You don’t tick friendlies, guess what, you shouldn’t get friendlies. Imagine the uproar if it was some pishy wee team and folk who didn’t tick got money taken against their wishes? Where are you Greg? Gonna be an interesting explanation.
That is LITERALLY the point of ticking the box
You tick the box to guarantee your ticket - if capacity is less than the number wanting one then you run a ballot
But you don't ballot outside of those who have ticked the box til after you have offered everyone who has ticked the box to guarantee a ticket an offer.
if the tickets had been distributed the other way round you might have had a point, the fact that those that ticked the actual box for Friendlies aren't getting the " Glamour " friendly is amateur at the very least ....... theres a reason why folk tick friendlies and theres reasons why fans " don't " tick friendliesThat's exactly what it is.
They have season ticket holders many of which didn't get to a game last season.
It simply wouldn't have been fair for those on CCCS to get both games and season ticket holders who didn't tick the box get nothing.
People are understandably annoyed with the actual way they've allocated them but I think getting the most season ticket holders into the games is fair.
Its like the ticket office knew the Olympics was starting this weekend and decided to crank their standard performance up a few notchesI’ve spent the last hour trying to get a Brighton ticket as got the email to say I was successful. I sign up for absolutely everything inc friendlies.
No matter what stand I try it keeps saying no seats available.
Now I am coming on here and seeing people are getting Real Madrid despite not even signing up for friendlies and I can’t even get one for bloody Brighton. Shambles
Response from SLO to a question about how some who ticked all friendlies are not in contention for Madrid. I don’t understand what he’s trying to say tbh

Where it will get really mucked up if people are excluded from the livi ballot because they had got a Madrid ticket which they hadn’t asked for!!
Why don’t you check your email on your phone ?The ticketing is a joke. I signed up for Friendlies and got an email less than 24 hours to kick off for Arsenal (which I never saw until after the game) at least give a bit of notice!! It’s 2021 can Rangers not send a text? So because I missed that I was out of both other games. Nice one.
Means you get allocated one game. If you dont then buy it, it doesnt mean you can get another game.
So if you got the Brighton email, thats your lot. You aint getting another game even if you dont take up the offer of a ticket for Brighton.
The ballot for the Livingston game is for season ticket holders only and doesn’t matter if you got a ticket for Brighton or Madrid.Where it will get really mucked up if people are excluded from the livi ballot because they had got a Madrid ticket which they hadn’t asked for!!
Makes no sense at allResponse from SLO to a question about how some who ticked all friendlies are not in contention for Madrid. I don’t understand what he’s trying to say tbh
Is in Spain drinking sangria?Response from SLO to a question about how some who ticked all friendlies are not in contention for Madrid. I don’t understand what he’s trying to say tbh
The ballot for madrid looks like it’s fir season tickets too, given the amount of people who have been allocated tickets without asking for themThe ballot for the Livingston game is for season ticket holders only and doesn’t matter if you got a ticket for Brighton or Madrid.
I would check the spam folder of your emails, you should definitely have one in that case unless you had a ticket for the Arsenal game.Silver MyGers, Friendlies and didn't get a ticket for Brighton or Real Madrid.
The cynic in me suspects that theyve given the folk that ticked the box the Brighton game because they maybe thought theyd struggle to punt Brighton tickets to non-CCCS punters 24 hours before the Madrid game.
Even that is a stretch, which makes me think its just ludicrous incompetence.
Absolutely not - and my position on the farce of the Real Madrid ballot is for everyone to seeI think here the numbers being talked about who tickets friendlies is about 9k. There should, on that basis be 3500 getting Real tickets beyond those who ticked it.
Does look like it's not be a perfect situation though from any point of view if those who ticked got Brighton as a priority then didn't get a Real option.
I can see why folk who are upset. They should have had the option to choose if they ticked it. I bet even a good number wouldn't have taken Real as the date didn't suit but the choice should have been there.
Can understand the club doing what they've done to get more people in to the games though. Maybe those who've lost out on Real should be given a priority in the Livi ballot as recompence?
If 9k ticked for friendlies, then everyone who ticked it should get the option of a madrid ticket. Simple as that.I think here the numbers being talked about who tickets friendlies is about 9k. There should, on that basis be 3500 getting Real tickets beyond those who ticked it.

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone act like that.It's clear what the club have done is offer everyone on the cccs a ticket (there seems to be a misconception that cccs are only being offered Brighton tickets which is not true) and then offered the remaining tickets to ST/My Gers members.
I get why people would prefer the Real Madrid game (obvs) but I think its fair that ST/My Gers members are offered a ticket.
People are acting like its folk off the street that are getting the Real tickets.
I don’t check my email every few hours. I have a work phone I check business emails on. My own phone is just mainly junk emails. I wouldn’t be expecting a notification of a ticket less than 24 hours before kick off.Why don’t you check your email on your phone ?
HeheheheChampagne Jill and Ray Liotta got one for anyone who care
That's not what has lead to a lot of disgruntled fans.I get everyone's desperate to get back into Ibrox especially for RM .it's a tough call with ballots, but at the end of the day it's going to be fellow bears getting in . Roll on Livingston meltdown.
This. It’s not so hard to understand. Fans who tick every box being shafted.That's not what has lead to a lot of disgruntled fans.
It's the fact that we've ticked the box (as requested every year) to see our 'reward' being handed out to others who hadn't.
You tick the box to guarantee a ticket - if the capacity is less than those who ticked the box then you run a ballot. If you miss out, then if the number who have missed out, is less than the next capacity - they are guaranteed a ticket, and all remaining tickets are balloted about those who have ticked the boxIt's clear what the club have done is offer everyone on the cccs a ticket (there seems to be a misconception that cccs are only being offered Brighton tickets which is not true) and then offered the remaining tickets to ST/My Gers members.

Go to the top right section with the three small lines - from the drop down select home matches ... you will get it from thereHow do I actually buy the ticket?
When I go to my account it says I have two things purchased today and I did put my card details in when I hit the friendlies button with my season ticket.
Does that mean I have got mine??
Silver MyGers, didn't tick friendlies and got RM.
I don't even want to go. I'm more looking forward to Livingston

So the loyalty scheme rewards those fans that are choosing not to be as loyal as others what a disgrace from rangers i got Brighton row b copland front i sit in row t and have over 30plus years buying my tickets for me and my children so thanks for the reward rangers what an embarrassment tge people who ticked friendlies should have had the option to choose but obviously that is too sensiblefucking pisstake as usual from the ticket office.

Surely someone at the club has seen the mess this has caused ?
Thanks I eventually found it.Go to the top right section with the three small lines - from the drop down select home matches ... you will get it from there
Aye it’s not people’s fault but as you said it’s a massive blowIt’s looking very possible despite signing up for everything as I do every season I’m not going to get a ticket for either of the matches this weekend.
Like everyone else, I am absolutely desperate to get back into the ground. I won’t start moaning that others have got tickets but it’s a bit of a blow seeing people get Real Madrid who didn’t even sign up for friendlies.
