Hibs fans at the Scottish Cup Final

The club will surely use this as an incentive to buy season tickets. Only this seasons holders to be put in the ballot

I’d like them to do that from a business sense but with all that’s went on this season and thousands of ST holders committing to a season ticket without seeing a game, I reckon the club may see it as a thank you to enter all 13k ST holders. Imo of course. They might do exactly what you’ve said but it could go either way, people commit to next season or people tell them to **** right off.

Did anyone get confirmation, or did it fall down at the application stage? Looks like it was withdrawn anyway so the whole debate is a moot point. Looks like there was no such thing as a valid AST this season.

Saves a bit of arguing anyway, so we can leave it there

I’ve not seen anything to suggest it was withdrawn, it’s just not been needed. Deadline for renewing it was 4th June. I have my confirmation of renewal from the ticket office on 29th May.

Surely the Away Season Ticket was only for League games.

Nope, covers all league and cup games.

I’m more confident than I was a few hours ago that something might happen. Would still be surprised, but it feels like there might be a chance.

Why it isn’t already planned, and being used as a test event for the Euros, is absolutely bonkers.

It beggars belief. Jason Leitch said at the weekend “WE do have test events of course going on” except the WE should have been THEY meaning the English as we in Scotland have done **** all. This one is on the SFA, it’s not like it’s the showpiece event for them...

Hope they give folk their money back for it then.

Just want to say, completely against the game being moved from Hampden . Anywhere else bar either of the arse cheeks and it cheapens the feel of tournament IMO.

I'm not an away season ticket holder but of course the ones that lined up last year should have priority over me

Rubbish. I’ve never heard a single yam worry about their 1998 cup win not being at Hampden. Get fans in the ground.

Didn't they win it at the Celtic Park arse cheek?

There’s was at Celtic Park, no?

[.Sean.]

Find it weird the usual mantra from loads of folk on here is about Hampden not being fit for purpose, a ****hole etc, you’re too far away from the park, then as soon as there’s a possibility it might get moved it seems like the end of the world and the final must be played there at the possible detriment to supporters in attendance?

FWIW I love Hampden and I hope the game goes ahead there, with supporters, but if an alternative venue is what is needed for fans to be in attendance then so be it.

[lucky]

Ideally the game should be played at Murrayfield, the biggest stadium which would allow as many fans in as possible. If it happens then a ballot of this season ST holders. I wouldn’t even give the players tickets to maximise the fans who have dug deep to keep the club going during the pandemic. But as we know the SFA won’t give a toss as there’s no Old Firm and the Scottish Government won’t either as they are home and hosed for the next five years.

To me, fans are the lifeblood of the game. If there’s a chance for them to be there, regardless of how many, then making that happen is much more important than the venue.

To be fair having it a the Tony Macs. Or East end park would cheapen the feel of it

Major cup comp finals should be at hampden, Murray field or one of the OF grounds

The issue to not having fans at hampden seemed to come from the fact that UEFA had the stadium

That now doenst seem to be the case so I can't see why fans can't attend at hampden

Apologies if this has been covered, but is the issue with Hampden not that it doesn’t have a safety certificate to allow fans to attend due to work being carried out to prepare the ground for the Euros?

It hadn’t looked like this was going to be an issue.

They did , I put it towards next season’s home season ticket. It made a huge difference to my finances 😉

They’ve just said in the government announcement that there can be a crowd at the final but due to restrictions between uefa and sfa it is unlikely to be hampden

Pretty worrying that Jason leitch and the government have no clue what is happening, as uefa said they are putting no restrictions. This should have been sorted weeks ago like the fa cup final.

That's the SFA's job to be proactive on this

How many will get into Pittodrie, 2000 fans each?

NS says she doesn't know if sfa have been in touch. It's a minor event thanks to no old firm. England was actively pushing for for fans and test events

That's exactly his point.

Someone said winning it not at hampden would cheapen it.

He's pointed out hearts fans never seemed worried about 1998.

[JeMeSouviens]

I get the concerns about Pittodrie's pitch but I find the argument about cheapening the tournament because the empty stadium isn't big enough baffling tbh.

Has Wembley been confirmed for the champions league final yet?
Was the Hampden decision for our final, not waiting on this one getting confirmed

I think it was expected to be confirmed today. If it happens the suggestion seems to be that it puts us in a good position for Hampden to have fans allowed

[gbhibby]

If Hampden not able to do it due to UEFA taking over the stadium Murrayfield is the sensible alternative especially to allow as many fans as possible. There is plenty of room in the grounds of Murrayfield for fans to socially distance. No Brainer.
Don't think there are any Rugby fixtures.
Imagine fans walking back into town Via Gorgie after winning it.

Wembley is not being used. It's looking like the CL final will be in Portugal.
