The second batch of balloted tickets for this fixture are currently being processed. Fans who were successful will be contacted today. These tickets must be paid for and collected by 1pm tomorrow (Saturday 30th November). Any tickets not paid for by that time will be released for general sale on Monday morning.

If you are unable to collect your tickets, please let the Club Shop know so we can reallocate your tickets.

East Kilbride Sports Club in Calderglen Country Park (G75 0QZ) is directly adjacent the K-Park and will be open from 4pm to 11pm. The EKSC offers cheap pints and basic bar snacks, and have also offered to show the game in their main hall should there be adverse weather. Please park in the overflow car park at the entrance to the country park, which is only two minutes’ walk away from the club.

Those looking for a meal may wish to try Carrigan’s Eating House (G75 0QZ) on Strathaven Road. This is a popular gastropub selling hearty pub fare. There is also a small bar area. You are advised to book ahead for a meal. Allow 10-15 minutes’ walk to reach the ground.

Alternatively, the East Kilbride Village has the Montogomery Arms and the Village Inn for pre-match pints. There are also numerous restaurants in the Village but please note there are no public transport links from there to K-Park.

Parking

Supporters can park in the Calderglen Car Park. Supporters’ buses should also park here. Should the car park be full, fans can opt to park in Colvilles Place in the Kelvin Industrial Estate (G75 0PZ). There is a path at the end of the road leading to a pedestrian crossing that takes you to the entrance of the Country Park. This option can help avoid traffic congestion in the park at full time and allow quick access to the A726 and roads home.

LIVE STREAMING

This fixture will be live on BBC Scotland, and will also be streamed live on Falkirk TV to overseas subscribers.

Please be aware that, due to the facilities at K-Park, the Falkirk TV team will be limited in terms of position. They may have to take a feed from the BBC which could lead to picture issues. The team will be using 4G/5G to broadcast, so signal may also be an issue. Please be patient if any signal related issues should arise. Thank you.

A live audio stream will be available for those in the UK for £3.

Full match reruns will be available on Falkirk TV from midnight on Saturday for £6.
