s pretty much our strongest side. Glad Boyle is back.

[Pretty Boy]

It's fine but I'd say Laidlaw, Whittaker (as a wing back), Bartley and Murray are all unlikely to be 1st picks for a team pushing for 2nd. I'd add Gray, and both Martins to that list from the bench as well.

There's only really Porteous and Marciano missing from the squad and there's not a lot of depth there.

[wookie70]

Decent team to build on but the squad is wafer thin. No injuries today is top priority

[ElginHibbie]

thats still a good team

More than good enough for Faroe team matches, needs improvements for anything after

[superfurryhibby]

thats still a good team

Agreed. First full internationalists and a supportiing cast of very experienced players, with a few more on the bench. In the highly unlikely event of more not being added before our clash with with the Faroese in a fortnight, that will be enough to take us through.

[Stuart93]

thats still a good team

Aye that good it's still 0-0 👀

[wookie70]

Looking forward to seeing Flo and Murray up top. Won't be many defenders having time with those two chasing everything

[Souter96Mac]

Perhaps another big summer for Scott Martin, could be his last in a hibs Jersey, unless he proves to Lennon that's he's up to it.

Very surprised Gray isn't starting, I'd have thought Lennon would want to give him some good game time to sharpen him up, maybe by not starting him shows Gray that Lennon doesn't fancy him and why a new RB is being looked at.

[Sir David Gray]

It's nowhere near good enough if we want to match last season's exploits.

Fortunately we still have about a month before we should be playing a meaningful match so I'm relaxed about it.

[Sir David Gray]

As things stand, we have lost McGeouch, Maclaren, Barker and Allan from last season.

I would say we need a minimum of 4 new signings before we can say that we have a team that will challenge for top 4 again.

Not really. Linlithgow had a decent effort comfortably saved by Laidlaw. We have had a few half chances but nothing major.

[Pretty Boy]

I wouldn't get too hung up on the score here. It's about 90 minutes in the legs and a kick at the ball today.

[Sir David Gray]

Good effort from Slivka well saved.

Bear in mind that Linlithgow could quite easily compete in League 1 or 2. We shouldn't expect a hammering here.

This is a massive season for him. With McGeouch away and potentially McGinn, he really needs to step up to the plate. Has the potential and ability to do so but needs to claim a regular starting spot in the 1st team and perform consistently well

Murray scored 10 games in his 1st 7 games last season, mostly against lower division opposition. I doubt either he or NL seriously think today will change any opinions.

His wages we were paying up until a few weeks ago?

[Hibs90]

11. Lennon saying players have to leave before anyone can come in.

I am not sure if this is a bluff from Lennon or not but that is very worrying. Where is the ST money etc going? We are weaker and have roughly the same amount of STs etc. We have lost players or are about to as of tomorrow yet we need players to leave first?

11. Lennon saying players have to leave before anyone can come in.

Surely he's at it? (Not that I'm against that - he shouldn't be bragging about his huge budget, playing down our spending power is more sensible).

How come one minute he's got the biggest budget any Hibs manager has ever been given, the next he loses Allan, McGeouch, McLaren, Barker and Kamberi, with only money available to get Kamberi back?

Is he just softening us up for McGinn's departure?

There's no way we can/ should be in a position, with our current squad, that players have to leave before others come in.

I don't think Lennon would still be with us if this were actually the case.
