What gives you the right to get a final ticket over myself, just because I managed to a Semifinal ticket? How is that fair, like you I'm a ST holder, like you I'm an RFC fan ... the only difference is I was lucky in a draw?? Aye right (!!) The only thing giving me the right is I'm on cccs. Even if I wasn't I'd argue this is correct, the club are catering for as many season ticket holders as possible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

weejoseph 2,773 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 How any cunt can say that excluding so many paid up season ticket holders from a ballot, because they were successful in a previous ballot is fair, is beyond me. This is coming from someone who was unsuccessful in the previous ballot. I have mates who were successful and have now been ruled out due to this.

It probably isn't fair but if that fan had just as much chance of getting tickets for the semis as much as the finals then that's just fucking life. It may not be fair on some who missed out twice but it's the luck of the draw,at least everyone had an equal chance. I don't see how anyone can dispute this. At the end of the day all I want is parity amongst fellow fans. I don't care how it's dressed up,excluding people from ballots just isn't on,its akin to something the tarriers would do. It's wrong. The only people I really see against this are people who missed out in the semi ballot and now cut about with that same sense of self entitlement people had when the semi was announced and we had people telling us how they had travelled 15 miles each way in the howling wind and rain against the mighty cowdenbeath so they pyoor deserved a ticket. It doesn't work like that. Everyone gets an equal chance irregardless of luck in previous rounds. Straying from that is fucking bullshit and something that better not become compulsory.

People need to remember that rangers have an allocation of 21k, 13 of which are taken by clubs and cccs so only 8k available. Rangers know they have 32k season ticket holders so roughly speaking have 18k who are wanting tickets for the semi final and final. 8k were lucky for semi and 10k were unlucky, so say out of that 10, 8k get final tickets then as a club they have managed to get 16k fans to hampden and only an unlucky 2k missing out on either game. That makes business sense, it offers greater opportunity to the whole fan base and shows they are wanting to please all season ticket holders.

We went to Hampden in the Petrofac cup with 47,000 fans hibs needed six home games to muster that amount, yet the sfa fuckwits split the ticket allocation, what a useless shower of wankers that are running Scottish football. I feel sorry for our season ticket holders who are being denied the opportunity of going to the cup final because of this lottery. The people who support the game, pay the bills, attract sponsorship etc should be looked after on the big occasions to do anything else is asking for problems Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Robot 21,149 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I think this is the fairest way for this season but I do believe there should be some type of points system in place for next season. To me the fans who go to every home and away game should be on a priority list. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll have to agree to disagree here, I think it's ridiculously unfair. If they wanted to do that, then make it clear from the outset ... if you get a ticket for one, you won't get one for the other, to just announce it is wrong & unfair Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brubear 2,920 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I said this before when the subject was first mentioned that even though I did not get a ticket for the semi final I actually do not think this is fair. All ST holders had an equal chance of being lucky for the semi nand should all get the same chance for the final. Admittedly this has greatly increaded my chance of the final ticket, but still can't get my head round why the club have done this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No of course they're not! All of their ST holders can get a ticket or two, or three each, whilst Rangers fans, who've been to every game this season, including cup games, could miss out, that is NOT right. The ticket allocation for the final should be based on your average home attendances, or how many ST holders each club have, making sure that those fans that go to the games, in all weathers, don't miss out. What the fuck has your crowds against alloa or Morton in the championship got to do with the Scottish cup final at Hampden? The match is held at a neutral venue for a reason. If it should favour the countries two biggest clubs then fuck it just have it at Ibrox or park head if the rangers or sellick are involved. If your fans are missing out blame SFA for... a) keeping 10,000 back for the suits b) having such a shitey under sized national stadium. BTW these loyal loyal season ticket holders missing out. How come a lot were posted missing against likes of St Johnstone and Dundee..? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also do you think calling us 'the Rangers' infuriates us? We've been the Rangers since the 1900s. Hibs however have had about 4 names and did die for two years If you know your history Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
