Hibs haven't failed to shift our allocation for any cup final this century. In fact three times we have sold more than half Hampden's capacity against Livingston, Kilmarnock and Ross County.
Given that fact the SPFL's decision to limit us to 17,500 is a disgrace that effectively hands an advantage to Celtic. Are we so lethargic and submissive as a support that it is outwith our imagination to organise some sort of 'on the day' protest against this biased move that disadvantages our club .... What's the point of the SPFL playing the game at a so called neutral venue at all if they then take an unjustifiable decision that makes that venue anything but neutral?
If it's just about money why not play the bloody game at 60,000 capacity Celtic park and be done with it.
To be honest I'm only thinking this way because of what in my opinion is Hibs absolutely tepid and pathetic response to the issue ..... I for one want to see a far stronger and public response from the club along the lines of accusing the SPFL of being biased in favour of Celtic.

So what have you got planned for the day that the lethargic tepid support can join in with?
Every gimmick hungry yob,
Digging gold from rock and roll
Grabs the mic to tell us,
He'll die before he's sold.

i don't think protests will achieve anything here, wouldn't surprise me if stewards are told to take down any protest banners etc

If people want to organise a protest then they should get on and do it.
There are multiple platforms that can be used to drum up support, appeal for financial assistance and so on. It's easy to look to other people to do it, if you want there to be a protest then put the work in to make one happen.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017.

So...what would a protest look like?

Singing about the TV broadcaster being SXxte causes extreme embrassment to all parties. Doncaster would not be happy about that.
Then again Premier would try turn the microphone off at our end.Cougars!!!

Nobody in the Hibs sections of the stadium will give the ticket allocation a moments thought on the day of the game. It’s already starting to feel like old news.

Given the reaction to last night's result, I'm beginning to wonder if we're actually going to need 17,500 tickets.
Some posters have gone from total elation to 'Ross Out' in the space of three days

It’s a pipe dream I know but wouldn’t that be something?
Something of this magnitude needs to happen for the authorities to sit up and take notice but it won’t.

Unfortunately it means that this type of **** will happen more in the future.
I really thought Someone like Ron Gordon would want to stand upto this clear bias.

It's a scandal that we haven't been given 50% of the tickets, an absolute scandal that could set a dangerous precedent.

Don't take our seats till the game starts but have a large banner calling out SPFL and Doncaster prominently displayed
Players then walkoff pitch before ref blows for start of game then do not return until fans in the ground.Last edited by gbhibby; 25-11-2021 at 10:32 AM.

The thing is for me is that if The Gunts where in the same position as us they wouldnt merely accept it and would demand no less than the full fair allocation, so why do we.
Ive emailed the SFA and am now in two minds about even attending, the fact remains those at the top only care for two clubs and until that changes nothing changes.
