ready1873 3,885 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Anyone else think it's been a bit of a mess?Some supporters queued from early on the 13th, some even camped out, thinking they may struggle to utilise their ST right if they had waited. In actual fact you could have waited a couple of weeks before getting it, I only got mine on Tuesday.The site said there would be some released to half/quarter ST holders yet I don't think it ever happened? According to a fella I spoke to on the phone on Tuesday there is a fair amount left and they could be switched to Ibrox on Saturday.Supporters clubs got shafted a bit too.

Smile 26,606 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Not really most scrambling for tickets now were happy so see us with hardly any support in the previous rounds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mgg 3,766 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 If they had told you to wait till Tuesday and they all sold out in the first day, would you be happy? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsox1 1,361 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I got mine fine. I`m not really bothered about the ones wanting a ticket now as I see most as just being big game hunters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know supporters who didn't buy a ST (not necessarily as a protest) and have attended most games and are now unable to get a ticket for Sunday despite some sitting there in the office.

Id rather a ticket went to someone who goes every week regardless of the result but know that wont be the case. Id be looking for a ticket for sunday if it was east stirling as much as celtic because im home and staying in glasgow on sunday as iv got a course on Monday in glasgow Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might get offered more if there is some left. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 They handled it fine imo. STs should get priority, would it be fair if someone who had bought a ST and had been to every game miss out on a ticket to someone who hadnt been to a game all season? Should someone who went to Alloa and the like on Tuesday nights in the cold miss out on a ticket to someone who's been boycotting all season but onw wants a ticket because we're playing celtic? Naw.The clubs handled it well, ensuring all those who showed loyalty and bought a ST got a chance to get a ticket first. Then RSCs can allocate them the way they see fit. Ensures that loyal fans and not gloryhunters get a ticket.Every time we play celtic theres countless folk posting asking for a ticket with a different excuse as to why they didnt buy a ST and its unfair how they cant get a ticket to the biggest game of the season.

Obviously it's right that ST holders got priority. I just mean it's at the point now where there's tickets sitting there which could have been moved onto half ST holders by now, or to supporters clubs.

What do you think about those with ST who got an Old Firm ticket and decided to sell it on at a profit over Facebook and Gumtree. Are they loyal fans, not gloryhuntrs, but still cunts? It's all very confusing this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sket 13,610 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I got 2. 1 from my ST and 1 from the bus.

Lucky to get any up front. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just for the record I'm not a member of any supporters club but recognise the effort these guys put in to follow the club around the country and if giving them some extra tickets helps them fill buses etc then so be it!
