    Hibs v Spartans or Berwick Rangers on SKY - Sunday 8th March, 12.45pm

    According to a Kirkcaldy Journalist, the ICT v Raith game will be the only non-televised quarter final tie.

    Wonder what slot we'll get.

    I'm happy with that if true as I will be in Skegness for the weekend

    Will hurt the gate but probably the right selection, especially if Spartans get through. Either way though, our opposition will deserve a bit of recognition for having reached the quarter finals.

    Sunday early kick off. Affects the attendance and the pay day for the smaller.clubs People will be put off going because it's early and on TV. Should be 3pm on the Saturday.

    If its berwick we play they are lucky the first two trains on a Sunday get in just before and just after 12. No much of a day out.

    Yes this is completely unfair on the Falkirk fans.

    Our game would have made more sense as the Friday night game - less travelling involved for supporters

    I'm sure Berwick/Spartans will be happy to recieve money for a live tv game as well as half the gates of a 10,000 plus crowd. Make it £15 & £5 (which no matter the opponent is good for a quarter final tie) and we should still see a good crowd.

    Im not convinced we will see more than 10,000 at the game.

    If the SFA had any sense, they would do the draw before the Celtic game. So it will be 3pm on a Tuesday

    There will certainly be over 10k plus both clubs will share £170k or so from Sky. Good pay day for both clubs.

    Just slightly shy or the £10M per game they'll be getting down south next season.

    It's great for me. It's my mum's 85th birthday on Saturday the 7th. I wasn't looking forward to telling my sisters I was missing the birthday tea they've arranged. Thank you Sky!

    I fancied a decent crowd for this, but now I don`t think so. A lot of the folks that might have been tempted to get along to this will just settle for the telly on a Sunday lunchtime. The split of £170,000 will soften the blow of a depleted crowd, but this is is just another kick in the teeth for the regular supporters.

    Ask the Berwick board of directors or the Raith Rovers equivalent who has the better deal.

    If it's Berwick they get £85,000 TV money and a split of the gate.

    Raith will get a share of a 3000ish gate.

    Was just talking to someone from Raith. They say it will cost them a fortune, "glory of the cup, my arse" was the phrase.

    They are looking into getting a train put on. Remember those football specials?

    Hibs should announce now ticket stubs for quarters and semis will be used in the distribution of Cup final tickets if we get there. We need to find away of ensuring fans that attend games get tickets after ST holders

    It doesn't make it any less important, but the magic of the cup at a sunday lunchtime? It's just not the same. Should be used to it by now

    that is terrible, dire in fact. it will definitely curb the attendance. I am puzzled why the d.utd v celtic game is on at the later time., plenty of time for the buckfast to kick in I suppose, and celtic will have voracious backing in a hard game.
