Giant screen at Leith Links or Easter Road ?!

When do Levels next get reviewed ? As at present Nicola won’t make an exception

We should get chief inspector Cameron Meiklejohn on to the case, him being a Hibs fan and in a position of power 😁

Need to get her husband to put some pressure on her, does he post on here? Alternatively get Ian Blackford to put pressure on her I believe he posts on here.

Its ridiculous really there isnt fans at the final.

especially only couple weeks after there will be 25k at Hampden.

Pressure should be put on

It’s the weekend before ours.

What about the English play offs? I think they're being played at Wembley with fans and they're after the Scottish Cup final.

Not having fans at a national cup final when it’s entirely possible if there’s a will to make it happen is a disgrace.

[GreenCastle]

The Scottish FA are clueless and it's no wonders fans / sponsors don't have any confidence in them

Whoever signed off the UEFA take control of the stadium situation should be sacked.

Even if this is the legit reason then why not allow fans in small numbers to attend. Should be really easily to police and even 500-1000 each would add more atmosphere and the occasion better for everyone.

Families of the players should even be able to attend and even a ballot for some fans - who have to show a negative test could easily be done.

I see the Club have launched a "couch cup final" t shirt for pre order already. Fair play.

Both clubs should be lobbying to have fans at the game when it’s permitted in the governments restrictions. I’d have no chance of a ticket but even having a few thousand of us there would make it more special and legitimate for the rest of us.

If we are going to have a mantra I hope it makes more sense than Get it Happen. 😉

Nonsense. I'm fully expecting Hibs to hammer St Johnstone 3 nil with a dominating display to put to bed that hoodoo before returning to the pitch to collect their trophy in "Hibernian Football Club Scottish Cup winners 2020/2021 - Get It Happen" tshirts.

Anything less and I'm starting a Ross Out poll.

Wouldn’t really be fair to let some fans in for a Cup Final when 10’s of thousands would be locked out.

I totally agree.
Unless I was one of the fans who got in.

You could say that about any high profile game over the years - fans miss out. Happens all the time with concerts etc.

Of course fans would be disappointed but if they allowed some Hibs fans / opposition fans in to support the team surely it will make it a more memorable occasion?!

Watching events (boxing last night / tennis / England football / darts) around the world have fans in them but tin pot Scottish FA can’t even try to get a small number in - shows their ambition.

Don't you think that's a bit like cutting your nose off to spite your face?
Why shouldn't there be some random draw of season ticket holders for the few tickets available? I personally wouldn't expect to get one but I'd much rather have a few thousand hibbys there then none at all

Levels were reviewed recently. All of Scotland is at present in Level 3 but goes to Level 2 on Monday 17th May. Although no specific reference is made to football games it becomes much less strict than now, leaving it very much in the hands of the Scottish Parliament. Anyone got the right contact?

I’d be delighted that Hibs fans were able to attend even if I was to miss out on attending myself. I’d be very jealous of course but happy for those that got lucky, especially after the year we’ve all had.

Nice T Shirt.

But it doesn’t do it for me. If we win I’ll be unable to stop myself from buying every piece of merchandise they make, like in 2016.

If we get beat and Id bought that T shirt it would be going in the bin.

There is guidance around stadia in level 2. 500 permitted in seated stadia, 250 in standing. If you want up to 5000 local council needs to approve, above 5000 government.

If the club managed a ballot for current season ticket holders that want to be in it then I don’t see a problem.
If it were to go along the usual Hibs Ticketmaster lottery shaped effort then it’s not going to be fair, well managed or pleasant.

All hypothetical of course.

[B.H.F.C]

It’s never happening which is absolutely scandalous.

SFA would be making more of an effort if either of the uglies were in the final.

[Frazerbob]

The SFA have absolutely no interest in trying to get supporters to see the game. It’s too much work and expense that they can clearly do without. Disgraceful from the custodians of our game.

With that in mind do you think the clubs should try and get the game moved to a neutral ground, Livingston if it's St mirren or dunfermline if its St Johnstone? Sfa won't agree to it but if the clubs agree to pay the ground rent?

The only way the clubs will push for a ground move is if the fans get themselves organised and put real pressure on. There’s no sign of that happening.

I would hate for any cup final to played on anything but grass, something lacking at Livingston and I'm sure dunfermline have a synthetic pitch now as well. I would still be open to moving the game if it means getting fans in though

Yup.

Hibs and whatever Saints make the final should be joining forces to demand the game is moved venue to allow fans in.

I’d be pretty disappointed in Hibs if they didn’t put a hell of a lot of public pressure on to get it moved. If they’ve been told that it quite simply won’t be happening then Hibs should be publicly condemning it.

I chose these grounds for the location between the respective clubs. For convenience, like.
