All to do with access from where they park the buss.There might be a reason but why have away fans got such a good view at Ibrox? Looks terrible on tv seeing hundreds of empty seats on camera. Surely away fans should be in the crap seats in the wings of enclosure

Its a waste that separation corner, having bears all the way round from BF1 to the Copland front would make the stadium more intimidating and create a better atmosphere imo.There might be a reason but why have away fans got such a good view at Ibrox?

Something about £20 being the most you should pay for an away gameWhile I don't think St Johnstone would brought many more wasn't there a boycott over the pricing?

Stick away fans somewhere else
On the 18 yard line usuallyAll to do with access from where they park the buss.
31 quid apparently. Their wee ultras said something about 20’s plenty and boycotted it today. There was a thread on it.While I don't think St Johnstone would brought many more wasn't there a boycott over the pricing?
Try putting the Tims up there or Aberdeen.Seems a very weak reason. Surely it’s just as easy to access the enclosures. Looks terrible on tv and means we need to leave segregation on Both sides
Unfair @Uncle Albert already has his STTotal waste today with St Johnstone bringing a taxi load of fans, rather give those empty seats to school children or something.
Try putting the Tims up there or Aberdeen.
It would be carnage.
When i went to games years ago.
Hibs etc used to get put into the main stand.
Yeah. The twenty is plenty thingWhile I don't think St Johnstone would brought many more wasn't there a boycott over the pricing?
Hibs even set fire to Msin Stand with a flare..Try putting the Tims up there or Aberdeen.

Would need more mentally challenged barriers to get them in and out lolDon’t know how it would be any different from now. They would have a wall to one side and there would be segregation the other side. Right now we lose too many seats. Never once seen genuine trouble inside Ibrox
What a noise it made when it went off.Hibs even set fire to Msin Stand with a flare..
2 taxis and a corporation bus would have done them.
Watched Brentford v Utd game tonight and barely a cigarette paper between the Utd and home fans. We seem to over segregate
That would've included their team with them lol2 taxis and a corporation bus would have done them.
He missed 3 goals right enough not sure he's worthyUnfair @Uncle Albert already has his ST
Was in the West Enclosure not sure if that was same day there was trouble outside at the turnstiles..What a noise it made when it went off.
I was in Govan Front that day.
Got stuck in the netting above them and dropped back in amongst them.
It could've been a disaster as it was all wooden seats back then.
Hibs were nuts in those days-same with Aberdeen.
Think they were battling all through the game at the stairs if i mind right.Was in the West Enclosure not sure if that was same day there was trouble outside at the turnstiles..
That’s where the union bears should get moved to and the away fans to bf1.
There is 2 set of turnstiles for the Club Deck - one at front which is also has the West Enclosure turnstiles and one at the side of the Blue Gates which also has an entrance for our Club Deck HospitalityIt seems like this debate raises its head from time to time.
The SW corner is the easiest place to bottle up away fans , fairly short cordons can be put in place if required.
Relocate them to the west enclosure and you have a more complex job of kettling rowdy away fans into the ground. There is also an issue with where the club deck and enclosure exits are located. The turnstiles are very close together so it would be difficult to have one support in the West enclosure and another team in the club deck.
People have suggested housing the away fans in one end of the club deck which isn't a bad idea until you consider the club deck has 2 exits. If 600 away fans are at one end and 3000+ Rangers fans are in the remainder of the stands then you have a huge number of fans using only one staircase to exit. The away fan staircase then emerges in between the home turnstiles of west enclosure and fans exiting the Copland.
We used to give them the area where the Union bears are but I think that led to issues with home support being above - would be same with allocating enclosure. So either they need enough away fans to go above or they would be empty. The corner is easier to steward coming and going especially with the more antagonistic away supporters.Seems a very weak reason. Surely it’s just as easy to access the enclosures.

Less than 100
How much are we losing in ticket sales with this area reserved for away fans.
Some of the best seats in the stadium seldom getting used.
Stick away fans into the end of the enclosure, move the Union Bears into where away fans currently sit and move the fans from the enclosure into where the Union Bears currently sit.
Its because its a fully segregated concourse that they are in that corner
It always baffles me when teams like saints today have about 1 bus load of fans yet spread out over the whole section you'd think they'd just all sit together.
Very poor optics
What a dreadful support they have, for a club that's not long won the double as well.
