Debian Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 I still think it's unfair that have to go to Hampden. I'd rather a 67k sell out at Murrayfield against the other Anti Neil Lennon mob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s simply another fucking pathetic and petty move by the morons in charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debian Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Why not give Aberdeen half and ask for the cash up front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 To be fair, while it’s frustrating to hold back the best seats, for segregation etc. It’s the only way to do it really. Means the guys who actually go to games will all be in the worst seats though. Will Aberdeen sell 20,000+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems strange that it hasnt really been an issue for the last what, 20-25 years since Hampden was redeveloped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theweestevie Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 For semi finals that don't sell out I wish they would open a neutral section, even if it was just pay at the gate on the day. If I had nothing else on i would definitely pop along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveyDenoon Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 So.... Any Aberdeen fan who wants a decent seat in the north stand instead of behind the goals needs to wait until they get the extra ticket allocation. Only they won’t get the extra tickets because people aren’t buying the shite seats. So enough people will need to buy the shite seats to ensure they can get an allocation for the decent seats. But then they’ll have already bought their ticket. For a shite seat. Perfectly logical. If you are an idiot. Now I see why the SPFL went with this idea.

It’s yet more nonsense and only serves to highlight yet further their incompetence. It shouldn’t make any difference to the authorities which set of supporters buy the tickets so split the stadium in half, charge both teams up front and away we go.

DoonTheSlope Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Where’s the neutrality in giving Rangers a bigger initial allocation? Not only are Rangers being given more tickets but they are also being given their usual neutral dressing room The rest of Scottish football need to find a bit of backbone and stand up for what’s right The SFA and SPFL need stripped from top to bottom. They best way to do that is simply boycott all matches. It will never happen though as far too many people in this country think they are better than the next man and want everyone to think they are a more loyal supporter Scottish football fans are our own worst enemies. We’ve been taken for granted for decades for have been happy to do so, and will be happy to be shafted for many more decades to come Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve been taken for granted for decades for have been happy to do so, and will be happy to be shafted for many more decades to come I don't think giving Rangers an initial allocation of more than Aberdeen is unfair, providing it is no more than 50% of the total allocation. Rangers will sell that immediately, so they would need the extra allocation straight away (there are around 28k season ticket holders who are signed up to get tickets for cup games automatically and that's before the supports clubs and club sponsors etc get there tickets). With regards to the way the tickets are sold in batches selling the south stand first, I imagine it's because thete are more seats there which are considered prime seats than there would be in the north stand (as much as everyone knows the north stand is significantly better) Edited October 7, 2018 by theweestevie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
