Cup final display

Seems to be the norm for the past couple of years fans behind the goals having a display. Is this something the clubs finance and arrange or the SFA put on? No doubt Celtic will have a tribute to McNeil so what is likely to happen in our end? Dig out the old Neilson plane banner and update it?

 

Seriously hope whoever does get involved for us finds something decent.

It's all shaping up to be a procession/nothing but a Celtic tribute.  I seriously hope we can **** them up!

Going by everyone on here will we have enough at the final to cover a display 

We can always use the display to cover up the empty seats.?

Just a big white flag! After all we’ll be expected just to surrender, roll over let them win the treble treble and dedicate it to Billy McNeil.

The tragic passing off McNeil will almost make this final a tribute to him on their part. Not sure if there’s the will among our support currently for a display.

Beat me to it Rudy. Judging by a lot of posters this is what we’d be as well doing. A big blood doesn’t show sign and the twirly is how it should be

White handkerchiefs

 We shall go on to the end. We shall fight at Hampden, we shall fight in the first half and the second, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our goal, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the benches, we shall fight on the wings, we shall fight in defence and in the midfield , we shall fight in attack; we shall never surrender.

I could also have left in fighting in the streets but thought I better not.

The "Foundation Final" has a nice ring to it. The cup win to be dedicated to all the fans who saved the club. 

 

Feck Cellik and the weegie press and any attempt to hijack the final.

Fill the place with flags, bit of maroon and white confetti, some streamers and a mass twirly as the players walk onto the park. Job done.

To be fair we have the most boring set of fans around, we can't even do a decent twirly these days never mind set up a good display.

From what I'm hearing they've already asked if all their players can wear No5 in tribute to McNeil for the final, they were allowed to do this for Jimmy Johnstone when he died allegedly, but it wasn't a cup final.

Exactly!

 

Not the Heart of Midlothian I grew up supporting. Feck them all we should be using this as motivation to ruin their party! You want to make history then you stop the treble treble at the ‘Billy McNeil’ final, will be almost as epic as ramming the Hibs 5-1in a final!

These display placards and streamers are bad for the environment, think about the carbon footprint, cost and man hours to make and tidy up Hampdump just wear maroon and a mass twirly

The streamers in 2012 were biodegradable, Hampden insisted on it.

I think they're doing this at the weekend. Might also for the final I guess.

Hmmm, finding it hard to disagree, but pretty sure their limbs are most likely all "real"

Never said I’d set anything up champ. Just that your lazy comment about Hearts being above such things is arrogant. 

 

If it works for much bigger and supportive fan bases than our own, then to poo poo the idea because you think it’s something Hibs came up with is a bit sad.
