I remember when we beat Montrose 9-0 in the CIS back in 2003. Dobbie scored before I had even taken my seat

I'm really surprised at the cost of watching third division football.
For example, £10 to watch Albion Rovers v Montrose makes Hibs prices look like a steal!

Theres a pretty high chance that Edinburh City don't charge that price week in week out. The SFA set minimum prices for the Scottish Cup. No idea why, probably to ensure a decent split of the gate for each team. Originally Posted by Hibbyradge

So in other words whoever we get, we can expect to cruise through 1-0 at ER. Originally Posted by Hibbyradge

Overconfidence might be a problem, if we fall into the trap of imagining that we still have that sort of striking ability at the club, er, I mean, at the football club. Originally Posted by shamo9

That was the big cup in about 1975 - I think some guy called Les Barr scored from the halfway line over Jim McArthur's head. Originally Posted by greenlex

£10.......no chance I'll be going to watch that standard at that price.
if it had been realistic, I would definitely have gone along with kid but no danger now.

Hibs website states it was the League Cup on 24-09-1975 losing 3-1 at home - our only loss to them. Originally Posted by Hiber-nation

The only Scottish Cup game was on 28th January 1995, winning two nil away in Montrose.

You're really tempting me to get along to a frozen Meadowbank on Wednesday to take in that classic in the making. Originally Posted by Hibbyradge

Can I pay the £10 to my local jakey then go back indoors instead?

I'm sure this was a two legged affair - we won 1-0 at home then lost 3-1 away. If i'm right i perhaps need to get out more... Originally Posted by sunshine1875

If I recall correctly we had the same UEFA cup results against Liverpool in the succeeding weeks so at that time Montrose were as good as Liverpool. Originally Posted by deek68

I'll be going along. As a lad says earlier seems there are a few Hibbies in the City team so it'd be good to see their reaction if they managed to win the game. What a feeling that would be knowing you were going to to play at ER in the Scottish Cup.

To be fair, Jim was distracted as he was working on his pie selling sideline at the time, and was furnishing members of the crowd behind the goal with the said refreshments at a very reasonable price when Barr spotted his chance and smashed it goalwards. Originally Posted by Hiber-nation

He would have still got to it had the fan he was serving not given him a load a of pennies which he obviously had to count before running back to his goalmouth.
It may have put out us out of the League Cup but the silver lining is that it allowed Jim to hone those frugal attitudes and business skills that would lead to the destabilisation and break-up of a promising young Hibs side many years later.
Way to go Jim!

I might go along and see the game. However, I am not sure it will go ahead.
