sbcmfc Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Seeing as the discussion of this has been going on in another thread, that should probably be locked, thought the game deserved it's own... Got my ticket for Sunday. Rangers as yet to confirm Motherwell's allocation for Thursday, although I don't think I can make it anyway. As someone said on the 'well site, it will either be one of the best, or one of the darkest days in our recent history. A lot of talk about the potential for bother too, with Rangers fans apparently snapping up tickets in the motherwell end. At least one pub in motherwell is closing at 3pm. Whether it be Rangers fans not taking well to the result, or away fans in the home end goading home fans there's certainly potential for bother. (Although Rangers fans are normally pretty gracious in victory or defeat ) Really looking forward to it! Hope it has an edge to it without going to far. Expect Nicky law to take absolute pelters!

ShedTA Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Looking forward to it. Have enjoyed the play offs so far - football hasn't been great but good viewing anyway even for neutrals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddardStark Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I think the away allocation will be 950. Expect this match to sell out despite an evening KO. For next Sunday a lot depends on Thursday night's result. I cant see it being anything other than a very close tie. Perhaps it will go all the way to pens.

sbcmfc Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 Reckon motherwell need to keep it tight at ibrox. If motherwell can avoid defeat at ibrox, I think they'll win, but there's very little away form to suggest that we can do that. We need to take our chances and show the cutting edge that Hibs didn't, and hopefull avoid getting in a situation where Rangers have a lead to defend and can kill the game. I watched Preston destroy Swindon last night by just being ruthless in front of goal. At HT both teams had 4 shots at goal, Swindon had over 60% possesion and the whole 1st half was played in prestons half. Half time score 3-0 Preston.

I think motherwell are asking for 2000, in return for the 4800 they're giving rangers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donaldo87 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Given our away record all we can ask is still to be in it on Sunday. Any more than a 1 goal deficit and we won't be able to turn it around. Mon lets do this!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TartanTeddy Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I think motherwell are asking for 2000, in return for the 4800 they're giving rangers. Would be nice to think common sense would prevail and Rangers offer the 2000 tickets - also makes for a better atmosphere in the ground. Hope the suggestion that there will be bother at Fir Park comes to nothing but I have to admit that the playoff crowd has had a really high percentage of zoomers going along - guess the downside of £5 tickets and a free for all. Expecting both games to be close and (obviously) hoping we can take a lead to Motherwell from the first leg! TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenAngus Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Just can't see Motherwell being mentally tough enough unfortunately. Comfortable home win in the first leg and a non event in the second leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus_Young Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I would echo the sentiments above, hope there is no bother and that Motherwell are given 2000 tickets. Reduced allocations of away fans in the previous round was farcical given neither game sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donaldo87 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Do have to wonder why it's still not been confirmed and it's only 80 hours away. My gut is Rangers want to give us minimum and maybe just maybe we're showing a wee bit of spine for once... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRBear Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Come on gers couple of goals on Thursday to take to FH. See a number of bears are buying tickets for the main stand, potential for a bit of a mad one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donaldo87 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Rumour has it we asked for 2000 in return for the south stand and they've said naw and now we're going to give them a lot less.

Donaldo87 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 950 tickets confirmed 1500 given to Rangers. No tickets on sale for Fir Park now unless you have a season ticket or are a well society member. Harsh but has to be done I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complete farce that folk who want to go to the game can't go with 1000s of empty seats and I do have sympathy for the decent Rangers fans that won't get to go as a result of this, but completely correct decision by MFC. Trolololololo we are motherwell!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) 950 tickets confirmed 1500 given to Rangers. No tickets on sale for Fir Park now unless you have a season ticket or are a well society member. Harsh but has to be done I guess Apparently you can buy if you're on the database, so anyone who has been to an all ticket match or bought from the ticket office previously will be ok. Play-off Final Ticketing Arrangements Ticket details for the Play-off Final against Rangers can now been confirmed. After discussions between both clubs, Motherwell fans have been allocated 950 tickets for Ibrox for Thursday nights game, priced at £5. These will be sold from 3.30pm today on a first come, first served basis, with the modest number of fans who have already renewed their 2015/16 season ticket guaranteed a ticket. For the 2nd leg, Rangers have been allocated 1,500 tickets for the Maxim Office Park South Stand. These will be delivered to Rangers today (Monday), who will distribute via their normal channels. Home tickets, priced at £10 for adults and £5 for concessions, are still on sale but will now only be available to Season Ticket holders, Well Society members or 'Well fans who are on the club's ticketing database and have purchased home end tickets before. Any Motherwell fans wishing to buy tickets for the home end, should do so by bringing their 2014/15 season ticket or Well Society membership card and some sort of photo ID, a maximum of three tickets per Season Ticket / Society member. Any Motherwell fan who isnt either a Season Ticket holder or a Well Society member or isnt registered on the club system for previous home end ticket purchases, should contact a friend, family member or colleague who is, in order to obtain a ticket. Well fans should note that they are responsible for any tickets they purchase. Edited May 25, 2015 by sbcmfc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Och Aye Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Know 3 Rangers fans mentioning revenge for this match. Apparently it's our fault they were demoted as we voted them down. I'm pretty pessimistic about the outcome but if we win I may break a habit of a lifetime and really rub it right in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
