That's as maybe, but thought the guidelines were that you had to be an integral part of the match going ahead, and places were limited as in SFA guidelines.Quote:

Likewise when you see managers of other teams like Jim Goodwin at our games. They can watch it on tv. They don’t need to be there.
Sandy Clark there Saturday I'm guessing as his son was playing, but begs the questionQuote:

It’s not that you can only be there if it is vital for the game to go ahead.Quote:

I presumed there’d need to be a reasonably good excuse for them to be there rather than just the fact they’re a club official.Quote:

Fans back in stadiums in England from next week. While we won't be able to attend the final.
No, there’s a detailed document with a surprising amount of people who are allowed in the stadium.Quote:

But as they've reminded us time and again, they're simply "following the data", so Scotland must be in a worse position that Borishire. It's the only explanation.Quote:

Really don’t understand why Hibs aren’t more vocal about this? Absolute farce. Numerous venues in the country that could host it. Look at down south, fans at cup finals, and even the snooker was opened up to full capacity in a cramped theatre last weekend. If it was either of the Old Firm in the final you can bet there would be a heap of pressure on the SFA
The comments from UEFA in that BBC article demonstrate beyond doubt that the SFA simply don’t give a toss about getting anyone in, IMO. The clubs should be questioning this, publicly now.Quote:

No point in doing it for 2 or 3000. Has to be at Celtic, Sevco, Murrayfield or Hampden.Quote:

Sportsound discussing it now
Broadfoot saying if UEFA given dispensation to Wembley for Champions league final, then SFA could ask for the same for the Scottish Cup final
Definitely conversations behind the scenes happening
What is Daryl Broadfoots role? Is he some sort of advisor to the SFA?
I feel like hibs should be more vocal than they have been or maybe they are behind the scenes? I can't help feel if we still had Leanne Dempster at the club she would be asking questions

Maybe Jack Ross and Hibs think we've got a better chance of winning the thing without fans ! Not done us much harm so far this season.Quote:

Should have been happening weeks ago. Too short notice now and there’ll be some token efforts to make it look like they’ve done everything they could.Quote:

Yup. I don’t give a **** if it doesn’t make financial sense for it to happen. It’s a cup final. If fans can be allowed in then the SFA need to take the hit and allow it.Quote:
