    Full house for the Derby

    Really dreading the upcoming Derby not only will we get humped but we will get humped in front of probably the smallest Edinburgh Derby crowd in living memory.

    As a ST holder I wouldn't mind if Rod gave the remaining tickets away for free to Hibs supporters who are on the data base.

    Get a few old bums back on their old seats again.

    No way will it be the smallest in living memory, one when the main stand was being rebuilt was around 8500 and the one when the east was being rebuilt was small as well. Both were well short of the reduced capacity.

    This obsession with attendances was started by the ****s.

    Most of us never caught on but it's clear that a few of us fell for it!!

    For gods sake...there's no way in hell the crowd will end up anywhere near that ratio.

    Typical East Lothian posters start a fight in an empty house.

    Happy new year to you both when it comes.

    Bigger crowd the better. The singing section is nearly sold out so at least there will be one hell of an atmosphere!

    People who are a bit fed up and are not willing to pay money to go, fair enough. Those who appear to have given up or say "i'm not going back until they go" are not true fans imo.

    It might not be the lowest Derby crowd but it will be the most under capacity Derby crowd at ER for a long time, especially for a New Year Derby.

    The away end is NOT sold out either. The deadline for away fans to buy tickets was 4pm yesterday so they are no longer available.

    I'm a bigger fan than you, I'm much older so it means I have put more money into the club over the years.

    Thats a fair point, I wish the internet was such a big thing when I was an uberfan, my self indulgence would have been nauseating!

    Up where I sit there are normally rows and rows free. I couldn't get a ticket for a mate anywhere near me so I think the crowd will be okay.

    My mate is coming up from Somerset too. I was thinking the same thing, glutton for punishment. Ha ha

    I still have a sneaky feeling we'll win though. God knows why.

    That's the most encouraging post I've read for days.

    I'm at work so not got the time.

    You could go on to the Hibs website and check the seating plan as if you were going to purchase a ticket, if you can be bothered count the number of seats available and take that away from the capacity of the stadium.

    We may well lose ,but it won't be the smallest crowd in living memory. The 6-2 game had around 12,000 people through the turnstiles.

    Outnumbered?. So, we will have less than 3,500 supporters.

    Be full of doom & gloom if you wish, but don't talk pish.
