Dunfermline vs Greenock Morton - Sat 20th Jan

[Paisley Ton]

Dunfermline FC ticketing site shows Away £18 and cons £12 ( note 60 YO are cons at Eastend Park )

Is there special cup pricing for this one?  Thought as both championship sides, normal pricing would apply.  

An old chestnut does your undersoil heating still work and what's the ground update with all this snow?

Away support may find parking on the north side of the cemetery and then walking through the cemetery the simplest solution with the fastest get away.

Alternatively, you may wish to park in the town centre, which has plenty of car parks and within 10-15 minutes walking distance of the ground.

 

 

Disappointed that the NW won't be open for this. On the other hand, £15 and £10 is pretty reasonable. 

It'll be interesting to see the official match attendance, since we've been including every ST holder in the league match attendances.

What benefit is counting all season tickets? It's just posturing crowd w**k nonsense right,?

[Fungi]

Never confident against Morton. USH works yes, was under about 1.5inch of snow on Instagram yesterday. Sunny here in Edin now though reckon it'll be fine.

I'm sure the justification was you can get more money from sponsors or something

[DA Baracus]

Snow?! Pffft! Didn't stop the teams in 2000;

 

[smpar]

Snow hasn't disappeared at all from my street, <2miles from EEP.

Pretty much. Something to do with 'most' clubs doing the same so it puts us at a disadvantage when data is collected etc.

[P475]

Then there was this cold night at East End Park 

morton fans beware Pars have form for digging out results in the cold.

To be honest, I don’t blame clubs for doing it.

I’ve always thought Morton do the opposite and understate their crowds,  and would assume clubs that do that do it for tax purposes, but for clubs overstating crowds, is it that difficult to tell the Revenue they gave out x free tickets?

Surely with (in theory) higher gates, this then allows them to charge more for trackside advertising etc.

I’m sure with the gate being split it’ll be down dramatically from the 4816 midweek attendance though, in spite of the crowd not being noticeably different. Ross County in particular used to have form for that when we played multiple Cup ties up there 8-10 years ago.

Anyway, away form’s decent so I expect an improved performance and a 0-0 or 1-1 draw, followed by a turgid 0-1 replay defeat at Cappielow.

That was certainly part of the justification and not just a Falkirk-inspired hissy fit. Instead of reporting the real figures through the turnstiles we can say "we are the 8th (or whatever) best supported team in the country".

I'm told the ground at EEP isn't frozen so the game should go ahead unless the weather worsens. 

I see that those idiot admin on dafc.net won't allow anyone to speculate about the weather/game on Saturday. That lot need to get a freakin life.  

[Stellaboz]

Imagine that, dot net censoring debate? Enjoy chatting freely on here or The Pars Club forum, away from that abomination

[Shandon Par]

Will be in London Saturday so missing this (total part-timer at the moment) but have a good feeling. Happens every Thursday. Think this new more cage formation is well suited to cup games.  

[purplemonkeydishwasher]

We’ll get pumped. We’re stinking atm.

Absolutely pathetic as usual from the morons on there. Why do you even go on to it?

Have decided to go to this one and incredibly it’s my first visit to EEP since we got kicked all over the park in 1996 with Andre Boe in goal.

Am quite up for this so naturally it’ll be postponed.

[Poet of the Macabre]

Don't understand why people still use .net? Under the previous regime, the club had a member of staff who snooped the website and reported any "unwelcome" posts/topics. That's when everyone's favourite admin would get a call.

Unsure about Saturday's game. £15 isn't too bad but it's still going to be freezing and I feel a draw is almost written in the stars. I do love the Scottish Cup, so that might entice me along.

And our .org is full of total gub shites

[madton]

I can't see us getting pumped. We have the best defence in the league but love to concede a goal or so a game. so we will need to score to get at least a reply.

It really depends if we can convert the chances we create, which up until now we haven't. We should have scored 5/6 against ICT a few weeks ago in the first half for example but had to rely on a pen to win that game.

Against Brechin,  17 or so efforts, 1 goal.

Even against Falkirk last week, we were pish but had 3/4 good chances cleared off the line which we should have buried.

Hopefully Jai is back and Ross from Aberdeen gets a run out to show what he can do.

Lucky if we have 3-400 travelling.

2-1 Pars.
