Why bring this here?

Any chance that we can use the Fighting Fund to buy Dundee United?

This is now a Mourinho thread . . .

What's the just price of a loaf, but?

Great news! First shot on target apparently, Hibernian will be sick if it remains like this.

Taking a glance at the live text/match stats on the BBC. Looks like one way traffic at the moment.

What did Neilson do to collect more points than Warburton?

Perhaps broadcasters can distinguish a good investment from a bad one . . .

I'm sure it is not.

Quite funny to read all this crap. I wouldn't want the Rangers captain to talk to the press like this:

I agree with most of that. I wonder if we will get a surprise next year at right back though.

I'm not so sure about that. Current status is that BH has 'confirmed' something that was cleared up earlier in the thread. Great. Now that there is nothing to discuss BH is suggesting that we keep posting about, er, nothing. Could admin just bin this thread? It seems to me that this is a non topic of discussion. Arguably so from the very first post.

If the CCCS exceeds the allocation then it goes to a ballot. Everybody knows this when signing up. Again I'm surprised you are asking this as it is difficult to take seriously. Funny that you mention concepts disappearing at final time. It seems to me that everybody knows that cup finals aim to be neutral. Could it be that this concept disappears in the minds of people who didn't take the obvious steps required to get a ticket?

No. 'possible' is probably the wrong word for me to use. Perhaps it is better to say as neutral as is reasonable. It's reasonable to give Hibernian the chance to sell 21,000 tickets for this match. Surprised that you need to ask this question. I have no idea what the basis of your latter point is.

What is the point of discussing this?

I'm hoping for an 'all rounder' to come in to the midfield next season.

Should people think twice before circulating this sort of thing?

Without doubt it is more exciting.

Cup finals should be as neutral as possible. A neutral stadium and an equal split of the tickets where possible. How many advantages do we need to win? It really does make a difference to the point. There are fans who go each week but it is, in most cases, the fans who sign up to the CCC. When you sign up for the CCC you will, in my experience, see a little box that you can tick if you want to sign up for semi finals and finals. The mechanism for getting such tickets is clear. The rest knowingly leave it to chance.

Not really. We have cup finals at a neutral venue for a reason. If there is a reasonable expectation that a team will sell the allocated tickets then it should get them. The number of fans of the other team shouldn't make a difference. Besides, season ticket holders don't all attend each week. There are fans who attend each week but they number much less than 50% of Hampden.

It's like some people don't need evidence when certain other people can be accused of something.

Not sure why Margaret Thatcher is being discussed. She does get a mention in a guardian article today but it is limited. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/apr/26/hillsborough-disaster-deadly-mistakes-and-lies-that-lasted-decades

What's the problem? We all had an opportunity to sign up, for semi finals and finals, back at the start of the season. How many did?

Starting to wonder if the use of the word 'independent' is as silly as 'unity'. What do people really think that the problem is here?

I wish I had stayed at home. Foolishly agreed to take a ticket for Livingston and St Mirren despite the expectation that it would be like this.
