Scottish Cup Quarter Final Draw - Hibs v Rangers

[flash]

Rangers have a game every midweek between now and the cup tie.

They can't afford to drop any points so will be unlikely to rest anybody important.

It's clearly a hard tie but comes at the best time possible.

[CB Hibs 68]

Based on actually being at the game , ICT are rubbish . Sevco aren’t . Poor first half and a better second.

So called hibs fan … unless you go to every game … you couldn’t touch me for being a hibs fan

Do you go to even game?Interesting point .Will always give credit to those fans that go to all the games.My issue is just because someone goes to all the matches it doesn’t mean there opinion has to be the only show in town and unquestionable .

[BurtonOnTrent]

Sunday 12.30 pm would suit me perfectly. Watch the Hibs put the gers out of the Cup, and home to celebrate, with a nice bite to eat, and a few glasses of vino. Lovely.


I can't see Viaplay going with a 12:30 kick off. Could be 14:00 based on previous years

[andrew70]

Hopefully 4pm Sunday

[Bakerman]

I can't see Viaplay going with a 12:30 kick off. Could be 14:00 based on previous years

On reflection, I think the 2 pm would be even better. Still home in plenty of time for a nice meal, and celebratory vino. Lovely.

[Potty78]

Stand out tie of the Quarters.

A tough tie but could have been worse. Full house at Easter Road, electric atmosphere, Cup history to form the narrative, Hibs underdogs so a chance to raise the game and get those disco lights on and SOL at the end.

A rip-snorter of a tie.

:flag:
No chance of a full house , too many will have an excuse 🙈 Wee day out though Mr T🍻

[darwenhibby]

It’s not The Rangers that concern me
It’s the bias corrupt officials we are also a playing against with VAR
If the Hibs turn up and are fully focused we beat them.
It’s not giving the ref and VAR the chance to give them any encouragement and dodgy decisions

[Hibeesdaft16]

With the first goal in the run being scored by a striker who was then sold and played no further part.

Great shout! Bring back King Dom :greengrin you could have backed me when the posters have been suggesting I might be of the maroon persuasion btw :greengrin:greengrin

If it's the Scottish Cup then surely as the home team we have the right to tell them to bolt with VAR as Livi and maybe others have done before?

Ahh I never knew that was a rule. Thanks.

If it was a league game we wouldnt sell out, a one off cup game is different and we'll sell it out easily.


If we don’t sell out three stands for this game I’ll be surprised

Always amazes me the wildly optimistic predictions some people envisage about us selling out certain games when history shows that there will be next to no chance of it happening. :greengrin

A lot wilo depend on performances between now and the game
if fans believe ww have a chance of winning they’ll make the effort. If not then there will be apathy
Hopefully we are on an upward trajectory
im looking forward to it albeit watching from afar

Plenty of Frasers from Dad's Army on here.

Will be a full house. Bring it on. Our record against them in the cups is decent.

[brydekirk]

You need a refill mate? Your glass is half empty there!

Rangers are beatable. We’ve improved since those games you’ve mentioned. We’ve got five games between now and then to get our new players match fit.
I’m quietly confident we can give them a fright.

👍

[Hibs4185]

Never have a better chance to beat them. New players will have settled in and we will be a relatively unknown challenge to rangers with so many changes .

Also the fact that they are playing Europe.

It’s now or never!

[He's here!]

Didn't realise he was a Jambo!

Don't know which team Frazer supported, but the late Ian Lavender (Pike) was a Villa fan and wore a scarf knitted in their colours throughout the programme.

It doesn't matter what happens between now and then, it won't sell out. The game is live on TV and season ticket holders also need to buy a ticket.

Closet previous comparison to this game as an example was when we were doing well under Hecky in 2019 and drew Celtic at home in the QF. Crowd was 15,709. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47340605

I hope there are as many there as possible and if we can get a settled team and a bit of a run before then well we will have a chance of winning.

[Hibernia&Alba]

We are at home, it’s winnable. Just be brave and focused, no silly mistakes. Rangers won’t be thinking it’s a gimme; home advantage is the key. :flag:

[Carheenlea]

Don't know which team Frazer supported, but the late Ian Lavender (Pike) was a Villa fan and wore a scarf knitted in their colours throughout the programme.

Private Frazer came from The Outer Hebrides I believe.

