Reply With QuoteI am looking forward to the game and I reckon we will go through the tie , even if not at the first attempt. We are only two games from the quarters with a winnable game tomorrow.

Not a mention on here of tomorrow's Scottish Cup tie away to Dumbarton .
We'll be there as always but I can remember the days when there was a real buzz for a Scottish Cup tie
What's changed ?

Scottish Cup games were once the highlight of every season. Big crowds and great atmosphere were the norm.
These days attendances are often much lower than league games. Reasons might include live tv, season ticket holders having to pay at the gate, and other economic factors.
Personally I'd rather play any club thats not in our own division. Theoretically we could meet a team from our own division in each of the 3 cups including a Scottish Cup replay, play them x2 in the playoffs and 4x in the league. If say one game was to be abandoned (clutching at straws now!) then we could potentially meet a team up to 10x in one season.
I also mentioned tv live games and for me watching a game on tv where there's rows and rows of empty seats at whats supposed to a big game is another total turn off, taking away not just the atmosphere, but the real wooargh I wish I was there factor.

Excellent post Sturie mate . I also believe football crowds will continue to drop until football stadiums are made a welcoming place to be again . You just have to look at others sports just now where the crowds are on the increase and the fans are made welcome and are encouraged to enjoy themselves . You only have to watch the tennis , ice hockey and darts for an example
