It will very interesting to see how many supporters attend given they have to pay this time.
£10 for adults and £5 for all concessions.
All supporters are being housed in the West Lower.
It's also on Sky so some folk might prefer to have a night in instead and watch it on the tv.Quote:

Only a couple of hundred sold I’m told. Not surprised at those prices. You can watch Chelsea women in the UWCL for £10 adult and £2 children. Scottish womens football really needs to rethink the strategy.
In fairness, it's very easy for the EPL sides to subsidise their womens teams salaries / ticket pricesQuote:

You won’t get 500 people at a tenner. Not a chance. Needs to be almost zero and make money from concession stands etc. I realise that’s difficult now as I don’t think we get the money for that anymore? Under 16s need to be free of charge.Quote:

Given the challenges of funding and lack of commitment from supporters of the woman’s game to pay a tenner to watch them, it seems likely the OF will continue to hoover up the talent and routinely take the European places.
The scores have always been like that tbh. Just that Hibs used to be one of the top dogs. I don’t think professional football for women in Scotland is sustainable at the moment. But in a recent interview i noticed Dean mentioned it was a sustainable model they had. I can only assume that’s all from sponsorship? SWPL wanted to enforce £12 a ticket for all games. The people that run the SWPL need to wake up to reality.Quote:

When I watch Hibs Women on YouTube it sounds like there are no more than 200 folk at our home games.
Of those folk at least half attendees will be family and friends of the players from both teams along with their kids so very few folk without direct connections appear to be attending.
My bro was chatting to a coach at St Johnstone, and a player as well (I think).Quote:

Surprising about the number of tickers sold. There were probs at least 1000 at ER last season for the paid game against Partick. Wonder if it being a Saturday night is an issue, given the more family-orientation the women's game has.
Ticket sales really poor for a live sky game. Not the best way to market the product and the clash with Hibs men’s game being away on same day?! Poor planning.
Is this not a capital cup clash? Doesn’t make sense.
Hibs should win this as Hearts have injuries.
Odd comment from Hibs coach saying playing at Easter Road is like a neutral venue - doesn’t make sense - plenty Hibs players played their loads.
1-0 Hibs Adams
No wonder Murray is questioning her booking, awful decision.,
They want to improve the product and image etc but at same time teams like Hibs and others probably suffer more as Rangers and Celtic spend more money than the rest - amounts Hibs and Hearts will never match. Double edged sword.Quote:

Winning the Derby will do for me tonight. :greengrinQuote:

Notley smacks the crossbar. Unlucky :agree:

1-1:rolleyes:
No doubt about the penalty. And converted.all square now.
Hearts head coach booted the ball in to the stand, should have been booked for it!
Good save from our keeper.
great save Haaland
hearts once again imo playing the better football
Take the draw but disappointing we didn’t get the win.
Not a fan of the manager
Poor game. Just like the mens game today
Yet to hear anyone say they areQuote:

I've not seen a lot of games this season but on the few occasions I have, like tonight, we've been poor.
It's not just the injuries or Gibson though. Only Parry and Lockwood of the new recruits look to be an upgrade on what we already had.
Big screens and scoreboards were off tonight and I think the same at the previous derby.Quote:
