    Kieran Power 100% deserves to be there. Few people have done more for the club the last couple of years for no financial gain than him.
    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.

    Dont think anyone is doubting the great job KP has done, but it would be a difficult argument to put forward that he’s required to be there.

    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 question

    Yup. I’m presuming he’s there on the pretence of being ‘media’ or something along those lines.

    There’s a ton of people seem to be at the games who simply don’t need to be there.

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

    There are an allocated number of places available for things like media and club officials, including directors.

    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.

    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.

    The directors and senior club directors executives is limited only by safe boardroom capacity.

    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.

    Extremely disappointing we can’t have fans attend the game up here. Even if I couldn’t attend the game personally I would have liked to have seen people be able to attend the game and support the boys. I can only assume that they see it as too expensive to open the stadium for just a few thousand fans.

    The most interesting part of that article is.

    "The official handover of Hampden Park to Uefa venue management is scheduled for 14 May," a Uefa spokemsan told BBC Scotland.

    "However, Uefa agreed that the Scottish Cup final can take place on 22 May 2021 at Hampden Park under the management of the Scottish FA."

    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.

    Get it done

    There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

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

    Or the SFA get off there ***** and have a serious discussion with UEFA. UEFA's options for holding the European Champs have been squeezed with the withdrawal of some venues, so they may well be more open to allowing fans into the stadium for a one-of National Cup Final than they were previously.

    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.

    Or maybe the SFA are worried about Hibs fans invading the pitch again ?

    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.

    We should be publicly vocal.

    There’s every point. Even if it was 2000 and I wasn’t lucky enough to attend I’m no grudging any fellow supporters the opportunity to do so after one of the crappest years many will have endured

    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.

    If the CL Final is moved to Wembley, with fans allowed to attend, it makes the SFA's position look stupid. They'd have no good reason for not asking the question, or for UEFA to refuse the request !

    I agree but apart from mumping my gums on here I'm at a loss on how to get heard. Hopefully some fans will get some kind of campaign started which we can get behind. Even if it's just a few thousand fans