Probably Rangers or Celtic then.

[Hibby70]

Is it up to the home team to allow VAR? We should absolutely drop it if it is.

[gbhibby]

Fraser must have been a Queen of the South fan The Doomhammers.

[Greenio]

Is it on Hibstv do we know yet?

[Victor]

Fraser must have been a Queen of the South fan The Doomhammers.

As he was a pessimist he was most likely a Hibs fan, or at least a subscriber to Hibs.Net! Interestingly he was a member of the Edinburgh Gateway Theatre which isn’t far from the Holy Ground.

This is my fear. We can beat the Huns, but we'll struggle to beat the SFA/VAR.

Our record in the Scottish is unblemished, played 1 won 1

[cabbageandribs1875]

as we were, we can call them Huns again Orange Order leader says 'hun' is a slur despite court ruling | Glasgow Times (https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/24114632.orange-order-leader-says-hun-slur-despite-court-ruling/) and as a good proddie i agree :greengrin

THE Orange Order has accused a group of senior Scottish judges of “not taking crimes against the Protestant community” seriously after it ruled the term “hun” was not a sectarian slur.

In a ruling that clarified what was and was not offensive language, appeal judges said the expression “hun” did not contain a religious aspect or indicate malice or ill will towards Protestants.

It will be on Viaplay.

So similar to the last cup games, folk will struggle to watch it?

Reading that they sound seriously wounded. Maybe it is a sectarian slur and we should listen to them. After all, if anybody in Scotland are experts on sectarian slurs, it's them.

No surprise that a group of people whose main joy in life is parading about city centres in silly outfits have such a braindead take on the matter.

To win the cup we have to beat the "best". Done it before and can do it again.

Why do you think that would happen? It’s never happened before and it won’t now. It always takes them days to sort out the tv times. Viaplay don’t seem to be a fan of early kick offs so part of this may be them trying to sort a time that the police agree to

Unless we were plonked at 2/3pm Sunday there was never going to be a perfect kick-off time. Can't see why this is any worse than early Sunday, which is the devil of all TV times.

That kick off means 2 days off work and an overnight stay for me. Obviously designed to give Der Hunnes the maximum recovery time after their European hammering.

Quite looking forward to a 5.30 Sunday at Easter Road.

Make a bit of a day of it and still home at a decent hour. (Hopefully in time to catch the draw for semi final)

Sundays are a crap day for me but the evening is a bit easier than lunchtime.

You are never going to get a kick off that is universally popular, even Saturday at 3pm doesn't suit everyone.

[Broken Gnome]

Could be wrong, but outwith any mass paggers on Easter Road pre or post match that have passed me by, then night time games against Rangers ain't exactly carnage. They're all pished and odious obviously, but all these games are night time ones - the night time atmosphere isn't markedly different or more dangerous than the lunchtime version.

The 4,000 Rangers and Celtic fans that go to ER are their hardcore, they go everywhere, if they're convicted of a football-related offence, they won't be able to get tickets. When you think about it, apart from offensive singing, they're generally well-behaved.

Yes. Remember a game in the new West we lost 2-1 to hertz having been 1-0 up Fuller scored for them. Also remember going up to Aberdeen for a Sunday night game. We lost 1-0 Daddi (sp) scored for them. There must be more too. Maybe Don Goodman scored a peach for Motherwell Sunday night.

Seeing nothing posted anywhere else so thought I would ask, does anyone know when tickets are going on sale, been a week since date was announced and still nothing. You would have thought they would have got these out by now and pushing the sale of them for us to get as many in as possible.

[Bakerman]

I'd have preferred initially, for a brunch time kick off, around 2 or 3 pm, but that time is an exciting one for a Sunday. The place will be buzzing, after a few pre match drinks, and probably floodlit at some time. Brilliant if we win, and SOL is belted out into the night air. I'm definitely going. Cannae beat Easter Road under the floodlights, against the currants, or jam tarts. Bring it on.

If we win, we have a Hampden trip to look forward to. If we lose we eliminate the distractions of cup tournaments for a dedicated crack at breaking into the top 6.

If you are a Season Ticket holder your seats should already to reserved for you. Rather than going to buy tickets you should have a red dot in the top right hand corner if you are logged into your ticket account.

