bufforbero 128 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Hi AllI'm waiting on word back from the club about this coming Saturday, but just wondered if anyone on here can provide some info.My cousin and fellow season ticket holder is taking his daughter to the match this weekend. She's due to go into hospital at the end of the month for a major operation and she wanted to go see the Rangers, Broxi and to sing her favourite songs (blue sea of Ibrox and Penny Arcade).Hopefully the club will get back to me soon, but in the meantime:Where are the wheelchair spaces in the ground?Do they open the exit gate to allow the wheelchair through and how to get up the stairs?Parking; On the day he'll have to miss the supporters bus and drive himself, hence he'll be taking the wife and his son too. Can they park in the spaces next to the Broomloan if using their blue badge?Also are there seats next to wheelchair spaces for carers?Finally, does Broxi ever get to come up into the stadium itself on occasions like this, or is he confined to the pitch?Chhers in Advance.

JTP 221 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Pretty sure the wheelchair spaces are at the front of the enclosure only. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

debear 603 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Pretty sure that they sell out miles in advance as well, or there is some scheme/waiting list for the tickets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC RYAN 2,967 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 The entrance is the side door at the West Enclosure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabmac1 34 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Waiting list is years for these tickets and I am pretty sure every space is took up by a season ticket. I took my neighbour to a game she has a season ticket I had a seat and the wheelchair goes right in front of me Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bufforbero 128 Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 ah well. thanks for the replies guys.Have had a few emails flying around various folk and thought it was looking promising.If worse comes to worse, she'll have to be carried in, although she's quite hefty for a 6 year old.

hugh_capet 341 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Why don't you just phone Coisty and ask if they will play the match in your back garden FFS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can they park in the spaces next to the Broomloan if using their blue badge?Every wheelchair ticket includes free parking in the Albion.Whatever they do don't just turn up and expect to get access to the wheelchair section or it may end up in tears, make sure they have the appropriate ticket.

The cost of these additional space for these seats is minimal and in this day and age I am sure we could do better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bufforbero 128 Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 Why don't you just phone Coisty and ask if they will play the match in your back garden FFS.Thanks for your input. A member of my family who is wheelchair bound wants to go to watch Rangers. Her first two years of life were spent in the Edinburgh hospital for sick kids. She spent months in Harthill after major heart surgery. She now has another major op to go through at the end of the month all this on six short years of life and her father thought it would be a treat for her before that traumatic event. I'm already sorting arrangements with the club for this, but thought I'd try and get some extra info here. Then someone like you comes out with stuff like that. Hope it never happens to your family brother. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant_1986 73 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I'm sorry to hear you're having difficulty mate, hope she gets to see the Rangers some day soon.We need more of these supporters, instead of the select few who turn up and take it for granted every week.Let us know how you get on.

Having said that I will be when the time comes urging the FFF to donate any unused cash to an improvement in our disabled facilities. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
