1872 Cup date confirmed

The Warriors rescheduled 1872 Cup final with Edinburgh Rugby at Scotstoun Stadium has been confirmed for Saturday 26 April at 7.05pm live on BBC ALBA.

The original fixture was postponed on New Year’s Day because of a waterlogged pitch at Scotstoun.

The Warriors are hoping for a record crowd for a game in Glasgow, having increased the capacity of Scotstoun to around 10,000. The current record is 8,852, which was set when the two teams faced each other at Firhill on 1 January 2012.

The Warriors lead Edinburgh 20-16 after the first leg at Murrayfield on Boxing Day.

Tickets purchased for the original fixture on New Year’s Day are still valid, although tickets purchased in the east and west stands will be automatically re-issued as new stands will be in place for this game.
