Kilmarnock replay £27

[Rich Uncle Skeleton]

Very steep, wonder if this was at Kilmarnock's insistence again.

 

[Roger Smith Loyal]

Someone mentioned in another thread that any replays have to be priced the same as the original tie.

Kilmarnock will have made an absolutely fortune from us this season.

 

[SHUNTER]

Think £20 would have pretty much guaranteed a sell out.

Still expecting a healthy crowd. Public sale league games sell out so quickly these days, so this a chance for more people to get along.

I'm sure this happened a few years back with Killie and Rangers wanted to reduce the prices but they didn't agree to it, crowd was barely five figures.

"Ticket prices are Adult £27.00, Concessions £19.00 (over 65s, 16-17year olds) & Juveniles £10.00."

I would have thought £20 would have been plenty.

I don't expect much more than 30-35k for the replay to be honest. Mainly due to it being midweek and another game against Kilmarnock.

Kilmarnock wanted to charge the full top tier price. Both clubs have to agree though. Problem Rangers had was that if they don't accept the price KIllie want then it revert to the to tier price anyway,

 

[BrooklynBlue]

That is expensive. Disappointing.

 

[Davieblue1977]

Bit steep

 

[Bowery Boy]

Scandalous

 

[JeffreySpaulding]

I was thinking about heading along but think I'll just catch it on Rangers TV.

 

[Rich Uncle Skeleton]

Kilmarnock's unwillingness to agree to cut-price tickets and live television coverage played a part in an echoing Ibrox, but this was still the lowest crowd for a competitive game here for a considerable time at just 13,215.

It was a lot worse having to pay that to watch a game on a artificial pitch.

That said, us charging the same is a bit steep IMO, especially with the amount of money we've paid this season to follow the club. I always try and compare it to other games and a few weeks ago, my ticket for Chelsea v Spurs in the Semi of the League Cup final was £25. And that was in the posh stand as well (all stands the same price)

I'll always pay what Rangers want me to so i'm a bit of a walking contradiction but for others I totally understand why they wouldn't pay it. Should be a bit lower IMO.

I'm pretty sure the ticket price has to be agreed between the clubs and have a vague recollection also that ticket prices for replays have to be the same (where possible) as they were for the initial tie.

 

[SDF]

TBF to the club they've been pretty good with the domestic cup prices over the past few seasons so I've no doubt Killie have wanted their bigger price.

Myself, I simply can't justify paying £27 for it this month.

 

[kclarkhall]

That is very steep for a mid week cup replay.

 

[son of le guen]

When is the public sale can't find details anywhere?

 

[DougieJones]

Out of order IMO. 27 notes to see the likes of Kirk Broadfoot and Alan Dicker rolling up!

2011

Rangers wanted £13
Kilmarnock wanted £20

We had to agree to Kilmarnock price otherwise league prices

Game was just after New Year on a Monday night live on BBC

Friday 15th

 

[Gregybear]

£27 seems a bit steep for me..... Once we take the boy it becomes a very expensive night

 

[AirthBear]

Kilmarnock will be well aware of how many we have on Cccs and will be greedy for the extra funds a replay gives them.
They will have pushed for as a high a ticket price as possible, but at least I'll be able to find my seat number next Wednesday.

 

[Sasa-]

That's ridiculous for a replay against a team we'll be playing 7 times this season. Especially on a Wednesday night when it'll be freezing no doubt.

 

[Bolt]

Seem someone post saying Killie will be due to make near £1 million from out games alone this season. 4 games at rugby Park and 50% of an Ibrox gate.

Maybe now they can afford to run with a grass pitch again?

 

[rangeral]

Who sets the price for the cup games?

The club's do if no agreement then SFA will set using league prices

Got the supporters club email at 12.25.

I remember that game.

Wasn't going to go to it so watched it on TV. Was on BBC 1 IIRC.

 

[hammer17]

Who sets the price for the cup games?

Both clubs come to a agreement

 

[SDF]

2011

Rangers wanted £13
Kilmarnock wanted £20

Game was just after New Year on a Monday night live on BBC

It was £19 for a 12:30 Saturday kick off three years ago against the same opposition.

A near 33% rise in three years for a midweek kick off time is simply ludicrous.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

The club's do if no agreement then SFA will set using league prices

@rangeral am I correct that the replay has to be priced as near as possible the prices applied in the first tie?

I see they are online now. But I was looking for 2 together but no luck

Thanks for the info.

 

[jigster]

an increased away allocation ???

 

[Coop1872]

SLO confirmed on Twitter.

And is receiving a lot of unhappy replies. If this is down to Kilmarnock I hope the club come out and make this clear.

 

[felix_nieto]

Hamilton tickets arrived the other day, £22 for myself & £12 for my dad. Much more reasonable.

Killie are at it.

That said, I picked up two tickets for Dens earlier in the season from their club shop, £30 a pop no concessions.

Most clubs rob us blind.

 

[Earl of Leven]

£27?

 

[Bluebrox]

Funding this mob to the tune of best part of £1m in ticket sales this season makes me sick.

Despicable club.

 

[Valley Bluenose]

From the SFAs rules for the Scottish Cup:

35. Minimum Charge for Admission

Subject to a minimum adult non concessionary charge for admission to matches in the Preliminary Round (if applicable), Round One, Round Two and Round Three, of £5, and of £8 for matches in subsequent Rounds excluding the Semi-Final and Final Ties, the charges for admission shall be arranged by the competing clubs. If they are unable to agree, the charges which are normally made for the regular fixtures of the club at whose ground the match is to be played, will apply.

 

[Superrangers]

The club's do if no agreement then SFA will set using league prices

The system is clearly flawed, like everything else in Scottish football, Rangers aside.

 

[RFC417]

Steep but no surprise it is the same price as the original game.

Included on my ST thankfully, so no extra outlay.

 

[Jjbscotty]

Is it on premier sports?

 

[Stanley Yelnats]

£27 is a rip off. Killie should be ashamed, it’s only going to diminish their away support also.

 

[superallythe2nd]

Fùck sake

 

[TPP]

That’s f’innmental

 

[rangeral]

@rangeral am I correct that the replay has to be priced as near as possible the prices applied in the first tie?

Yes they do the price should be agreed to the 1st game taking place
