Seen a bit of the usual chat about whether the Motherwell vs St.Mirren Semi Final should be played at Hampden or moved to Easter Road or Tynecastle. Whilst of course there's some logic to that in terms of atmosphere and aesthetics for the TV cameras, I don't think it does anything for either the fans who will actually go to the game or the players. Clubs like Saints and Motherwell don't reach semis and finals very often and yes, Hampden isn't great, but it's still our national stadium and when all said and done playing there is a special occasion. Even logistically dragging both sets of fans over to the East Coast really makes little sense. It's Hampden all the way for me, and hopefully as two fan owned clubs they can both come up with a pricing structure that encourages as many fans as possible to actually go to the game. Should be a great day out and a tremendous match!
