2021 Scottish Cup Final (Hibernian v St.Johnstone)


Recommended Posts

This is a game-changer. I was all for giving our 300 tickets to players and staff, but Hibs are handing a large portion of them out to supporters. Could our team cope with the intimidating noise from 240 socially-distanced opposition fans? We must match them with 240 of our own. It’s the only way that we’ll have a fighting chance.

We've got folk in the East Stand that could make more noise than 240 by themselves. 

Not that it would be coherent, or supportive.

The most ridiculous thing is the lack of explanation.

I wonder if Stuart Cosgrove will give Jason Leitch more than the usual easy questions on OtB Saturday?

 

The pair of them need to stop letting Leitch do his 'man of the people' routine and ask him some proper questions. If they aren't willing/able to as it's a football show (of sorts) and don't believe it's their role to question him then that's understandable, but get him off the show and stop giving him half an hour every week to spout patronising garbage to football fans.

Looks like no fans now, scarcely 24 hours after they were confirmed. This has been a complete and utter clusterfuck. Surely they would’ve known yesterday that Glasgow was staying in tier 3, why allow the PR disaster that is the 600 fan announcement to happen at all?

"contingency plans" and 600 "spectators" mentioned in that first tweet. Ballot for key workers from the Glasgow area or some other such nonsense?

BBC reporting that there will be no fans at all now, but yeah I saw that earlier too.

How the government's dealt with Scottish football throughout the pandemic summed up nicely in just a couple of days.

Farcical.

It's not the government's fault the SFA never had the foresight to try and use this game as a test event for the Euros. It's not the government's fault the SFA never even tried to get fans in to this game until actual fans pestered them about it. It's not the government's fault the SFA didn't have a plan B or C or D for fans attending the SFAs showpiece of the season. The SFA were just plodding along hoping nae c**t would bother, they're a shower of useless c***s.

The Government approved 600 fans literally one day before they said no fans were allowed at games.

The head knows not what the arse is producing.

Ah this is the kind of inept f**k ups that's been missing from our game these last few months.

From you can't have any fans

Fans, you want fans?  Sure have thousands of them at the game.

By thousands we actually meant a few thousand

Actually by a few thousand we meant a few hundred

Split those few hundred between you both

Well you know what.  No fans for anyone.

 

Coming up next week.  Hints of a stadium change and thousands of fans at the game in Murrayfield.

 

Our games fucking brilliant.  Give me this fly by wire shitshow over boring sensible ran leagues.

Who on earth out with the two sets of fans would want to go through all the restrictions rigremole of getting in and out to watch Hibs versus St Johnstone? Cup final or otherwise.

Well quite. Tbf I don't think there are many in the two sets of fans who want to go through the rigmarole either. Anyway looks like we won't have to worry about any of this now. Scottish football, some laugh eh?
