I’d like them to do that from a business sense but with all that’s went on this season and thousands of ST holders committing to a season ticket without seeing a game, I reckon the club may see it as a thank you to enter all 13k ST holders. Imo of course. They might do exactly what you’ve said but it could go either way, people commit to next season or people tell them to **** right off.

Saves a bit of arguing anyway, so we can leave it there

I’ve not seen anything to suggest it was withdrawn, it’s just not been needed. Deadline for renewing it was 4th June. I have my confirmation of renewal from the ticket office on 29th May.

Why it isn’t already planned, and being used as a test event for the Euros, is absolutely bonkers.

It beggars belief. Jason Leitch said at the weekend “WE do have test events of course going on” except the WE should have been THEY meaning the English as we in Scotland have done **** all. This one is on the SFA, it’s not like it’s the showpiece event for them...

Just want to say, completely against the game being moved from Hampden . Anywhere else bar either of the arse cheeks and it cheapens the feel of tournament IMO.

Rubbish. I’ve never heard a single yam worry about their 1998 cup win not being at Hampden. Get fans in the ground.

Find it weird the usual mantra from loads of folk on here is about Hampden not being fit for purpose, a ****hole etc, you’re too far away from the park, then as soon as there’s a possibility it might get moved it seems like the end of the world and the final must be played there at the possible detriment to supporters in attendance?

FWIW I love Hampden and I hope the game goes ahead there, with supporters, but if an alternative venue is what is needed for fans to be in attendance then so be it.

Ideally the game should be played at Murrayfield, the biggest stadium which would allow as many fans in as possible. If it happens then a ballot of this season ST holders. I wouldn’t even give the players tickets to maximise the fans who have dug deep to keep the club going during the pandemic. But as we know the SFA won’t give a toss as there’s no Old Firm and the Scottish Government won’t either as they are home and hosed for the next five years.

:agree:

To me, fans are the lifeblood of the game. If there’s a chance for them to be there, regardless of how many, then making that happen is much more important than the venue.

To be fair having it a the Tony Macs. Or East end park would cheapen the feel of it

Major cup comp finals should be at hampden, Murray field or one of the OF grounds

The issue to not having fans at hampden seemed to come from the fact that UEFA had the stadium

That now doenst seem to be the case so I can't see why fans can't attend at hampden

Apologies if this has been covered, but is the issue with Hampden not that it doesn’t have a safety certificate to allow fans to attend due to work being carried out to prepare the ground for the Euros?

It hadn’t looked like this was going to be an issue.

Pretty worrying that Jason leitch and the government have no clue what is happening, as uefa said they are putting no restrictions. This should have been sorted weeks ago like the fa cup final.

I think it was expected to be confirmed today. If it happens the suggestion seems to be that it puts us in a good position for Hampden to have fans allowed
11-05-2021, 12:28 PM

If Hampden not able to do it due to UEFA taking over the stadium Murrayfield is the sensible alternative especially to allow as many fans as possible. There is plenty of room in the grounds of Murrayfield for fans to socially distance. No Brainer.
Don't think there are any Rugby fixtures.
Imagine fans walking back into town Via Gorgie after winning it.

I think the biggest issue against holding it at Wembley is the foreign press and the need for them to quarantine if they're coming from certain countries, there was a request to by pass this turned down I believe. Heard it on the radio in the background so not 100% on this. I'm assuming Portugal has allowed free movement?
Obviously we don't have that issue for the domestic Cup final so the precedence of UEFA allowing the game and crowd is still pertinent

Yes that's right the problem is with press and uefa staff not wanting to quarantine or test. Portugal and all of Europe has looser restrictions than uk

SFA have got to be all over this.
Get a request in for 15k and have all ST holders that want to go at the match.
I doubt we'd get that number or the split in our favour but if the game is truly about the fans then the administrators should be working on their behalf and a true reward would be all those who have paid out for no games so far getting this opportunity.

All cup finals are a 50/50 split, so Saints would get the same number as Hibs

Only if the finalists want it Billy.

For example Ross County never asked for 50% against us nor did Gretna ask for 50% against them.

I would imagine SJ could well shift 50% of say 5000 though:greengrin

I do appreciate that and can see it as the likeliest outcome.
These are different circumstances and just a suggestion really. It will be a bit of a downer that we would possibly have half our ST holders unable to attend while StJ fans might get 4 per ST?
Always in favour of the 50/50 split any other time

Problem with Wembley seems to be UK Covid restrictions placed on those coming from overseas. That's not an issue for the Scottish Cup Final.

IMO the SFA are just keeping quiet, knowing we're close to the point where time has run out to print tickets, agree protocols etc. The "problem" disappears when we run out of time.

All too much of a rush job for me. See the season out, as it has been played throughout, with an emty stadium and all covid protocols in place.. Look at getting people in for next season.

The SFA, and Hibs for that matter, have made a hash of ticketing arrangements in the past with months of preparation available to them, I imagine trying to sort this in 11 days or less would be a shambles.

Surely it’s better to try though?

Each to their own but I don’t get your logic at all. It’s a cup final and we’ve just had over a year without getting to go to games, of course we should try to get people in if we’re allowed.

Might be difficult to organise in a short space of time but nobody is asking you to do it. There’s people employed to ensure it runs as smoothly as possible, let them worry about the practicalities of it all.

Nothing is decided at the minute and dialogue is still progressing with all parties - decision later this week from SFA likely - as per above, wheels now moving (should’ve been weeks ago).
The ambition from the club is still as many fans as possible at Hampden for the final. Club will communicate with fans soon.
One thing I can say with certainty is it won’t be Murrayfield, Ibrox, Parkhead or Tynecastle. Hampden at the moment does have sufficient works outside and inside going on at the moment. As I know more, I’ll tap in.

Rare case in which there's benefits to going and not going. Be amazing to be there, but next to no social side to it and at least having to watch in pubs or houses brings more folk together.

I buy two season tickets. If only half of season ticket holders get one then I’d be happy to take just one ticket rather than be in a ballot. Think that would be fair.

Wonder if they'll use the same capacity for the Euro's for this game?

If there was a way to filter the current 10k season ticket holders by number of years renewing, i would go with this (i wouldn't get one)

I reckon Ron will currently be scrolling through every thread on here since he took over, noting the names of those who criticise - especially on the match update threads. :agree: :devil:

Genuinely excited I might just see the game. Then again I never win raffles:confused:

Deadline for renewal is this Friday, ballot of all renewed by that date sounds fair?

It should be people that had one last season first as they didn't get to any games.

Should go for the absolute maximum, ask for a full house and see what we get. Pussyfooting around with figures like 500, 1000 etc will just make for a ridiculous event. Need to set the bar high for full crowds to return at the start of next season with no restrictions whatsoever

The pitch invasion will be a bit easier to control this time round

Without any great thought, I would have thought it would have to be equal opportunity to those 10000 who took the plunge and renewed a year or so ago.

I hope I am there, I suspect I won't be. That's the breaks.

Could be a wee money spinner for Hibs if the club say it's a ballot for renewals only

Paying ST holders for this season must be the priority, with none going out to corporates, sponsors, executives, free-loaders etc. If Hibs were looking for a way to repay some of the loyalty shown by Hibs fans over the last 15 months, they've found it.

That would cause uproar imo. Ballot for those who bought a season ticket for this season seems the fairest way possible to me.

I think that any tickets should go to the fans in order of the most expensive season tickets. So the £1000 followed by gold,then silver and if any are left bronze.

Completely disagree with all posts saying it should be for renewals. It’s for this seasons final not the next
