So what the fuck is this place all about ? Anyone know anything that will assist the quest for drunkenness and Scottish Cup glory ?

 

From this link it looks like a tricky one.

Capacity:3100 so we are not going to get much more than about 1000 tickets ? (Where's that panic button)

Nearest trainstation: Stirling

Pubs near ground:5-10 minutes away possibly

 

Do they still have an artificial surface ?

 

Why the fuck could Raith not have won on Tuesday night

Dunno about that mate, looks a daunting prospect!

You must have got the last standing ticket then. When I phoned 10 mins ago they only had seating so I left it. Does anyone know how hard/easy it is to enter the ground with a seating ticket but just stand on the terracing?

I was thinking of doing the same, I kinda assumed it would just be seated tickets that were left. Canny imagine the segregation being too tough.

Strangely I went into google images and typed 'football terrace' to get a generic image of one to get the blood flowing and it wasn't until later I realised it was actually Recreation Park. Covered terrace is even better, lots of noise. Although I don't remember much noise at Arbroath a few years back, maybe my ears were blocked with ice and my eyes with smoke from the Cemaphor Reds.

Thats the spirit

mind you the most the support will have been drinking since early doors on sat as opposed to the rather sober support down at Somerset Park

A pub inside a sports complex sounds like a bad mix with pissed up Dons fans.

 

In response to a similar post from me

 

No, the bar is pretty much separated from the rest of the place, and the bar staff are well used to a few rowdy football supporters.

 

There are also a few pubs in the town centre if you like a bit of adventure, a few "characters" and a laugh. Locker Room, Prim, Station and Star are all within 2 minutes of each other. Avoid the Vennel.

The weather is to be fucking awful on Saturday folks.

no wasn't there

I do remember Falkirk at Ochilview however

3rd round of the cup used to be an opportunity to have a great day out at a shitty ground. Remember some great days out at Firhill and Muirton.
