Forfar Athletic v Hibernian

Supporters Information – Update

A reminder to any Forfar Athletic supporters still requiring tickets for this Saturday’s Scottish Cup tie that they will be on sale within the 1984 Lounge at Station Park on Thursday evening from 7p.m. to 8p.m.

Sales to date have slightly exceeded expectation and thanks to all for their backing, but a few more willing to give their support to the ‘Loons’ in the tie against the Premiership outfit would not go amiss.

Looking ahead to Saturday’s fixture due to kick-off at 3p.m. at the Alpha Projects @ Station Park Stadium, club officials would urge all supporters to arrive as early as possible.

Turnstiles will open at 2p.m. prompt.

This request is especially pertinent for the large and very welcome fan base that will be following our opponents on the day.

Especially on the terracing the away support will outnumber the home support by approximately three to one as was expected and if the vast majority arrive as kick-off approaches, access in time could pose a problem.

Early arrival will also allow the away support the opportunity to funnel round in an orderly fashion should they wish to the west section of the covered enclosure that they have been allocated within the segregation arrangements.

Ample space is also available for Hibernian supporters behind the goal on the west terracing, one of the largest standing areas of it’s kind at lower league grounds.

Parking will be available to designated Hibernian supporters coaches in the old Auction Mart grounds, while limited car parking will be available in the Market Muir at the top of John Street, the East Greens Car Park just off Castle Street as well as in streets within walking distance of the ground.

Again car drivers are urged to arrive in the vicinity as early as possible and please respect local house owners drive ways etc.

Thanks to all for their anticipated co-operation.
