There have been winners who didn't face the OF. Winners: Scottish Cup: Hearts faced Grena , St Johnstone faced Hibs, ICT faced Falkirk, Dundee Utd faced Ross County, Kilmarnock faced Falkirk. League Cup: Livingston faced Hibs, Hibs faced Kilmarnock , St Mirren faced Hearts, Aberdeen faced ICT. If we get to the final it will be my 6th and we will have faced the OF in 5 of them. Aberdeen beat Celtic to lift the Scottish Cup 6 months ago. It can be done...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to actually be in the final to have a chance of lifting the cup and we won’t be because we won’t get past St.Mirren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you're not going to the game then, as that sounds like a waste of a ticket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no assumptions being made here. But the point was made that we havent been winning finals since 1991 because we always come up against one of the ugly sisters and other teams that have won trophies in that time by luckily avoiding them. Just pointing out there has been an outlier....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specifically, Rangers, for all 3 of them. Not forgetting Raith Rovers & Kilmarnock in the League Cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to understand a technical reason why a ticket bought through a club isn't immediately visible in the Hampden app. Guessing data not transferred in real time from one t'other. 6 decades ago anaw we could put a man on the moon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. If anything it’s making a stressful environment even more stressful. I’m just concerned we’ll get to Saturday and the 5 tickets I’ve bought for folk without smartphones will hopefully be on my phone for me to scan them in. If it was just me then I’d deal with it but I’m responsible for 4 others getting into the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, there are complaints about paper based ticketing too (price of postage, lost in mail, having to collect from office, copies and fraud etc.) The biggest challenge is almost always the transition period between the old and the new technologies. That takes some expertise and additional support resources - neither of which appear to be in abundance at the SFA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grizzlyg Posted October 29 Author Report Share Posted October 29 Still no word on when the tickets will appear on the app. Mind you sounds better than St Mirren process. Ex workmate a huge Buddies Fan (well about 6'2) Basically they use different ticketing app and you pick a section and they allocate you a seat. No option where you want to sit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pretzel Posted October 29 Report Share Posted October 29 Apologies if I’ve missed it if already mentioned, but does anyone know the deal with the bus tickets? I ordered online and received the confirmation email when I bought them, but no tickets were attached. I received the confirmation of which bus I’m on yesterday, but still no tickets to print or anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did notice they are all through as adults tickets when iv bought a couple of weans ones in there but thats not a deal breaker. Would be worse if it was 7 child ticks they sent me.

mio Posted October 29 Report Share Posted October 29 It’s ok I found out how to update it but it doesn’t need updated. The tickets just aren’t there. It says to wait until 10am tomorrow so I’ll just have to be patient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Posted October 29 Report Share Posted October 29 If they aren't in app you may need to log out and log back in. As long as your email buying tickets matches the one app is registered to it should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
