I can only see the Prem dates on the SPFL site. The regular season finishes on May 7th and it's typically the next two midweeks and weekends after that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers for that. Now you mention it, it does come hard on the heels of the league fixtures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of building our fanbase, looking long term, rewarding our current supporters after a poor season etc - very bad.Β I am only talking about Caley here but I assume that roughly applies to Falkirk as well. Spot on. Caley and Falkirk boards have obviously gone for making the most money possible out of the semi finals, and the other game sadly has a much bigger effect on income. Β I suppose in a one off opportunity (for whoever loses) to make as much as you can, itβs understandable, but still Β£38 for this in isolation seems horrendous. You would hope both clubs would allocate some of the profit to subsidising buses etc for their own fans. Β£38 for match ticket and travel is a bit more bearable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PB1994 Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 3,000 is probably about right for us. Even when we were brilliant, back in 2015, that was about what we took to Hampden. Thatβs just the standard support we have for Scottish Cup semi finals at that kick off time. It also wouldnβt surprise me if Falkirk took more that what was mentioned earlier on in this thread. After the shite theyβve been through in League 1 the last few years they probably never expected to be playing at Hampden in a semi final again, never mind one they will be thinking is extremely winnable. Plus, while the kick off time is still shite for them, itβs not exactly that much of an inconvenience to spend an hour or whatever it is getting through from Falkirk to Glasgow on a Saturday morning.Β 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Β I would imagine County would take something similar. Β Itβs a laughable kick off time, and anyone who goes should be applauded. Β Of course, the Highland teams always get last dibs on the reasonable kick off quotient. Β I have every sympathy with ICT fans, and would do if none of you bothered going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
