Old Firm allocations likely to remain the same this season

[mdingwall]

There have been rumours about increases but I believe that is unlikely.

 

[GovanFront4]

Should be a couple thousand each. Yes the atmosphere is brilliant when we are winning, but there is no doubt that it dilutes the whole atmosphere in general.

 

[DerekSSR]

Babies in the boardroom

 

[Papa_Sasac]

Give them fùck all.

 

[Puggy]

That’s good, 700 of them is 700 too many.

 

[Karky Madoolla]

The Board can get to fk if they even contemplate giving those rat bastards anymore of an allocation. One of them in our stadium is far too many. Utter vermin.

 

[Coplandbear]

Give them nothing would be my preferable option.

 

[Sticky Fingers]

Give them nothing, and in return we take nothing. It’s better to not have them in our Home than to have them come and spill their honking, rancid bile in our presence.

Don’t let any of them in. That’s my personal stance.

 

[55isAlive]

@mdingwall Do you know if talks between the clubs did take place regarding this?

 

[DerekSSR]

How did folk survive this fixture before 2017?

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

Give them nothing.

 

[1872RFC]

Good news.

Never understood why some of our support enjoy attend their ground and thus financially supporting the biggest peado ring in Scotland.

 

[Bluetou]

They only get the whole Broomloan when we get the whole stand at their midden.

 

[RFC80UK]

Every game needs away fans. Even the scum. So folk saying give none isn’t right, we need them in our stadium to really rub it in when we’re winning. I think most folk who don’t want them in stadium are worried we will lose and they will sing their shitey songs proud.

 

[The_Degan]

Imagine wanting to go to Rangers biggest away day to support Rangers utter madness .

 

[ForzaLaudrup]

I don’t really understand why this is constantly brought up?

Both clubs have made the decision, that decision works for both clubs as it means they can have more of their own fans in the ground for the game.

I really fail to see the issue here

It’s becoming very boring and tedious

What happens to those bears with STs for the Broomloan?

 

[Brant Hurley]

700 republican rheptiles in Ibrox is plenty.

 

[BillyBoys]

We won games against them mate before then that's why.

Our board are a rid neck, get the euro allocation signed off and stop killing the away support.

 

[Crown_Defender]

Euro away allocation is what it should go to. Seems the most sensible compromise as the support is divided in this one. Nothing new I know.

 

[sprally]

It should be percentage of capacity or nothing.

 

[The Predator]

Any increase in tickets should be on an agreed percentage basis of the stadium capacity.

The allocations have never been right on that basis.

 

[DarthVader]

We salute you @Papasmurf

 

[Ally’s Golden Boot]

They only get the whole Broomloan when we get the whole stand at their midden.

It will never return to the full Broomloan and rightfully so, however, they should receive the European allocation IMO.

This all started from fannies on both sides getting upset at words to some songs, the fixture will no longer be viewed as one of the best in the world in years to come.

 

[nelster]

How did folk survive this fixture before 2017?

With Celtic having an advantage followed by Barry Ferguson stating he missed having an entire Celtic stand behind the Rangers goalkeeper.

Been done to death.

 

[prower]

Aside from the general feelings, I don't really see how increasing their allocation would be possible with the amount of season ticket holders we have. Certain season tickets used to be sold excluding the old firm games but not anymore

 

[Allovereurope]

We salute you @Papasmurf

No we don’t.

We manage for European ties

Because they know having the full stand behind the goal in the Broomloan gave them an advantage that we didn't have in their pit. The atmosphere is just the excuse they're giving to try & regain that.

We have bigger away allocations for Europe without that being an issue, presumably it would be the same for a domestic game?

Only if you enjoy pro IRA tunes,give them %^*& all.

Filling peados coffers isn't for everyone. To each their own.

Euro games aren't on the season ticket, are they?

 

[The Goalie]

There have been rumours about increases but I believe that is unlikely.

Good.

 

[Boydy's Pearly Whites]

800 in that corner is plenty.
They should never ever be allowed to sit behind our goal again.

 

[DarthVader]

No we don’t.

More bears get to attend Old Firm games each season. What's not to like?

 

[Harbour Bear]

I personally would not complain at giving them the larger Euro allocation some get off us.

But I do see the issue from all sides

 

[TheFantasticNinetiesFox]

Get it back to the way it was. The whole tribal atmosphere at an Old Firm derby is what made it one of the greatest matches on the planet. In addition, it can only help to increase our tv deal, as the production value of having the two sets of fans in the ground with all the colour, the noise and the frenzy is also a big reason why so many neutrals tune in.

 

[SuperGers07]

Their fans shouldn’t be allowed in. Ever. End of

Or get punted from their seats to accommodate the bastards

 

[Sir Know it All]

fantastic,

great to see as many Bears as possible in.... regular match day going punters.... who start their day at the Crowne Plaza

 

[scottmac]

Euro games aren't on the season ticket, are they?

I don't believe anybody with a season ticket would miss out, we also give UEFA tickets outside of the away allocation and every season ticket holder has the chance to purchase a ticket. I couldn't care less if black rooster or boxt etc don't get tickets at Ibrox if it meant going to a Euro allocation for these games.

 

[Simply a Bear]

I've said before, I wouldn't even let their team into the stadium to change.

 

[NegrisLob]

If we can sell as many season tickets as we can then we should only be affording them the bare minimum of what's left.

I'm not up for season ticket holders having to move for anyone really.

 

[gm_06]

Good, is what it is and shouldn't need to be discussed every time a game comes round, it's just boring now.

 

[EndOfDays]

Excellent news.

 

[RobbenHood]

Aye it’s really hard to understand why fans would want to go and support the team against our rivals away from home

 

[RobbenHood]

No but every ST could buy their ticket if they wanted
