Aye, I'd imagine it will be around 50% full at best, probably 25%. Even that would be enough to fit every Hibs and St Johnstone season ticket holder into Hampden, mind

Yes, I would love to be there (getting my first Covid jag this week) but I understand the decision to hold off.

We're dreaming here obviously but even with a 20% capacity crowd how good a weekend would playing, i mean winning, the Scottish Cup be at Wembley!!

Scottish Cup final in England? No thanks.

Jim Spence tweeting that talks MAY be underway.
No information just saying that.
If we could get every season ticket holder in it would be great

If UEFA are considering moving the CL final to England to get fans in, surely we can too.

Throwing out a totally random location here, but I've heard Carrow Road is lovely this time of year.

Not sure if that’s in response to the fans or St Johnstone entering the ESL.

Having read it again, I fear you are probably correct

**~~Allez Hibs~~** · 10-05-2021 10:18 AM

Who is voting no to this by the way?

Eh, Pitlochry Recreation Ground????

Vale of Atholl in case you didn't know.

Or Duff Avenue, (former ground of Moulin City

)

**JeMeSouviens** · 10-05-2021 10:48 AM

Even if all they had to play on a junior ground and all they could get in were the 500 they don't need approval for, that's what should happen.

**AugustaHibs** · 10-05-2021 10:54 AM

You’ve got Westminster and the FA doing everything they can to move the biggest club competition on the planets final to accommodate fans and scotgov and SFA/SPFL don’t bother their ***** for our game.

No wonder scottish football is so tinpot at times.

I'm reluctant to engage with the "Scottish football is *****" brigade, but this is one occasion when it is unequivocally true.

I don't see how you can blame the govt (about this specific game) unless/until a request is made to them?

Down south the gov are actively pushing for the CL final to be held in England so that fans can attend.

The gov up here don’t seem to be that bothered?

The government isn't actually in session yet?

I certainly don't think NS views football as a priority. They have made an effort when the SFA came to them asking for help with the UEFA situation for the Euros though?

***Northernhibee*** · 10-05-2021 11:16 AM

We may have stood a much better chance of Celtic didn’t head over to Dubai and have a piss up or if Rangers fans could behave themselves.

Why is that stopping the SFA from getting fans into a football stadium? Considering the Euros are just a couple of weeks later I’d suggest the SG would look extremely favourably at a decent sized crowd being used as guinea pigs prior to the games at hampden. The SFA just can’t be arsed spending time/money to sort it.

***Moulin Yarns*** · 10-05-2021 11:19 AM

I have it on good authority that the sfa will allow the game to be moved. The government has agreed that the cup final is so important that, within the covid guidelines they will allow the game to be played at Borough Briggs. At the same time the government has announced that Moray will remain in level 3 until 24th May.

OK I'm jesting. 😁

***blackpoolhibs*** · 10-05-2021 01:23 PM

What a real shame we wont have anyone there this season, as with it Being St Johnstone, we'd probably get a lot more tickets than we'd normally receive with them only probably wanting 15k or so.

**greenpaper55** · 10-05-2021 01:40 PM

It's Sturgeons fault, If she said yes it would happen tomorrow.

If the old firm were in it hampden would be getting used. Champions league final at Wembley the week after our final is rubbing salt into the wound

Easter Road? I'd quite happily sit in the away end to even things up!
