    I was thinking the very same thing, what have we to lose?

    Behind the goal is embarrassing.

    Look at other clubs that have a stand of people willing the ball into the back of the net while we have kids playing on their tablets not watching the game eating pizza.

    The atmosphere should be generated behind the goal not in a place that many in the ground can't see nor hear.
    What other clubs in our league have the main body of support behind the goals?

    Why not use the ends of the stands. That will be picked up by the TV cameras just as much and you won't have to annoy ST holders. Will the singing section be out in force they are a bit thin on the ground in the early round of the other cup, unless they are sitting somewhere away from their usual spot.

    Having been at Tiny plenty of the youngers in the 16-22 bracket don't watch much of the game either.

    I'm not dead set against there being a singing area behind the goals but I would rather the club worked out a way of doing it by incentives and also take their time. What about making sure players come to the far wins of the west stand lower to sign autographs before the game etc and then only sell kids seats for the £25 or similar in areas of the ground that typically don't get sold for the smaller matches. Over a period of time you could then start to change where the kids area is. The fans in that area have put their towel down as far as I'm concerned and other fans shouldn't get preference for an area of the ground.

    Rangers do.

    Killie now have safe standing behind their goals (though it hasn't improved atmosphere there a bit)

    What happened the last time we got an away 2-2 Scottish cup tie against a Robbie Neilson team? Coincidence? Moneyspinner.

    Should be £15 and £5 concession maximum or there'll be no danger of a decent crowd.

    Game likely to be on TV again as well is it not Think Europe games start again the week after so cant see what would stop it.
    The EFL semi-final between Villa and Leicester will be on Sky that night.

    Who covers the Scottish Cup apart from the BBC?

    Wonder what sort of crowd we’ll get for this?
    Maybe 10,000 home fans and 1,000 United
    And the usual 500 Hearts fans

    Premier Sports, they usually don't bother unless it's an Old Firm team playing

    I never thought, or knew about the "long" month re-wage payments but it is all relevant. quite a lot of games crammed together so some will be squeezed somewhat. surely the cost will be less than the first match? knock a few quid off, make sure the attendance is fairly decent Hibs? travelling fans will look closer at it, no doubt.

    Easy yin for the dot counters so far...gulp.

    I don’t think the prices were right, given it’s days from payday, after the longest pay cycle of the year.

    Just went on to get my own ticket. Didn't realise deadline was 9am today. Now £22 a ticket and a booking charge on top of that plus you cant add it to your card now. I'm not paying extra for this so giving it a miss.

    Tickets are now on sale online and via the call centre for our William Hill Scottish Cup Fourth Round replay against Dundee United at Easter Road Stadium on Tuesday 28 January.
    The Hibernian support was incredible at Tannadice Park on Sunday and we hope you can back the team again in numbers.
    Hibernian season ticket holders have until Friday 24 January at 9am to guarantee their seat and purchase their ticket at a reduced price, as well as being able to add the game to their season card at no extra cost.
    At 10am on Friday the match will go back on sale, with seat reservations removed and all tickets at available full price, with the option to add to your season card now unavailable.
    To assist as many season ticket holders as possible to obtain their own seat at the discounted price, tickets will also be available in person at the Ticket Office from Wednesday at 10am up until 6.45pm before our match against Hamilton Academical.
    The Ticket Office will then re-open again at 10am on Thursday.
    Tickets are also available to non-season ticket holders in the general sale online now and in person from Wednesday, with further allocation of seats made available after 9am on Friday, when the season ticket seat reservation option is removed.
    To assist with queues, we encourage as many supporters as possible to buy online.

    Replays are con. Absolute joke in this day and age were clubs are greeting about too many games.

    My thoughts on pricing

    £10 a ticket. Get as many bums on seats as we can.

    Hibs will charge around £20

    Stadium will be half empty. ***** atmosphere.

    Most fans will watch it on television

    💩💩💩

    Try £22. Plus £1.50 on top of that. Just look at all the unsold tickets online.

    Its not on tv though.