If you click on that account icon it should show that you have reserved tickets and gives you the option to add them to your basket.

Thanks for the red dot tip - didnt know that!

[Pete70]

Looks like they have done it a bit different this time regarding the ff lower. I can't purchase a seat in there until general sale, I'm torn whether to risk it or just stick to my season ticket seat.

I think you can according to this part.

"Hibernian FC Season Ticket Holders have until 5pm on Monday 26 February to make the most of the discounted pricing, and to purchase their reserved Season Ticket seat for this fixture or any other available seat in the Stadium."

[GreenCastle]

So section behind the goals in FF for singing section / Block 7 ?

[Bakerman]

£24 for season ticket holders and £26 for non is decentish.

:agree:

Should encourage a few more to get themselves along to ER, and support the club. For a quarter final SC game at home against Rangers, the pricing is very good.

They have changed it from earlier. Although now the site won't accept my cards, will do it tomorrow

Hopefully the Huns are away at Qarabag on Thursday 7th. Draw later today I think.

[flash]

Draw for Europa league about to start. Rangers away first leg please.

Yep. Ideal for us. Benfica away 3 days before playing us.

Quarabag away would have been ideal travel wise but Benfica is a very tough game we need every advantage hopefully that game takes its toll against us the hibs fans can do there bit by selling as many tickets as possible decent pricing should help ggtth :thumbsup:

Are UEFA ok with Benfica and Sporting FC both at home on the same day? Would they move one tie forward by 24 hrs or choose one to flip home/away?

Hope Rangers still have to travel on the 7th.

I believe in this scenario, the rules mean that the Sporting game would be reversed. This is because Benfica won their league last season while Sporting finished 4th.

Apparently Sporting-Atalanta will be on the Tuesday instead, works for us

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

One of the best draws possible for us. Tough away game, expect them to lose but hopefully still in the tie

[FastEddieFelson]

Todd cantwell likely to be out

[Hibees1973]

Here's hoping Benfica run The Hun ragged over there.

Nah want them to still be in the tie when they play us

Unfortunately they're playing great stuff at the moment, have to hope our new players catch them out

[Hibees1973]

The referee in this game will be vital.

Hope it's not brother Beaton or Collum (now too scared to give a key decision against The Hun).

Given a level amount of key decisions in the game and that the tie is finished on the day, we have around a 20% chance of getting through.

[Keith_M]

They totally annihilated a decent Heart side yesterday so we're gonna have to play really well to avoid a similar drubbing.

I'm not entirely confident but I'll be there regardless,

[B.H.F.C]

Not many at all shifted but the looks of it, now that all season ticket seats released.

Hopefully we get another couple of positive results leading up to it to encourage folk.

[LunasBoots]

Got mine, will no doubt regret it going on my past experiences in these games against the Huns, but think this is a pretty important game in our season so will be there with the hope we can pull something off.

When i logged into get mine at 5 there wasnt very many blue dots, just had a look again and now theres loads, wish i hadn't rushed ahead now, could of got better seats.

[Bobby's Cinema]

Probably trying to learn the lesson from releasing tickets too late on previous recent occasions.

Might not make much difference but might have been better served with the ST deadline ending Friday 5PM and enable folk to buy on payday. There are probably STH's paying full price and missing the discount because they'd rather wait till then and see.

[joe breezy]

I got mine where my season tickets are - fingers crossed

With the standard of the league this year you've got to say they are a decent side compared to the rest of us this year. Pains me to say but wish we'd have had a recent turn of results they have been on.

They were steamrollered 5-0 at the weekend. They are in utter turmoil. Naibadges is hope less. We are in the ascendency going into this. Mon Hibs.

They are hardly in turmoil, one smacking from an in form the rangers team in which any team outwith celtc would probably face against this current the rangers team, especially at ibrox

Hearts are running away with 3rd and ibrox result aside they have been on a solid run, we have picked up but we need to be on our game at the tiny stadium

Looking at the online seat map, be lucky if we've sold 3 or 4 thousand so far.

Like most teams are steamrollered at Greyskull with a little help from the beaks. They're hardly in turmoil though are they ? 9 wins out of 10 ain't bad just wish we had that sort of record going into the derby. Anyway **** the Hearts :aok:

[B.H.F.C]

Looking at the online seat map, be lucky if we've sold 3 or 4 thousand so far.

