    Anyone got a holiday booked/missing the final?

    The girlfriends Dad is taking the family to Kefalonia in Greece for 10 days, flying out 24th May. All booked up a couple of months ago.

    I don't think I have any way out of it :(

    Anyone else got something booked and absolutey gutted to be missing the Final?

    Was speaking to someone who was paying £400 to change there holiday as they also had it booked and clashing with the final.

    Can I have your ticket, I don't need it but would like it anyway to add to other ones I don't really need.

    Buy your ticket and leave the seat empty so a lucky fan has a place for their sandwiches.

    My bro has a holiday booked, 5 days, canny mind where. He flies out on the Friday and there's no other flights till the Wednesday, no chance in hell he can re arrange or travel later. On the plus side, I'm getting his ticket.... Unless he finds a solution then I'm we shafted!

    The Greeks/the airline/the holiday co/the father-in-law could go bust before the final

    Left by mutual consent!
    Anyone else know someone that is choosing not to go? After last year my Dad said he would never go to a final again, and true to his word he is not going to go.

    I'm going back to America for the second half of May to visit my family so I will be missing the final.

    Maybe I should be posting this in the omen thread, but I missed the final last year too after going to all the other cup games because my parents came here to visit me & we were in London on the day of the final. Maybe my family doing the opposite is a sign Hibs will get the opposite result this year.

    Yes we have a holiday booked to mainland Greece leaving on the 25th.
    Having never missed a Hibs Scottish Cup Final since the 70's I see it as possibly the best good luck omen Hibs could have!!!
    Where will I find a bar in Kalambaka (Meteora) to watch the game?
    Then again if Samaras is listed to play there could be a good chance.
    Could be the start of an even more enjoyable holiday. GGTTH.

    Wife booked a "surprise" holiday three months ago- flying Sat 25th - Montego Bay - can't believe it

    I suppose I may as well ask - options

    1. Try and find an Americian channel that may cover the game.

    2. Live pay stream.

    3. Hibs TV ?

    Any advice please (apart from not going on holiday)

    I've got a long weekend break booked for a couple of months now....to come back to Scotland

    Feel really sorry for those that find themselves lumbered with a holiday and no chance of being at the game.

    Around for the final of course, but heading to Spain with 10 Jambos on 7th June, would be nice to be able to wear a Scottish Cup winners t shirt for the week!

    Baby not due till 7th June. Just been told she's being induced round about 23rd. Could get tight.

    Do you have to pay for a day old kid or do you think I could just "lift him over"

    At last years final I got talking to the old boy sitting beside me, there was a spare seat next to him and I asked him why that was.

    He explained that his wife had died earlier that week and that was her seat. I asked why he didn't give her ticket to a friend or relative. He said he would have but they couldn't come as they were all at the funeral.

    1st baby due on 27th May.... Children are so selfish. Mind you, I'll be going anyway - just have to drive and keep an eye on phone which in no way will be on silent till at least full time.
