I haven't even bothered to read the rest of this thread. This question has been asked before when it comes to cup finals and there's only one answer, finals are played at a neutral venue for a reason and if you give one club less tickets than another it is no longer a neutral venue. The simple ( and only ) answer is that we get half the tickets because that's what we can sell .... If for some reason we can't then by all means we return some, but we all know that Hibs are easily capable of selling the 23,000 or so tickets we will be given for this game.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Why has the fifty-fifty split been abandoned for this final?
When one of the Old Firm are involved in a final, there's always the discussion about the rights and wrongs of the fifty-fifty split, but I'm interested to know why it's been scrapped this time.HIBERNIAN FC - ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY SINCE 1875

The pricing is a joke too. A flagship game but let's put off anyone who's not wealthy enough to go. £22 minimum for a child? Scottish football deserves to go down the pan.

The fear for the stadium owners is the half wits would damage the toilets etc if they thought they were in the Rangers end

It doesn't matter a toss how many tickets we sold for yesterday's semi. or any other semi for that matter. For cup finals this century Hibs have never failed to sell our allocation and in fact more than once have exceeded 25,000 for a final ... IE Livingston 40,000, Kilmarnock 35,000 and Ross County 30,000
Given that absolute fact to offer Hibs less than a 50/50 split is the SPFL favouring a club in a cup final. It is ... ABSOLUTELY F'ING WELL FUNDAMENTAL ... that if a club is capable of selling a half allocation then that is what it should be given. The prices are an outrage, but that's a different discussion.
If this is true ... and even now I'm struggling to believe it ..... Hibs should put a statement on the official site stating that this game is not being played at a neutral venue in the spirit of that term and that we are now offering to play the game at Celtic park ... that way Celtic can still get their 37,000 allocation and more and Hibs can be given 25,000 tickets ... I'm not even kidding !!!
Where are you Ron Gordon ?

Why are folk moaning about the price? I had an ADULT season ticket for Easter Road at 16.
Folk moaning about paying £35 for a CUP FINAL..........Our Cat A games at Easter Road this season are £35.

So hibs aren't going to appeal this? Are we just going to accept the favouring of celtic? Should be 50 50.

The whole thing smacks of elitism - the way the bigger team is being favoured and the way the less affluent are being priced out. Very sad for a national cup final which should be open, fair and accessible.

Celtic get the dressing room nearest their end. Both dressing rooms are exactly the same anyway.

If Hibs played Ross County and they had a small semi final support but wanted 50/50 for the final I really wouldn’t be that bothered.
Why are they allowing a team to dictate a higher number of tickets to allow more of their fans in than the opposition.
It’s not right and even Celtic haven’t exactly had 100% full ends for semi finals and finals over the years.
2016 - 22,130 for their semi against Ross County
2021 - 42,298 for their semi against St J

17,500 tickets might suit his agenda for trying to get more folk to buy season tickets next season.
"Buy a season ticket for the Hibees the only way to guarantee tickets for the big games"
Then this appears on the big screens

I think it's fundamentally unfair to start at a lower allocation for any team unless it's at there request
Give both sides 50/50 and a deadline to sell, anything unsold gets handed over
How can it possibly be any other way
What if it was celtic vs Livi - do livi just get 2000 tickets and celtic 50,000?
