That’s a pretty decent effort selling a full Hampden allocation in just a few hours. Makes you wonder where so many of them were just the other week for the semi win against H****s?Quote:

kick off time i imagine, Aberdeen themselves ran four buses leaving at 7:30am, others would travel a bit later but it's an early start for themQuote:

Tbh while I always advocate a 50/50 split at Hampden and was pleased to see them push for 20k and prove a point by selling out, I don’t buy the early start stuff. Plenty Aberdeen fans live in the central belt and for those that don’t, an early start is part of a Hampden day out. You only have to look to England where teams have to travel much more than 3 hrs to get to games at Wembley at times.Quote:

Seen this argument come up a dozen times yet I find it difficult to ever sympathise with it. I can’t imagine sacrificing watching Hibs in a semi or final because it was 3 and a half hours away. Saying that however, I’ve never had to think about it :D.Quote:

Irrelevant of whether it’s Aberdeen or whoever, a cup final is a neutral occasion. Giving one team more tickets than the other (and it’s always the west coat teams, or rather two of them to be precise) shows that neutrality does not exist one ****ing bit within the game in our country.
If the Glasgow Football Association could just skip the inconvenience of the actual final itself and just hand the trophy to either Celtic or Rangers they’d leap at the chance.
It’s shameful.

“I’ve quickly lost my love for Hearts, the way they treated him. I’ve never been back to Tynecastle. Once Josh signed for Hibs, it was all Hibs for the family. Even my in-laws, everyone turned to Hibs. It was strange, but it feels normal now.”Quote:

Some challenge in the opening minute. Accidental but the Ayr boy looks in trouble. Surely protocol stops him playing on. He doesn’t look like he knows where he is.