Would probably need two wins leading in to it to encourage enough folk to make it a decent crowd. Failing that, I reckon about 9-10k in our end.

People probably waiting for pay day at the end of the month. Still plenty of time before the game.

[Hibees1973]

I feel we are not going to get 4th or even 5th in the league. Games are running out and we are too inconsistent.

I reckon this game is going to define our season. There is no question we have better players now in the squad and after tonight we can look forward to this game with more optimism.

Just hope we have no injuries going into this.

Most of us now must feel we can win this one.

[GreenNWhiteArmy]

I think we've a fighting chance for 4th. Our pre split fixtures are favourable, and the clubs around us play each other

I had a dream the other night there though that we beat rangers. And if we do that, we'll go on to win the Cup imo

Beating Rangers is going to be very difficult but if we can do it we should fancy our chances against any of the other semifinalists including Celtic .

[joe breezy]

Really have to be at our best and hope they have an off day

But I’ve been at many Hibs Rangers games that we have won following Rangers being away in Europe their previous match

100%, expect they will be leggy with what will be a tough match against Benfica, probably our best chance at beating them in a while.

True but a lot of ST seats not taken in their window.

Maybe waiting to buy in groups I suppose. Let’s hope for a decent crowd.

I don’t think that’s the issue, was always going to be a poor uptake for this IMO.

Hopefully a win tomorrow to encourage folk.

There will be between 15 and 17 thousand at the game

Sounds about right. Though would give Morton the guaranteed European group stages so every cloud....

[Bakerman]

Got to think our chances of turning the currants over at our place is decent, given Motherwell can turn them over at Castle Grayskull. Here's hoping.

[Sparrows tongue]

We can definitely beat them. :thumbsup:

[B.H.F.C]

Hopefully the two results today encourage a decent uptake this week.

[Libby Hibby]

Bring on the Rangers

[Carheenlea]

Really looking forward to this now. We’re building a little momentum and have good quality amongst the side to give Rangers a good game. They’ve had the wind taken out their sails a bit and a European trip to fit in before next weekend.

Montgomery is still to have his first “big” win - next Sunday might just see that.

A hugely attractive Cup Tie that will surely see an acceleration of sales through the week.

Buying mine during next week. The pricing is good, the team are on song, and the currants showing cracks in their armour. Bring it on Yee haa.

[darwenhibby]

The stickies won’t sit in and play for a draw like Ross County did today.
It will give our attacking strength opportunities to have a go and create chances, which we must be more clinical with.
Benfica away, us away, hopefully they are still in the European tie when facing us, will give us a real chance.
Haven’t seen their team today but did they take a chance with team selection v Motherwell??

[Phil MaGlass]

Not a good uptake at the minute.

Dont understand why theres not a good uptake, Im coming from Holland for this game in the belief we will beat these ****s.

[Tambo]

A good rest for the players now while the Huns will be looking for a decent performance Thursday.

Will still be a big test but a good one for Monty.

[joe breezy]

I got tickets in my season ticket spot - I hope we can sell a load to give us a decent home support

Understand it’s on the Telly but can’t beat being there and the team need our support

Absolutely. I have a good feeling about next Sunday, and I'm never optimistic against Rangers

Looking at the map it looks like it’s starting to pick up a bit. Hopefully shift a decent amount early on in the week and the club really push it.

[Bob Box Fish]

Just bought ticket for the east . Sales picking up nicely with 7 days to go. Should be about 13k+ Hibs fans

[Col2]

No matter how well we play, no matter how poor Rangers are the match result will be defined by who is the referee and who is the VAR official.

Beaton in the VAR room today made sure Celtic would not benefit from Rangers slip up with two absolutely shocking VAR “clear and obvious” overturning decisions.

[JimBHibees]

Our recent record against them in cups is 3-2 win in a final and a 3-1 win in a semi final so can't see anything other than a 3-0 win to us in the quarter final. 😀

[SHODAN]

Our last home win v Rangers was 3-2 in the dress rehearsal for the 2016 final. Since then our results have been: 1-2, 5-5, 0-0, 1-1, 0-3, 2-2, 0-1, 0-1, 2-2, 1-4, 1-3, 0-3. It's the longest run without a home win v them in our history.

It has to be won on the day so a draw and win on penalties could happen.
