Scottish Cup - Hibs v Elgin

[PatHead]

Just noticed it is the 3rd round of the Scottish Cup this weekend.

Surely means that the draw for the 4th round, when we join in, will be this weekend. Does anyone know when?

[Diclonius]

It'll be Tynecastle away again.

Re the actual question, I have no idea but it was the 20th November last year, the Monday after the 3rd round. So presumably same again?

[PatHead]

Great marketing from SFA again.

[sauzee=legend]

Celtic will get Someone like Asda FC at home!
The Rangers will get Buckie FC!

The dream..

[Diclonius]

I haven't been to many away games this season, so might just go with the lottery and attend this game wherever we end up.

[Steven79]

I'm going to be in a fix if we get through and play at home on the 9th of Feb as I've got Scotland v Ireland is on the same day...

Been to 5 this year and we've lost every single one, think I'm going to take a break to give the team a chance to get a decent result

[Billy Whizz]

Believe the draw is around 5.45pm on Saturday
Gives me enough to get home after the game to watch it

Probably end up with Hearts at Tiny or is it Tinny?

[Onceinawhile]

Is the fix, who to sell your rugby tickets to? I'm sure some of the three times a year crowd will be without tickets and want to go.

[offshorehibby]

Been waiting for the draw for ages. Wanting to book a holiday flying out around about 19th January but been holding back in case we get a home game on the 19th.

[Billy Whizz]

Don’t know about everyone else, but the draw for this round always excites me, and always look forward to it
Really could do with a favourable draw, as it’s our 1st game back after the winter shutdown

[PatHead]

Snap. Anyone at home though I would prefer to avoid a championship team who are on a good run.

[B.H.F.C]

A league two or non league team at home please. Easiest tie possible.

Would settle for Bonnyrigg away again.

[Billy Whizz]

Would settle for Bonnyrigg away again.

Queens Park away would be nice

[SteveHFC]

A wee trip up north.

[Iggy Pope]

A wee trip up north.

I’ve never seen the Hibs play at Elgin (too young for the tours) or Peterhead. Not sure who else is in the draw but North is appealing if it’s not Aberdeen. (Although, we’ve not done badly last couple of cup ties up there IIRC)

[sauzee=legend]

Queens Park away would be nice

I like the sound of that.
I wonder if we will get a 50/50 ticket split....

That's my pick for this round every year. Think it would be a great day out

This, please

[monktonharp]

I haven't been to many away games this season, so might just go with the lottery and attend this game wherever we end up.we'll be running a bus wherever we end up, wi the exception of that wee gorgie ground.:wink: 2019 is our year !:wink:

[monktonharp]

Been to 5 this year and we've lost every single one, think I'm going to take a break to give the team a chance to get a decent resultjust you stay away Ivan. don't need losers like you. will be in touch for the final :wink:

[Tornadoes70]

Tannadice remains a favourite away ground for me since what seemed very steep terracing to the away stands we now populate. We always take a big noisy travelling support there and its normally a stress free journey with a good game of football and hopefully a decent result for us.

Their stewards are generally a bunch o' erseholes! cant forget some big bumptious bugger jumping out of a cubicle taking pleasure by threating a young lad for smoking in the toilets. we know there are rules, but why not do what lots of clubs do at half time? let the smokers oot for a smoke!!

:agree:

Temporarily forgot about their overzealous stewards who jump on the slightest movement. They are a bunch of bar stewards right enough. Sitting down near the front advertising boards squeezed in between a couple of big lads with jumpy stewards can be a nervy experience. A seat up the back rows or in the other stand is preferable.

Never realised Edinburgh City played ICT tomorrow. Could be a decent game.

It's a problem as it's not possible to attend both games when they're played at the same time.

I'm recording the Argentina game to watch when I get back from Easter Road today.

Home to Elgin City

[silverhibee]

Home to Elgin City

That would have been a good away day, but home advantage should see us scrape a win. :greengrin

Shame that isn’t away.

We've never played Elgin before. Should be fun.

[Iggy Pope]

Bugger.
Said earlier in the thread I’d never seen Hibs at Elgin. Ah well, home draw is a good draw.

Piss easy ties for everyone except the Hertz this time round.

Also, Hibs and Hearts season ticket holders can get in for "Half Price!"

[Billy Whizz]

Our development team played them in the Irn Bru Cup last season

[eastcoasthibby]

Hope:

Celtic v Hearts
Aberdeen v Rangers
Hibs v Anyone else at home

I would worry about us getting anyone in the draw, we have.too many players who just cant compete for the ball in a game ..so with many teams being physical it will be a challenge !!

[hibee_girl]

So with both us and Hearts having home games will one game be on the Sunday or will they let us both play on the same day?

Craig Beattie plays for Elgin City now. Wait until you see the state of hm, he is seriously out of condition. :greengrin

I watched him ‘play’ at Borough Briggs ‘ a couple of weeks back. I seriously doubt that he will make the starting line up let alone score.

Edinburgh City v Hearts (played at Easter Road)
Aberdeen v Hibs (live on BBC Scotland, 7:45pm on Monday)

[Billy Whizz]

The glamour tie of the round is Auchinleck Talbot v Ayr. 4,000 capacity, the place will be bouncing, would be the perfect game for TV to show, but they won’t

[Famous Fiver]

Can't wait to welcome Mr Beattie to Easter Road.

I sit quite near the front so may be able to have a friendly chat with him.

[Hibbyradge]

When's the game?

[hibee_girl]

When's the game?

Weekend of 19th January

I was up at Elgins ground a couple of seasons ago on a Wednesday night, one of the coldest games I have ever attended, the drive up was nice but during the winter there was a fair bit of the white stuff about, when we arrived in Elgin the sun was out, that soon changed when the game started, snow sleet rain all blowing in in different directions, not a bad wee ground, came back the Aberdeen way home and think I got back into the house about 3 in the morning, would be up for it again if we are held to a draw but think we will win 1-0 at home. :greengrin

[Dashing Bob S]

Tough on Hearts because, well, other team.

[G15 Hibs]

Will still score against us

Beattie tends to play at the back now.

Of course, this doesn't mean that he won't score.

It'll be Saturday 3pm. TV games will be Cowdenbeath v Rangers & Celtic v Airdrie. Maybe one of the all-Premiership ties or Raith v Dunfermline if we're lucky.

EDIT: Actually, given Hearts are at home it could be Sunday. Here's hoping it isn't!

[PatHead]

There is egg chasing at Murrayfield on the Saturday. Surely Hearts will be moved to the Sunday.

Sorry my mistake.

[McrHibee]

On my way back from Perth the day after the Hibs match on a Friday night against St Johnstone last season, on the way home to Warrington I looked for a game and new ground to do and opted for Central Park n Cowdenbeath v Elgin for some reason. With the snow and rain lashing down, and temperaturs hovering below zero, I ended up in the middle of nowhere hoping to get a connection to Cowden and the only other person on the platform was a fella from Elgin, who'd set off at 6 in the morning without knowing if the game would be postponed, ankle deep in Elgin snow, and fuming that the supporters' bus had been cancelled only a few days before.

After such a long journey, he said he was starvin. I asked if he'd be gettin a curry in the gaff next to the ground. No. He said. I'm going to Greggs. The game went ahead, and Elgin lost with Cowden winning their first match in about six months.

Think there's something in the air up there, bunch of nut jobs.

Really? They barely get 500 at thier home games.

[PatHead]

Not wanting to get ahead of ourselves as we have to beat Elgin but notice that the draw for the next round is after the Hearts game.
