Why such a small allocation? Surely they'd want loads of us up there? For financial reasons etc

Not really. They can sell out to their own fans and it might even encourage a few to attend again when the likes of Ross County visit. We represent a pie and a pint, once in our lifetime.

Away is Weds 23rd, 5.45pm kick off.
Home is Thurs 31st at 8pm.
Oh how come it's been moved to  Wednesday? And why the hell 5.45 pm. How many Hibs fans won't be able to go now owing to not being able to knock off early?
They're all unemployed up there so KO time won't be an issue

What a pathetic allocation that is, Hibs had that many in Switzerland last night.
My guess is Villa took the minimum to avoid having to having to  extra staff up there to dish the tickets out on Weds.
Sod the fans as usual and any plans we had made to get there.

Don’t think that will be anything like the case….they will fill the ground with their fans so that will be the allocation we are given

Is the away leg on TV anywhere?

Is my question as well!
Their home leg was on BBC Scotland then at kick off it was available here on iPlayer.

TNT, the channel formerly known as BT Sport will be showing it. There maybe others.

Just taken a look at a couple of their forums

1. They are not happy about the kick off time, unsurprisingly

2. The general thought is that it'll be a matter of their keeping the score down, although the Newcastle result has buoyed them a little

You would have thought so that people of a third world occupied colonial country would show a little bit less arrogance and be more compliant :D

I guess so I suppose, but I’m of a mindset lately where I have a very low opinion and lack of trust when it comes to anything our club does for fans. I have probably jumped to the wrong conclusion, we’ll see. But can you ever seeing us taking a larger allocation in Europe if it’s on offer when there’s no financial gain to the club to do so, just the inconvenience of handling it all?

Somebody should point them towards our recent cup record againt supposedly lesser teams. I'll be happy at this stage if we scrape through on away goals.

The away goals rule was scrapped a couple of years ago.
