As soon as Hearts and Hibs were drawn together in the Scottish Cup semi-final, the debate started on social media: Hampden Park or Murrayfield?

It was the same when the teams met in the 2012 Scottish Cup final.

On one hand you have the traditional aspect of going through to Glasgow. One of the aims at the start of the season is to get to Hampden and you make a day of it, taking over Mount Florida.

Alternatively, there is the argument of why should 50,000 fans travel from Edinburgh to Glasgow when there is a perfectly capable – some say better – stadium in the Capital to play host to such a fixture.

After all, the home of Scottish Rugby was used for the Betfred Cup semi-final between Hearts and Celtic last season, while the Tynecastle side have used Murrayfield in the past.

We want to hear from fans of both sides. Have your say in our poll.
