Onthefringes Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Obviously everyone's thoughts at this stage come from "a feeling", but with the final being the first of the 3 games I think that works in our favour and my "feeling" is that we'll win the final and then take an absolute tanking over the 2 league games. Be delighted with that tbh. I'd take that in a heartbeat... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
middleeastdave Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Was looking to see how much we will earn from the final, I suppose £250,000 for winning and £115,000 for runners up from sponsors is not too bad, but £32,000 for the TV deal sounds very cheap indeed for the cup final. I am sure non league clubs in England will get more for televising of any of their games. I know BT has probably saved the league cup in Scotland as nobody else was interested but £32,000/team for the final seams a cheap deal to me.

Ya Bezzer! Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Motherwell's best chance is me. Between Motherwell, Queens Park and Scotland I'm on a 5 game winning run at Hampden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underboyleheating Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 To have any chance of winning this final we will need to play out of our skin. This will require a 1991 Semi Final style effort, anything below that will result in a defeat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yabba's Turd Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 If we played the 91 semi again tomorrow it would end up 8 aside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaka Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 If we played the 91 semi again tomorrow it would end up 8 aside Yeah, cause Celtic would EVER get 3 guys sent off. But aye, get your point! Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellowell Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Cant believe Final just 3 weeks away and no mention of tickets yet how hard is it for the Sfa to print tickets unless they have had to redo them all as had Celtic Rangers on them lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be delighted with that tbh. I've had this discussion with a few friends, would I swap our league places in the past 10 years, splitting the old firm, best of the rest, and European qualification for silverwear when the likes of ICT, St Johnstone, St Mirren and Killie have all managed to pick up a cup? Likewise, in a heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 I'd much rather be us without a Cup in the last 10 years than St Mirren now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise, in a heartbeat. I can see your point but the number of dreadful Motherwell games I've watched in that sometimes scares me. Then I think of the number of times supporters of those other teams have had to do likewise. We may not have won a cup in that time but we've probably had more excitement and entertainment than they've had. Even looking just at strikers or attacking players, we've been spoiled. McFadden, Murphy, Porter, Higdon, McDonald, Moult, Johnson, Ainsworth, McCormack, Humphrey, Law are just some of the players we've had that could really get you off your seat. I don't think you could name a similar list for many provincial clubs, including St Johnstone who have been consistently good. No cup win, but we've had it better than most... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_P Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 I haven't been able to access the information since I saw it was posted but if it is the case that WS members or ST holders are getting up to five then a little eye raising as that initially might be I can understand why the club will have done it. For one thing it has the potential to considerably reduce the number of transactions the club have to process. I'm sure many of us will have been contacted by family and friends enquiring about getting tickets for them. If Mr Season Ticket Holder takes it upon himself to order a ticket or two for those others through his allocation then that's one person the club have to deal with over the phone or in person instead of perhaps two or three. Replicate that over a few hundred season ticket holders and that's a good chunk of time saved that will result in more people being served more quickly. It also lessens the potential for some of the "My father has travelled all the way from FarFarAwayLand and we can't get seats together......" type situations. Not quite such an issue as I expect we'll sell out anyway but initially giving a large allocation for ST or WS folks also inevitibly means any public sale will be limited reducing the chances of interlopers or perhaps day trippers who just want to be at a Final getting a sniff ahead of a 'Well fan. Sales are never going to be perfect and there will always be issues that will come but considering it from a practical level from the club's point of view I don't see it being daft or crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 It's the same situation as usual. Every 'Well fan who wants a ticket will get one. In all the years I have been going to Fir Park, I have never heard of anyone missing out on a game because they couldn't get a ticket.

grizzlyg Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 Daft question but if you have season ticket and are well society member then is it still only 5 tickets and not 10?. I hope the club have got this right. I don't want to be hearing about season ticket holders missing out on tickets. Only way that happens obviously is if we sell out 15,000 tickets which is brilliant but not if it's still the expense of a lot of season ticket holders.
