    If we get Celtic..

    ..I sincerely hope we don't let them/the SFA bully us into accepting less than 50% of the total allocation.

    As for today's game? No comment.

    The gate will be split 50/50 if it's Celtic.

    There's no danger that we won't shift 25,000 tickets for the final.

    I can see Celtic, and other big club's, point of view which is that they have 50-60,000 fans going to see them every other week whereas we've been struggling to get 10,000 through the gates all season and yet we expect an extra 15,000 tickets for the final.

    However, it is a final and I think a 50/50 split is the way to do it, provided that the other team is capable of taking 50% of the capacity to the game.

    They've only been getting crowds of 25-30k so screw them.

    Said in the paper today that the team with the highest ticket sales for the semis was Hibs

    We won't get anything like 25k. Will be pushing it to even get 20k.

    It'll be the same as 2001, I'd've thought. Think we got 21K then?

    Anyway, it'll be DUFC. Then we can bully them about cutting their allocation!

    True.

    Forgot about all the corporate tickets that will be getting sold for the final to people that have never been to a football game in their life!

    Think we'll still be looking at both teams getting about 22,000 though.

    You've not seen Parkhead this season, have you?

    OK, perhaps the 50-60,000 comment was a bit wide of the mark but they're still getting at least 30,000 at most home games, which is more than they'll get for the final, if they make it.
