So where do you want our 'big day oot' to be?

I reckon dons could muster 25,000 and we'll be between 8-15,000. However county did take 19,000 to Hampden four years ago so you never know.

Also county v dundee utd had attendance of 47,000. Hertz and midden 44,000 last year. I think its fair to say this game will be around the 40k mark also. Therefore i would choose Ibrox as it has capacity of 50,000 and a potential 45,000 crowd will make it full. Celtic park is to big for this fixture imo!

Then again we could always just have it at Mosset park Forres ;)

The Oracle (MFR) said Celtic Park.

A pal of mine said yesterday MFR claimed it was to be Celtic Park.

Probably think we're in the Scottish Cup final lol.

It's confirmed as parkhead

STV stating Parkhead?

Stv saying they believe it's Celtic Park so are the twitter journalists. No confirmation tho...

It's confirmed as parkhead

Said that hours ago.

It had to be Parkhead because nobody knows who owns Ibrox!

Not true.John Brown does.

"Celtic Park will host the 2014 Scottish League Cup final between Aberdeen and Inverness Caledonian Thistle. STV understands the Glasgow venue has been chosen by the Scottish Professional Football League to host the fixture, with Hampden Park out of use due to the forthcoming Commonwealth Games."

What else could we expect from the SPFL, the scummy east end of Glasgow of course.

Calling Dougal - Caley winning their first major cup final at Paradise - IHE celebrating in the Jungle - Is that feckin destiny or wot ?

Celtic Park, the home of the SFA/SPFL what else should we expect!

 

I'm sure they'll choose Ibrox. After all, it is overdue a game between two top flight teams.

I think ibrox will be the chosen venue as well. As much as I detest the Orcs I think it would generate a better atmosphere as the piggery is too big and it won't sell out

I reckon we will see 30k Dons fans and possibly 6-7k of our fans which is not anywhere capacity but it would look better in Ibrox

Anyway it should keep the likes of Fraz happy

Dougal

 

 

If reports are correct then it it seems I will be left dejected. 

 

WATP

Premier Inn at Cambuslang - £29.00 a room just now.

Is the KO time already agreed?

I really hope it's an early kickoff, any word on this?

the final is normally 3 pm

Well, that's my flights booked!  Hope they don't change it from Glasgow now!

 

Mine too! Back to Gatwick

All I hope is that we win.

 

We have to score first and contain both Hayes and Rooney..Rooney surprised me with his contribution and goal--a very nice one Cyril.

Bad news, the SFA has just confirmed that Willie Miller, will be the Cup Final Referee, with the game starting at 3 pm . Neil Doncaster has been quoted as saying this was to boost the Television audience and was not a further attempt to re-inforce post-Culloden controls over the Highlanders following the injustice meted out to their supporters attending Easter Road after a 7 am start. CJT are apparently appealing the appointment with Sky TV suggesting the referee should be Andy Walker to boost Celtic supporters attending as neutrals.

 

On a brighter note, Hanna-Barbera Corporation is believed to be considering a late bid to sponsor the final after they discovered that Yogi would be there supported by the Little Magician. Aberdeen Reds based in and around Inverness will, we understand, be seeking to upstage this by all dressing in Batman and Robin costumes to highlight, once again, their achievements in Gothenburg City. 

 

Well, that's my flights booked!  Hope they don't change it from Glasgow now!

 

Mine too! Back to Gatwick

 

 

Gonna book flights today. What flight are you on Eagle4Caley?

Confirmed as Celtic Park

Why does it kick off at 14:30?

What a complete joke! Parkhead is tin point stadium in an apache area. Lets be honest here the attendance will be 40k tops. 20k empty seats aye? And no doubt we'll get stuck behind the pillars. Raging!!! Doncaster n co really are clowns. Lawell must be pissing himself again!
