MJC Posted August 5 Report Share Posted August 5 So a rare trip to Hampden for us, no doubt the only one for us this season. I actually think this type of game is one that will suit our ‘approach’ better and might just go in our favour. 3-2 away win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mio Posted August 5 Report Share Posted August 5 £33 for a ticket FFS. I heard Killie paid £36 at parkhead as well at the weekend. £26 for accies v Ayr as well. Scottish football is ruined. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motherwell are just as bad, it was £26 for seats in the POD for Ross County on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really poor show - nowt but greed (and basically getting us to cover the costs of renting Hampden no doubt). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s when you add the cost of taking your kid, getting a hotdog, pie etc. it’s a lot of money in this current climate. you wouldn’t mind so much if the product was good but it’s not. The standard of every side has deteriorated so much in the past 10-20yrs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye - easily north of £100 for an adult and two kids to go to Hampden for the game and get a half time snack in the game is hard to swallow. I’ve never managed to get my daughter into the Well but I sympathise with all those that do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re a team that’s set up to be the ‘underdogs’ and chase games instead of take the game to the opponents. We saw it last season with good results at Tynecastle, Dens Park, Celtic Park and Ibrox whilst losing at home to Aberdeen, St.Mirren and scraping draws against Ross County, St.Johnstone and Dundee. That’s why I have a bit of confidence that we can get some kind of positive result at Hampden on Saturday, because the onus is all on Rangers to come at us and take the game to us. If we don’t concede an early goal or two then we have a good chance here imo. As for the ticket prices, they are obscene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santheman Posted August 5 Report Share Posted August 5 I've mentally set myself a limit of what I'm prepared to pay for away games. I rarely miss a game but think I'll be taking in a lot more games at my local WOSL clubs when we're away from home. I'm sure I won't be alone.

weeyin Posted August 5 Report Share Posted August 5 Drawing with County at home, beating Rangers at Hampden and then turning in an abject performance to lose the cup game against Killie sounds like the most likely Motherwellish set of results.

Scottish football is ruined. £700 for las Vegas raiders top tier tickets(as in furthest from the field), realistically £33 is about in line with where ticket prices have been heading for 20 years, I recall Hibs being £26 a ticket eighteen years ago.

Not going to get to carried away as it's still Motherwell we're talking about obviously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaag Posted August 6 Report Share Posted August 6 Stamatelopoulos to score a Louis Moult-esque last minute screamer of a winner past Liam Kelly who gets the nod after Jack Butland trips coming off the team bus and injures himself. That’s how my dream went last night anyway. seriously though, if we are to beat rangers back to back in the league - an away game for both teams is probably the best time to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellfan Posted August 6 Report Share Posted August 6 I hope the residents of Mount Florida are preparing for the hordes of mutants about to descend upon them.

I'm not surprised. Blaney was the victim of a shocking challenge by Jordan White and Miller was targeted for special treatment and should have been taken off earlier for his own safety. Callachan?
