From the man who says ticketing prices has no bearing on the crowd size😀Quote:

For the vast majority of the crowd it will be their first ladies game, the club are promoting it and letting everyone in for free. Hopefully a good few of the people going will go to another game this season.Quote:

If we can invest in the Ladies, both in terms of money but just as importantly in comms, then who knows all the bigger games may be of enough interest to hold them at ER and get decent crowds with that giving a boost to the lesser games wherever they end up being played in years to come.
If they can sort out the catering, they’ll make a fortune on the nightQuote:

That’s a higher attendance than the men’s teams in the top flight get, outwith the big six.
What an effort!
Surely got to be considering opening the FF lower, no reason we can’t be aiming for a 10,000 crowd at this rate!Quote:

That would be incredible, and a real watershed moment for the women’s game in Scotland.Quote:

The petty ****s will probably do the same in the reverse fixture, with the hope of beating our attendance record. Would be good for the game mind you, but I am still surprised they’re not advertising this game to their fans, given the occasion.
Hearts socials are terrible for the women tbh. Signings not announced. Almost nothing about games until game day. Not sure what the 100k a year pays for bar renting the Oriam pitches.Quote:

This way Hibs get round that and bring in lots of money from catering.
The ladies get to play in front of a large crowd and by playing at Easter Road are made to feel like part of the club.
probably be the first time some people have been able to get near to the new kiosks. Definitely a chance to make a few quidQuote:

And in a way it’s part funding the Ladies team. Wonder how it will be funded when it’s brought in under the Hibs bannerQuote:

West stand is pretty much sold out.
Yeh, after ages agreeing who in the 2 families wanted to go it now appears sold out. 🥲 Hopefully they will release more tickets as I was planning to bring 6 first time fans to Easter Road
They should open the East and push hard to fill it.Quote:

Surely they will open up other stands
It reminds me of the Sunderland documentary where they were trying to beat the record attendance. If the club work hard on this they could break 10k. Hopefully they make the effort as that would be amazing for a ladies game and probably an atmosphere that will be the best ever at a ladies league game in Scotland. Imagine a proper, full east and west stand, Sunshine on Leith after a ladies game.
