    Playoff first leg tickets

    What;'re the chances of getting one ticket for these over the internet, assuming I'm logged on and ready to purchase when they go on sale?

    Given the tasks involved in getting there for myself (bus from Dundee to Edinburgh for the ticket on the Wednesday, train from Edinburgh to the game, then either staying at relatives or getting the last train back to Dundee depending on the opposition) the plan is to buy transport immediately on knowing of our opponents, then buying tickets tomorrow. However, I don't want to miss out on a ticket and be £20 worse off on useless transport.

    I think most people who want a ticket will be ok.

    We have 8000 odd ST holders. You can probably knock a fair few off who can't attend due to work, holiday and other commitments and a few who just don't want to go or don't fancy rushing about on a Wednesday night.

    I reckon we will shift the 2000 tickets but there won't be too many disappointed.

    I've now doomed myself to missing out tomorrow morning and looking a right mug.

    I'm actually in Hamilton tonight leaving pretty early in the morning and heading towards the tickets office before heading to work, should Hamilton win today you think I'd have a better chance just heading to Hamilton ticket office and getting a ticket in their end?

    I'm gonna try and buy a ticket for the Falkirk or Hamilton end the night as a kind of insurance policy for if I miss out on one tomorrow.

    Not that I would profess to know better about the chances of tickets or the issues with transport, but would you not be better waiting 24hrs till after getting a match ticket before arranging transport? I shouldn't think you'd miss out on train tickets by waiting.

    Opens at 10.

    I'm planning on heading down about 8ish.

    Be making sure I have a decent coffee and a sausage roll whilst I'm waiting.

    I think the tickets will go fast, I've had mates who I've not spoken too in donkeys calling asking to use my season ticket to get an away ticket.

    I wonder what they will charge.

    Standard entry has been £16 at New Douglas this season, wondsr if they will bump it up for this game.

    So am I right in saying that Hibs are charging £10 for tickets for the 2nd leg but Hamilton are charging £16 for the 1st leg?

    Yes. I think that's ok to be honest. Hibs put prices down to get a full house and Hamilton will get a full house anyway. Both legs on TV so a big crowd is a must.

    I didn't know the first leg was on the telly actually. Yeh, I agree with you about that. Actually if they wern't playing us I'd have a lot of respect for Hamilton. They have always used a lot of players who have come up through their youth scheme and always work within their means. Still hope we beat them obviously.

    I noticed that the crowd today was 4600. Could Hibs get more tickets, or are the stands not set up for that sort of segregation? I haven't been to Douglas Park since before it was new!

    I'm going to try and buy a ticket using my iPhone while at work.

    I can log into the site but from experience has anyone else had a problem booking with their phone. It's away leg so don't have to view any stadium plan I presume.
