Official Compromise reached over Old firm ticketing - SPFL announcement

[bluetonic]

It would impact a lot more of our season ticket holders regarding having to be relocated, permanently or otherwise, but I can't help but think it might be better if the Away area was on the BR1/BF1 side of the Broomloan Stand rather than as shown below.

Agreed , we’re essentially splitting our support to place them there, stick them in BF1 where they cannot be seen ( on TV) because sure as hell thats where we will be placed at the cesspit.

 

[DivRFC]

I disagree with that most on our supporters bus wanted them kept away

Must be a dry bus.

 

[rangeral]

While I welcome it

Always baffled me that we were told no season ticket holder would miss out!

 

[PaulieGualtieri]

SPFL statement says otherwise.

More misinformation.

Maybe, hopefully. Just what I was told by a jurno I know. Not bothered either way, just happy it’s sorted

 

[Leo_Ger]

Because having fans increases the likelihood of us winning. Our record there has been appalling.

I probably won’t get a ticket for a number of years, definitely wouldn’t have since this nonsense was introduced but I’ve always found it weird that elements of our support focus on ‘them in our stadium’ rather than ‘us supporting our team at their stadium’

That’s before you even consider all the aspects about better atmospheres and so on, which are secondary.

I don't think it was any better in recent history before the allocation was changed.

 

[DerekSSR]

So how do we predict Rangers will make a mess of the ticketing for this?

 

[ThreestripeS]

Wonder if we still need to be in their ground hours before kick off ?
If we are it better be the same when they roll up at Ibrox.

 

[Redlion no 8]

Not happy with this. Unless we can shift them over to where UB sit. Top and bottom of the broomy. Would prob be one stairwell. Don’t think it be to hard to channel those animals in an hour before the ppl & after.

 

[Est1872]

So how do we predict Rangers will make a mess of the ticketing for this?

Bottom up

 

[stein and johnston]

Don't see why it should automatically be the Broomloan ST holders who miss out.

Should be shared round every season ticket holder on a rolling basis

Seems a sensible solution.
But I can’t see it going down well with season ticket holders elsewhere in the stadium.
I might be wrong though.

 

[Big Joke New]

Celtic and their fans wanted the whole broomloan or nothing so that'll be 1 out of 4

No that's what they said they wanted. Big difference..

 

[coinflipper]

They should get 800 tickets like every other team, what entitles them to 5% of the stadium above the likes of Aberdeen, Hibs, or hearts?

 

[Overanout]

Email received,

Rangers FC notes the SPFL’s confirmation regarding future Old Firm allocations at both Ibrox and Parkhead. As the changes will follow the model we use at Ibrox for our UEFA European matches, this will affect some of our supporters in the Broomloan Stand and we regret to inform you that your season ticket seat has been affected by this change. While this will not affect the two remaining league derbies this season, from next season, both clubs will be required to provide five per-cent of their stadia to the away team for Old Firm games only. We understand that this change to your seat will be disappointing, but we want to reassure you that creating alternative options has been a priority. These options are:​

Option 1 You can renew your 2024/25 season ticket to exclude home matches against Celtic at a price discounted by £106, and keep your current seat. You will also receive ticket priority for Celtic tickets on a match by match basis as they come available.​

​

Option 2 You can select a new seat currently available within the stadium that will include home matches against Celtic. Seats will be allocated on a first come, first served basis​

 

[BrooklynBlue]

the 1st OF next season is at the piggery. If they dont give us the allocation they are required to, we do the same when they come to Ibrox.

We’ll lose out in numbers because of how their ground is set up, hence the “around 5%” - it’s a deliberate smudging in an official statement.

We’ve caved again.

 

[CLSFB]

That will be the compromise. All tiers will get a ballot and so they should with a 3000 allocation

Around 1000 will end up being kept for club use out of that too

No chance this should only be for gold mygers and gold mygers only. Nonsense to suggest someone on bronze or silver should even have a chance for this.

 

[ThreestripeS]

Absolute bollox.

Our fans kicked out for that shower of low life scum.

They say the same about us and round and round we go.

 

[The Logan Roy Experience]

Fucking shambles. Another horrendous decision by the current Rangers board.

The vermin should never be back in Ibrox ever again.

Reading the wording of the rangers statement , there was no choice given the pressure to comply with the premiership rules on away fans and from the Sky TV overlords

Although given how little we get from Sky, how I’d love for them to be told to GTF

If only the other clubs hadn’t bottled it when the proposition of setting up own league broadcasting deal / channel

 

[BrooklynBlue]

The official statement from Rangers. Unless “alternative seating arrangements” means watching it in their house then I don’t get why you think people won’t be at the game.

That’s not what the emails are saying.

 

[ThreestripeS]

We’ll lose out in numbers because of how their ground is set up, hence the “around 5%” - it’s a deliberate smudging in an official statement.

We’ve caved again.

Don't talk pish did they get the full broomloan?

 

[Empire]

That’s not what the emails are saying.

What are the emails saying? Have you received one?

 

[Liviger1984]

Better be top down anoll

Roughly how many gold mygers members is there?

 

[DerekSSR]

Fucking shambles. Another horrendous decision by the current Rangers board.

The vermin should never be back in Ibrox ever again.

Did you even read it?

 

[The Goalie]

time will tell .

Caving in would have been giving them what they demanded , the whole Broomloan again

 

[Lord Summerisle]

Most places – Sky and The Daily Record, for example – are reporting it as around 2,500 of them at Ibrox and 3,000 of us at the Piggery.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Bottom up

Ha ha, imaging if, as a gesture of goodwill, they said all DhimDome tickets would go to those in Bronze. Be a few rapid changes of opinion on here I'd warrant.

