    Just burst into tears reading this thread. This is what being a Hibby is all about. I hope you all get tickets for the match, you all deserve it with all the money and travelling you will be doing.

    Oxford-London Euston-Glasgow Central. About a 900 mile round trip, but that's nothing compared to some.
    Will be something similar or Oxford - London - Edinburgh (For pre match atmosphere) - Glasgow - Edinburgh (To join in the celebrations)

    Fair play to all the guys comming from the four corners. I can see them having to show this one on big screens at ER and Tynie due to all the home commers.
    I almost feel ashamed at only comming from Renfrew. Just a quick 10 minute drive through Glasgows south side and then a short walk to Hampden from Queens Park. Though for atmostphere getting the train From Paisley into Central station and onward to Kings Park/Mount Florida might be my prefered option.

    Will be travelling from Edinburgh on the way back down - probably as late as possible on the Sunday as I've eff all holiday days left.

    I'm aware this is massively tempting fate, but if - and only if - we win, I assume the parade on the Sunday will be around 3pm ish?

    Any of you London/Midland types travelling on the 06:05 from Euston on the Saturday morning? Sure a few of us Lancs Hibs will be getting that service (already booked two of us to get on at Wigan).

    I'm coming up from Southern England to the game, Problem I have is I join a new ship on Sunday. As we will win, not sure if I'm going to make my date to join the ship so this will mean after 20 years clean record i'll be officially AWOL. Which means possibly a reduction in rank and a 28 day (minimum) Holiday in Colchester Military Prison. All I ask is the players put in 100% effort and the 28 days will sail by. GGTTH

    Was more thinking of the 07.30 Euston train, but if a) the KO time changes - which is f******* well shouldn't but might - and b) there's more of a Hibs presence on the 06.05 one, I might get the old red eye 06.05 service.

    Would certainly be on the Sunday would imagine earlier than 3pm though maybe more like 1pm. Of course you could always go to that whoever wins.

    Errrrr, think I'll pass on your kind offer!!!. So the 6pm choo choo back down the road would not mean me rushing away and missing any part of the main parade - good, my travel arrangements will be sorted out instanter.

    Kick off time won't change. Was maybe 30+ Hibs fans on Saturday on that train on Saturday although obviously that may change with people going for the weekend etc for the final.

    Flying in from Boston USA to London to Edinburgh

    Just thought what will the trains through to Glasgow be like on morning of Final ....will the police make any efforts to seperate fans travelling through as it does have a recipe for trouble otherwise??

    Also when reaching Glasgow ...the norm is train to Mount Florida ( but that being the traditional Huns end ...it will be awash with ****bos ) .....train to Kings Park for our end ...though I think it is a bit of a longer walk to stadium than Mount Florida

    Me plus two from deepest Surrey, not sure whether to drive or get the plane yet, but have booked the Friday and the entire week afterwards off work.

    Alcohol IS the answer, but I forget the question...

    If I can get a ticket or two then no stopping me. One ticket for moi and the other ticket for my glory hunting brother who only attends finals.

    Travelling from Edinburgh. Maybe get myself one of those panda suits for the occasion.

    If I get a Cheltenham to New st train, there's bound to be a conncetion from brum to one of these before Lancaster at least, would have thought Stafford or Preston would have been the most likely, will be looking into it just keeping the fingers crossed for the ticket now.

    Glad I'm not the only one, my emotions are definitely getting the better of me as I start bubbling at the drop of a green and white hat right now. Tears after the first goal, greetin' my eyes out at the second which carried on right through the final whistle then away again yesterday when Dad texted me to tell me it was an all Edinburgh, German Passport Control actually took me to one side to find out what I was all about .............. Unbelievably a Frankfurt supporter who had been looking out for results due to Pa Kujabi!

    Can't wait to be arm in arm with my Dad as, the Legend that he certainly will become, James McPake finally lifts the trophy aloft.
