No info about these secret £70 hospitality packages then? A shufty at the Saints, United, SFA and Celtic websites show nothing and google brings up sold out deals from previous years. What a weird situation for a cup final.

I don't have a problem with it.
It would be great if everyone was let in free, but I don't think £35 is excessive for a ticket, regardless of whether an adult, child or plant pot sits in the seat.
In context with other sporting events it's not bad, for example the absolute cheapest concession price for the FA Cup final is £35, and majority of tickets are much more expensive than that.....
You might have a problem with it if you were going and also taking your wife and 2 or 3 kids.
Yesterday's Welsh Cup Final prices were Adult £8, Senior Citizens £5, Under 16's £1. See, I can do ridiculous comparisons too.

Well they already have. St Johnstone have been selling tickets midway up the North Stand when there's no chance they will fill them all.
Sorry.

Last game of the season too. No other game to get it out of the system and leave the media to focus on. It's going to be a long summer with this hovering over them and then have it all regurgitated again at the start of next season. Ouch.

I think the head honchos get freebies, and employees of the customer will get discounted offers.
Seems fair.

My mate works at specsavers and was told if he wanted a ticket it cost £30. Not sure what allocation they would get though
That makes a bit more sense. A number of Main Stand freebees but also an allocation for them to take up if required.

It must help the ticket sales when both teams think they have a genuine chance of winning combined with it being bigot brothers free.
Whats the story with freebee tickets for the SFA and sponsors? I read it's 10000 but that seems excessive. Those will add a few more to the attendance total too.

From what I can gather, the sections 201-204 are padded seats that Celtic are selling themselves at £70 a pop hospitality to Saints fans.
This is the first time I've seen this mentioned as neither club mentioned hospitality packages in their ticket information. Where did you find out about this?

It's great to see Saints fans flying in from all over for the game. It's a pity the media never mention our global fan base as much as other teams.

Very good TRS. Hat well and truly tipped.

I can't really guarantee it anymore. I vividly recall quite enjoying it when I listened the first few times. However, after hundreds of listens, I can no longer say for sure. There are no 'laddy' football chants, there isn't a huge use of instrumentation (vocals, guitar, a tiny bit of bass and an even tinier bit of violin). No drums. It's more similar to a ballad in terms of tempo. No players, past or present, are mentioned in the song.
I know what you mean about losing the impact of something through repetition. Stick with your first impressions though.
That's good about the players names. I'm sure it'll be fine as you're obviously a genuine musician which kind of helps in these situations! Best of luck with it.

It's maybe not what you'd expect from a cup final song.
You mean it's good?

http://www.thecourier.co.uk/sport/football/dundee-fc/dundee-fc-overwhelmed-by-demand-for-tickets-to-championship-decider-1.342853. This is how big a team Dundee are.
Brilliant. Big queues...panic buying = 50 people at the club shop!
I think we can safely use a P&B favourite to sum up the whole Dundee situation at the moment...scrambling for relevance. Obviously the Courier didn't want them to feel left out.
Oops, of course...thanks Kyle!

You coming up you miserable c**t?

Looks like Liverpool's long term strategy of buying up local properties, running the immediate area down, lowering house prices with people moving from their family homes as a result has worked a treat. Those cheeky Scousers, eh. #JFTL4

I hadn't realised that St Johnstone had, in fact, had a minute's applause in their next match. The Marly pointed this out to me. I'm really disappointed that United haven't done anything - I think that's pretty poor.
I think though that it's going to both clubs as its a request to put something in the matchday programme, so might need the backing of both clubs?
From memory of semi final programmes, I think they include, or have included, sections on players/connections between both clubs so a bit about Redford would obviously fit in there. Not sure if a special tribute is appropriate at this stage now though.
Mind you, it's an SFA publication so with Redford being an ex-Rangers player they'll probably have an 8 page feature about his Ibrox cup winning days.

Have to agree that the final's not the place as 2 leagues have already taken place between the clubs since his unfortunate demise.
We managed to do something appropriate for an ex-player that spent some time with us in the twilight of his career. Any petitioning should really be aimed at United who apparently have done nothing for a player that is rightly fondly remembered as one of their European heroes. I'm quite shocked they've done nothing actually.

5000 at McDiarmid on Saturday for cup finalists, shocking. For gods sake move the final to a smaller ground or there will be 20 000 plus empty seats.
Trolling this terrible should be punishable by death.
I'm sure Jupe won't mind me re-posting his response to the same material used by the same troll on a different thread. It says it all really.

Quiet you! The words The German Model are threatening to manifest themselves from out of the ether...
Sounds good to me.

Global brand Arsenal v diddy Hull and they get an even split of tickets? I wonder if the laughter at Hampden has died down yet.

Good lord, it's nice to have a normal match thread after the cup semi shitshow.
The title needs tweaked a tad further though. The Armageddon Scottish Cup Final would fit in wouldn't it?

That's because you're very, very old.
Just 2 very's, pheeeeeew.

Desperate to watch a game that the whole of Scottish football didn't want? How strange.
