It doesn't exactly look like a stadium that's ready for the Big Finale to the Season...

To be fair there’s no fans there so doesn’t really matter what the outside of the stadium is like.

But Prince Willy is going so they'll have painted inside. Wonder if he'll present the trophy? Or at least stand beside it and invite PH to lift it himself.

Ridiculous that he will travel hundreds of miles to go and fans can't attend

Maybe they feel it would encourage people to be outside and gather when Glasgow is in level 3?

They’re not the only ones. Main story on bbc Scotland Scottish football page? Some Rangers statement about taking unnamed individuals to court. The nations showpiece final is halfway down the page

Good job promoting the sport :faf:

The Scottish FA can’t even get a sponsor !

I wouldn’t expect them to spend millions on banners etc but compare to English Cup final last weekend with fans and how it looked and we really don’t help ourselves up here trying to sell a product / promote the game.

Media folks generally don’t like Hibs. I’ve always tried to not believe that but they can’t dislike Celtic for obvious reason so they go for the next option. Hibs.

Of course they know, they just don't really care as none of the bigot twins are involved.

Also Dan Walker, on his last football focus, will be talking about the big game, and he didn't mention 114 years

You’d just wish they would get their facts right. According to Tom English in his article about Jack Ross, Martin Boyle is in the last months of his contract.

Technically true but he could say that about every player and he wrongly implies it is a small number of months

The teuchter that reports on BBC Scotland Sports in the morning said yesterday that both Hibs and St Johnstone are seeking a second Scottish Cup win.........................

Hadn't heard this was happening but explains the reluctance to take the game away from Hampden, none of the smaller grounds touted like Pittodrie and EEP will have been deemed suitable for him to be there.
2000 fans denied watching so he's afforded nicer surroundings

Not according to everything I have read - he is watching it in a bar in Edinburgh.

In fact its mentioned here further down this one.

Yes, totally different to Greenbeards thoughts.
Maybe changed due to level 3 status?

I'll settle down again till I see him handing over the cup!

Just saw Andy B round the back of the stadium with the biggest ladder I've ever seen.


He 'kindly requested' that I don't take a photo of him, though.
