If ever The Rose needed any further motivation to do well against Hibs, this would be it. Especially for those several players in their team who support Hearts. If any such nonsense does happen, make sure it's after the game and we've won.
I remember not so long ago Auchinleck Talbot were robbed in a cup tie at Tynecastle.

Don't think there's much they can do either if / when we produce the silverware on their halowed rotten turf 😆

The Rose beat Dumbarton away in the last round. Dumbarton - a team which defeated Hibs not so long ago, and beat Dundee United only last week.

We should bring it out with ten minutes to go. Failing that, do the half time draw (if there is one) out of the cup with Scott Wilson choking on his mince, as he announces the winner.

they'll be as motivated as they can be for this game.
If anything sight of the cup would be a reward for the achievement of them getting this far.
Perfectly acceptable.
If this was a home tie, we'd surely bring it out, no?

But seriously, I honestly don't know what previous years cup winners have done, if anything?

Why shouldn't we show it off? Let's enjoy the fact we are the holders.

We've been enjoying the fact that we are holders since 21/05/2016. It's now time to concentrate on the defence of our trophy IMO.
What do you mean "it would be a reminder that we are the cup holders"? Seriously? Does any Hibs player need a reminder? Or any further motivation?
My point is not to give our opponents any further motivation.

This is a cup tie against a local team with nothing to lose and everything to gain. Hibs shouldn't give any additional motivation to any opponents. Be professional, respect your opponents (but not too much) then go out and destroy them.

Would it be any different to league champions unfurling the flag at their first home game of the season?
It's our first Scottish cup tie since we won it. Why not milk it as much as possible. Nobody alive has seen Hibs play a tie as holders of this competition so get the cup out there at that midden and grab an opportunity to stick it right up those arrogant deluded ****ers.

They might and if they do parading a cup would be the least of the issues that would have been at play.

Why would seeing a cup be giving a team more motivation? They already know we are the cup holders, not bringing the trophy isn't going to make them forget.
Next year, if we go to Celtic on the opening day and the unfurl the flag, is it going to make our boys more determined to beat them because they done so? Naw.

I don't think The Rose will beat Hibs, though they have already beaten a team which plays in the same league.
Hibs need to treat this match very seriously, and not under estimate them.

All I'm saying is it's best not to give them any additional motivation. They will as you say be motivated enough.
I just don't think it's a good idea.
Clearly you and the poster above disagree, but there you go. Just my opinion FWIW.

Hibs just need to ask Bonnyrigg if they had any objections.
They won't have, but that courtesy and respect would reduce any possible "motivation factor".

Alan Stubbs walking onto the pitch with the cup at H/T would be fantastic. Players will be getting team talks in the ****ty wee dressing rooms so won't effect them in anyway.

What a crass idea.
Not Hibs class at all.
And most unwise, given what happened when we paraded the CIS cup after a derby defeat.
