No the clubs don’t get points they are banded at the beginning of the season by how many season ticket holders they have so some will take every home match tickets and some won’t but the catagories won’t change.Do the RSCs get retrospective points for purchase history in your scenario? Given RSCs have bought match to match tickets for years?
If so, they’ll have high points in the hypothetical scenario
Same as mygers

You’ve misunderstood my post mate. I know how bus categories work - top 15% A+ etc with no benchmark number set in stone to try and avoid buses gaming it
My response was in jest in relation to previous points buses would’ve accrued for getting tickets through the RSC sale for home games if the club just decided not to give buses tickets any more

Euro allocation at both grounds for next season is what I'm making this up as I need attention:
Has it been confirmed that lot or not taking a allocation

We can’t give the bus company a definite on the size required, it’s not exactly helpful

The longer this goes on the more I’m thinking that some sort of back and forth dialogue is going on between the clubs.

I have been thinking that myself because allocation are usually out already and tickets sorted too, probably see both fans being in the grounds next season but getting 2000 or more tickets

We would need a legal document saying we will get tickets for the last OF game.
Can’t trust they rat bastards.

this needs brought up at the agm, although i dont agree with the arrangement in place, im sure the people who petitioned the club about cutting the allocation didn’t think the club would use it to shaft the ordinary fan out of going with prices out of there range to be used for hospitality. All tickets should be split between the busses and people on mygers. If it was about looking after our own fans first none should be siphoned away from they 2.
The club have signed contracts with sponsors and partners which include ticket provision for Celtic games at Ibrox. Hopefully they haven't signed contracts to provide off-site hospitality.
This is what i reckon. Not releasing there tickets without legal or spfl guarantee of tickets at their midden
Got the same on monday

They didn’t say that at the time, here’s what they said.
A statement on Rangers' official club website read: 'Our supporters will always come first and as many of them as practically possible must be accommodated.
'That is why the Club has decided on an overall increase in the total number of season tickets available to our supporters to what will be a historical record.
'A further announcement on the final new ticket allocation will shortly be made available on the club's website.
'An unfortunate consequence of putting our supporters first is that this increased demand negatively impacts on the number of tickets which will be allocated to visiting teams.
'This means all visiting fans will now be situated in the corner between the Broomloan and Sandy Jardine Stands.
'We believe that this is the best possible outcome after considering the unprecedented levels of support from Rangers fans.'
i think they're just playing silly buggers and the tickets will be returned but very last minute ...... if they now accept an allocation it's almost like admitting their gripes were a sham from the start
I’m sure we’d have set a deadline and it’ll have passed by now. There has to be some sorta talks on going for this.
It’ll be European allocations from next season.

Is it not normally around 10 days before a match day? Seen 10 days mentioned before
I’m not sure but add in Easter there’s no way we don’t know what’s going on.
Why do people keep saying this? There has been absolutely nothing said to indicate that this will be the case.
They will accept anything we give them
There’s not a chance in hell that they will want to play next week without any of their fans in the stadium
The sticking point could be Rangers insisting on similar allocation at the piggery after they cited safety concerns when they denied us any the last time
It’s not an opinion I’ve been told that and I trust the source.
I am also told tonight celtic had meeting last night and they getting 2250 tickets

For the game on the 7th? No they 100% are not.
Ive heard nothing regarding the upcoming game but I’d assume any increase would be from next season.

How will the planned upgrades for a disabled section in the Broomloan be affected by giving them 2500 seats?
Not many options at all to move any season ticket holders who will be there once its eventually ready.

So we'll be getting 3000 tickets for the piggery. Don't think so.
No idea but I’m sure they’ll have planned for that with European allocations in mind.
Guessing It’ll be the same number at both grounds

So they dictate the terms again and we fall into line.
Aye that’s it

It was on Ibrox noise about both clubs agreeing 2750 tickets for both games and that will include the split fixture if its at pedo dome but surley the borad isn't falling into their trap yet again but looks that way, i don't know if thats true, its a waiting game for now, just wish the club would let supporters clubs know also whats the deal with website selling tickets for £400 or £500 odd i seen it on that seatpick surley if they get tickets how are they getting them because they aren't a sponsor or something to do with the club probably just someone trying to make a few quid out of it, for old firm matches tickets should go till fans, end off!!
To suggest we give them this a week before the game is bullshit and is never going to happen
BF 5 & BR 5 would need to be emptied of our own supporters and this just isn’t going to happen as every othe part of the ground is sold out - not going to happen especially at short notice

Nice timing with Union Bears moving to Copland means BF1 and BR1 would be the perfect spot. No safety concerns having them in the same stand as the UB

No.
Ours would have less than 50% season ticket holders.

I am quite open that we should have none of them at Ibrox, but I'm also a realist that in this day and age of commercialism, Sky will be putting pressure on the SPFL and both Cubs to come to some settlement to break this deadlock.

That quite surprises me

I’m not surprised that it quite surprises you.
We have 42 paid up members with 16 season ticket holders. We work hard under difficult financial constraints to provide buses and tickets, so many non season ticket club members can get to Ibrox as often as possible.
As well as providing for non member season ticket holders to get transport too.
We have 5/6 members between 16-21 who have hardly missed a game since Covid who are all myGers members but can’t get a season ticket and who rely on us to scramble tickets from all available avenues.

Was always going to be the case eventually as it dilutes the game, as much as some want to pretend it doesn’t. Also suspect sponsors/corporates pressuring both clubs to resolve it too
