Will game be on?

Will game be on?

About two inches outside my front door now. I live 100 yards fae The Recs.

No idea about the ground TBH. With what has happened elsewhere recently... But I'll say this: Alloa invested in a top-quality artificial surface, it's up to a certain UEFA standard and was equivalent to that used in the Russian top flight.

Whether the Hawaii 5-0 will say game on is another matter.

Mecca, do you know if there is parking for disabled fans at the ground?

What Colin_DUFC said :-)

Ground is 5-10 mins walk from boozers. The ones in town, from closest:

The Thistle - Closest to ground. Won't have food on as the cook is ill. Has a lounge and has a guid bar. Not huge but not wee either. Think The Balmore... 5-7 mins fae ground
The Old Brewery - Big Belhaven pub. Big TV wide range of booze. Does food 6-8 mins fae ground
Crams - Guid, tiny pub. On Candleriggs. 8 mins tae ground
The Bobbing John - Huge Wetherspoons boozer. It does have Sky, maybe not Sports, but the TV is a tiny wee thing. Does food.6-8 mins fae ground
The Star - Guid boozer in town centre. Right next door to the Bobbing John. 6-8 mins fae ground
The Station - Soulless pub on Primrose Street 6-8 mins fae ground
Peppes - Celtic-minded pub in town. Opposite town hall. It's a dive but if ye need to wet the whistle... 8-10 mins fae ground
The Royal Oak - Guid pub, attached to a hotel. A bit wee and furthest away from the ground. Maybe as a last resort, but it has a pool table and a good vibe. 10-12 mins fae ground

Hiya TTT. The ground has a car park next to the main stand. It is for officials, I think but there might be blue badge spaces. Give the club a call in the morning to confirm 01259 219596. The AAFC chairman sold the former stadium car park to Lidl for a new supermarket...

There are restrictions to parking on matchday in nearby streets - including my own! - but TBH I don't know how they can enforce it.

Alternatively, there is a business park on Bruce Street. That's the street just past the stadium as you drive into town from the east. They usually have a bouncer on the gate, but might let a blue badger park.

There is a retail park before the stadium with a Morrisons car park, I'm sure you could park there - it's a 3-5 min walk from the ground.

Hope this helps mate - got a bit of blue badge parking experience myself ;-)

Who is going, have heard some people say they aren't up for it like normally would be

Ffs its a big cup away day, United have an amazing tradition with this Cup, in recent decades the amount of semi finals and finals will not have been beaten by many, our support away from home in this competition in terms of numbers and atmosphere stands out big time over most of our peers

[TerryTheTerror]

I'm going plus 4 in the car.

Having had 1200+ at Falkirk and 1400+ at Dunfermline (despite the 6-1) I'd be disappointed if we didn't have similar or more tomorrow
