...than the Jambos did for their recent League Cup Final v St Mirren.

There will be a few size queens looking nervously at their tackle in the Wheatfield Stand urinals (and no doubt that of their compadres) following this news.

Approx 26k so the OP is getting a little ahead of himself.

However, we have still sold more than them and will probably end up with 4-5k more there than hearts did.

It's only the diddy cup though...😉

We have already 'sold out' what would be a normal ticket allocation for a cup final ..... half the capacity of Hampden minus seats reserved for corporate is 25,000 and we are way past that. The only possibility of a gap in our end will be caused by the SPFL not releasing the last 2 blocks in the East stand in order to force Hibs to sell tickets in the West stand.

The OP was an expression of wonder that with still 3 and a half days left to go a wee club like us have already sold more tickets for a League Cup final than one of the giants of world football with a huge fan base could manage only 3 years ago. A wonder I happen to share, I can only imagine a lot of their fans had been invited to a convention on the future of European football that day, which obviously would have been meaningless without them.

Just cos you're an inbred, doesn't mean you've can't be a Rover-driving stay press sort of guy.

Correct, 26,000 + 15,000 + 2,000 = 400,000 in any yam calculator I've used.

Normal ticket allocation is 21k-22k for 50-50 split at hampden with sometimes extra available depending on debentures etc. So we are about 7k over normal cup final ticket sales

Entire upper tier of our West stand unopened for their ICT semi in 2013.

Entire South stand upper tier unopened in their ICT semi in 2014.

Both semis at ER they made endless comments about how they sold out the East stand.

Complete roasters.
