Me two iv waited 10 yearsIt's a decision for everyone to make on their own.
I know what I am doing.
Agreed, the club will issue a don’t come plea, and the bill will cordon thd area off. I don’t think George Square will be big enough.@StevenGe55ard is correct. Whatever we think, it really is that simple. I suspect we will see fencing and a big Police presence around Ibrox anyway.
Beer gardens in town are fully booked. A lot from here have booked the Bier Halle sat night.Time is marching on towards this, wondering what everyones plans are? The game itself is at 12:30. I get people will want to be at Ibrox, but with the roadworks etc, it might cause access issues etc. I also want to see the game, doesn't sound great standing watching it on my phone.
I am wondering about watching the game then getting a taxi into town to George Sq. Even then, I am assuming there will be many Bears descended there to have a sing song and a few cans with? Were there issues with cops last time and drinking in public etc? Are Bears expecting thousands in attendance like last time? More? I see a heap of folk saying they have hotels booked and are travelling from all over the country, beer gardens will surely be a no go in town I would have thought?
The last thing you want is beer gardens etc. Pubs will be utter gash, compared to George Square.Time is marching on towards this, wondering what everyones plans are? The game itself is at 12:30.

That’s the simplest solution. Watch the game in the house and the subsequent celebrations, then if people are going to congregate, then they are free to do so in a public place and there’s nowhere more public than George Square, so I would imagine that’s where most folk will meet.Nobody will be getting anywhere near the immediate area of the ground. There will be road blocks and barriers without a doubt. Plus one side of Edmiston Drive is closed and likely the full part of it will be for the 15th. Then you have an actual construction site behind the Copland Stand.
Also I don’t really know why people want to stand outside the stadium not being able to see Tavernier lift the trophy? I’ve waited 10 years for this moment to come our way again. If you think I’d settle for watching this massive moment in our history from a mobile phone screen outside Ibrox because I can’t actually be inside there then you’d be mental.
Watching the game and celebrations/interviews etc in the house with family then possibly going into George Square with friends.
As OP , the club need to make a statement on whether we can gather and what arrangements are . Open the gates for season ticket holders and those vaccinated

Funny enough my dog likes up around Ibrox mid morning etc, bit of a coincidence tbhI might just be out for my daily walk, anyone else fancy a walk around our famous City Centre meeting square...I dunno, say 3 o'clock
Excellent point, I'm sure they stay over in a hotel even for home games, certainly be good to send them en route to History with a send offWhat time do the players usually arrange for an early kick off?
I packed it in around 9:30ish to head for the last train and it was still decent (i think ) I was pretty well down the road at that pointWhat time did George Square start winding down last time?
Folks,just a heads up I’m currently up at George Square and scaffolding is going up around the big statue in the middle.
No either of this was pre planned maintenance or is it ahead of next week ?

It will be maintenance as the middle one always needs it due the nature of it material use to build itMaybe it’s maintenance as the council habe let things in the city become grimy during lockdown. The statues in the square were all covered in muck/moss kind of stuff a few weeks ago when I was there.
The fans will organise it themselves and those too terrified to venture out their own home can stay inside forever.There are no arrangements because we aren't allowed to gather. Next change to the levels is 17th May at the earliest

Of course you are correct. However, given that half the road is already effectively blocked off would you not anticipate the Police will put barriers up to block access to the other side of the road to both vehicles and pedestrians? I'd say its a certainty.Surprised at folk saying that fans wouldn't get anywhere near the stadium even if they tried. The Stadium stretch of Edmiston Drive is still fully accessible on foot and only one side of the road is closed off to vehicles - not that fans would be turning up in their cars and parking outside the ground anyway.
Unless folk know of impending restrictions that are about to be put in place that the rest of us don't know about?
For that to happen, there would need to be blocks put in place at the Broomloan Road end of Edmiston Drive on the approach to the stadium, of which there currently isn't any.Of course you are correct. However, given that half the road is already effectively blocked off would you not anticipate the Police will put barriers up to block access to the other side of the road to both vehicles and pedestrians? I'd say its a certainty.
The Club will be instructed to get the message out this week that we shouldn't gather at the Stadium. Its inevitable. I appreciate its equally inevitable that some will go there but I suspect they won't be seeing much at all or get anywhere near the Main Stand side of the Stadium.
Is your dog called Lana?Funny enough my dog likes up around Ibrox mid morning etc, bit of a coincidence tbh
Yeah I’ve saw this too . Let’s face it people talking for weeks about George sq and Ibrox gatherings , the cops will lift you for having a beer in the street , so they won’t allow us to go full pelt . All we’ve done is give them notice of our plans . It’ll be horses dogs the full riot squad . I’ve said all along the safest way is to open the gates . They way they know who is insideJust got put in our group chat that George Square is closed to public.
Can this be verified by anyone?

Is this from a credible source? Or is it just our mentally-challenged 'friends' playing silly buggers again? I'm aware some work is ongoing within the Square on some of the statues but nothing more.Yeah I’ve saw this too .

George Square on a Saturday afternoon Is a recipe for disaster.
Assuming people will be turning up after the game, not watching it on a mobile phone.Can someone genuinely explain to me why they want to be outside the stadium when the trophy is lifted because I can’t quite understand it?
I get it makes you feel closer to the team but wanting to watch this on a mobile phone? Not for me.
Also if you think it’s going to be anything like the St Mirren game you are mental. The club and police will be putting up barriers this week without a doubt.