And no I'm not seriously suggesting it would ever happen. Just highlighting that everyone will want what's best for them personally.

 

[BillHastings]

The club have to stick with this being gold members only. Even if it’s 1 tickets a season guaranteed for the 2 fixtures this is a reward for being in gold and should be 100% gold only.

Are you on gold by any chance

 

[ALADOU34]

Absolute disgrace once again our board has buckled under the pressure

 

[PaulieGualtieri]

Roughly how many gold mygers members is there?

3600ish

 

[tr0211]

Only losers in this situation are Non ST MyGers members. Cant imagine there will be any tickets set aside for members so that they can be accommodated.

 

[Bluebluecee]

Disgusting.

Losing your seat to accommodate a scumbag should not be allowed our board treat us like shite this would never happen at their shit hole

 

[Est1872]

Roughly how many gold mygers members is there?

3,639 at last update

 

[Earth Worm Jim]

Genuinely can't understand anyone criticizing the club or board here

It's a great result and about time both clubs came to their senses

 

[Big Hepy]

So how do we predict Rangers will make a mess of the ticketing for this?

Should be a ballot.

 

[Big Joke New]

They should get 800 tickets like every other team, what entitles them to 5% of the stadium above the likes of Aberdeen, Hibs, or hearts?

That is a good point. This might result in those teams demanding equal treatment. Maybe some ST holders are in for a bigger shock than they think. Which isn't great tbh. I'm not affected but would be pissed off if I was.

 

[Gringotts Dragon]

No chance this should only be for gold mygers and gold mygers only. Nonsense to suggest someone on bronze or silver should even have a chance for this.

I disagree. With an allocation that size it shouldn’t be gold only

 

[ThreestripeS]

Absolute disgrace once again our board has buckled under the pressure

Pressure from who ?
Did you read it?

 

[si72]

Filth get more tickets at the expense of some ST holders not guaranteed to be there is fucking rotten.

 

[Herman]

Must be a dry bus.

It’s certainly not and why would being pished have a bearing on their views

 

[Jon Snow]

Did you even read it?

I did. Don’t care what broadcasters, the league or anyone else has to say. I don’t want to see thousands of paedophile supporters in Ibrox and have no idea why anyone would want to go to their cesspit of child abuse either.

%^*& them and %^*& their supporters.

 

[Tpol_rfc]

Common sense at fucking last.

I missed one game there between 2004-2017 or whenever it was they reduced the allocations. I’ve been to one game since, the 1-1 draw when sakala scored. It’s been ridiculous.

A proper atmosphere there now and not they cunts having it all their own way. Bring it on

Should only be available to gold MyGers members aswell.

Didn't take too many posts before the "only gold Mygers" came in

 

[Papasmurf]

They say the same about us and round and round we go.

I don’t care what they say about us.

I’m happy to be morally superior to a group of people who support terrorism, protect paedophiles and hate everything about us.

It boils down to that for me.

 

[HeyBert]

No chance this should only be for gold mygers and gold mygers only. Nonsense to suggest someone on bronze or silver should even have a chance for this.

We’ll see

 

[Gringotts Dragon]

Seen an email from a friend in BF5 who’s been told he’ll be affected. Friend in BF2 saying he’s fine

 

[Crispy Bacon]

Get the “better be top down” brigade to feck.

It should be done balloted like every other ticket or else it becomes a closed shop.

And that’s from someone in gold

 

[Gers55]

Ha ha, imaging if, as a gesture of goodwill, they said all DhimDome tickets would go to those in Bronze. Be a few rapid changes of opinion on here I'd warrant.

And no I'm not seriously suggesting it would ever happen. Just highlighting that everyone will want what's best for them personally.

Or all tickets for games at their dump are offered to the ST holders being moved from their seats in the Broomloan to accommodate more of them in Ibrox.

See how that would go down.

 

[Northampton_Loyalist]

Maybe season ticket holders that miss out at home are guaranteed one away ticket at their midden as recompense?

 

[No.8MK3]

If it’s 5%, then fine.

If it’s the same numbers at both grounds, then we’ve got a poor deal.

You think?

Ffs half the tickets we will get for that shitehole will be restricted view! Our support will stay stuck in a corner miles away from the pitch while we give them premium seats. Our support will be attacked / abused with little to no protection as our players are!

They ll get the mentally challenged barrier up and the rest of us will be unable to walk around the stadium as we normally do which leads to crushing at Copland / Main Stand.

We have supporters who buy season tickets who are being moved or even worse not able to attend these games!

Shafted yet again by these mentally challenged bastards!!

 

[Overanout]

Didn't take too many posts before the "only gold Mygers" came in

All the high fiving today will be replaced with tantrums when silver and bronze get parkhead tickets.

 

[Rangersnumberfour]

I’ve seen us wreck their stadium plenty of times particularly the toilets. Both clubs pay for the damage that’s done.

I’ll tell you the positive, guys that follow their club will now be able to get a ticket for the piggery again. Rangers will now have 3000 fans making noise at the piggery instead of they horrible terrorist sympathising cunts having it their own way and only hearing their shite on the tele.

You know that argument equates to…

They will have 3000 horrible terrorist sympathising cunts in our stadium

 

[Herman]

Pressure from who ?
Did you read it?

Tells you in the statement league, broadcast partners and obviously the other club
