This wee video shows us a rare and magnificent view of a full East End Park from the perspective of a Hibs fan in the away end on Saturday.
It is a tantalising prospect that if we were to settle and do well in the Premier, the ground could look like that most weeks.

TBH - I was a bit disappointed with empty seats in the Norrie. We couldn’t have sold many more than 5,000 tickets.
I still remember home end turnouts of 11-12000 for games against Meadowbank and Clyde in the grand old days of Leish.

In fairness, a lot of folk haven`t been paid since Christmas, and the game was live on BBC.
3 stands sold out completely, with a smattering of seats left in the NMc? Cannae grumble at that.

These days are unlikely to return, Dunpar. For one thing, football is much more expensive now and as pointed out above, the game was live on the BBC and at inconvenient time for any fans who travel a fair distance.Given the circumstances, it was an excellent turn out and Hibs fans certainly played their part by turning out in impressive numbers.
Not your average Sunday League player.

I`m sure I seen Hibs had 4300 tickets so best part of 6k in the home end. None too shabby.

Attendance 10,350, Hibs sold 4,300. You`re correct we didn`t sell more than 5,000. We sold more than 6,000.

We filled 3/4 of the main stand, the whole NW and 8/10ths of the Norrie. Thats great support when there is no season tickets valid and the game on TV at 12.30.

While it was disappointing to see some empty seats in the Norrie, this game bucked the trend with the large attendance. Home support in other cup ties was below or well below a normal league game.
Also, don`t forget the Pars fans who watched the game overseas on PARStv :-)

Was there as much infitration by Hibs` fans into traditional Pars` sections as was anticipated? Maybe they were subdued by their team`s performance but there didn`t seem to be that much evidence of it.
