Why Celtic fans shouldn't take the Broomloan Stand

[1st_Jan_1994 4,868]

give them fuck all,then we won't have to sit in that shithole.simples.

No thanks I'd rather go and support my team

[iain1712 336]

We should only give them the broomloan front and have a pie sale at the kiosks for this game.

The charity minded bears among us who are in the rear of the stand could donate some foodstuffs to the hungry beggars during the game.

I know they are there for security reasons but we need to work something else out for the matches against them in the future. Keep them out of sight of the Sky cameras which is what they do to us. Give them fuck all coverage. Give our team an advantage by having us behind both goals. Not to mention the fact they get a bigger percentage than they give us !

Great idea .Problem is our club don't have a backbone and Police would never allow change that meant they had to work for their money .The security cameras have all been set up for certain areas .Sadly not a chance

[Young Citizen 7]

Give them the west enclosure, its as easy as that.

[Scouse bear 4]

Surely it all adds to the occasion? I love to hear us out singing them at the piggery & wouldn't want our large travelling support to be denied briefs as would be the most likely outcome. I genuinely can't wait to see this game again no matter what most say... I'm sure deep down most of you feel the same. Try getting a ticket for the first time they come here after we get back up or better still a cup game this season.

Remember the sleepless nights before, the adrenalin, the nerves that lead to the 3 toilet trips (before breki) & the alcohol flowing on a Sunday morning & accepted by the wife as normal behaviour. I know we hate them & vice versa but for me this is what football is all about at its best. Pure 100% tribalism. WATP

Fuck them, give them the Albion car park with 50" flat screen TV. Ah fuck it, we'll give them a burger van too.

And how do you get supporters in & out of Ibrox safely?

[scottyc06 6,927]

No thanks I'd rather go and support my team

Those suggesting giving them no tickets are those who don't follow Rangers away!

[StublueKPL 524]

Exactly scotty

[Carsons Dog 9,878]

Although I don't want them in our ground, reducing their allocation would only end up punishing our away support as others have said.

Not really anywhere else for them to go.

We should be boycotting the piggery anyway

[Non_Sucumbi 876]

Where else do we put them? Fuck giving them any of the Govan.

Only think I'd give them is a slow horrible death.

[ClydebankBearWATP 877]

Put them up in the gods of the main stand and have a mesh net infront of them so they cant spit their aids, throw stuff etc. Out of sight out of mind etc etc

[bombaybadboy08 15,660]

We should be boycotting the piggery anyway

Sounds great in theory as they're our most hated rivals but it will serve no purpose other than to leave our team in a pit of slavering parasites.

We wouldn't be depriving them of any money by doing it and it would never be unanimous anyway.

Each to their own though and I understand if folk don't want to give the tims the money, I view it as a necessity in order to see the team though.

[williemacbrd 32]

We had the cnuts in the west Encl and Main Stand way before the C Deck.

Brilliant Square goes everywhere.

Mental it was.

they also had little bit of the Govan, front and rear

[CalvinC 1,414]

Put them in the bin.

[bearsinbath 95]

What about something like this, would this work?

We could always have a few empty seats between us and them with some coppers too, like they do at the piggery. I'd guess this would equate to roughly 5000?

Don't know if it would be possible, but it would keep them on that side of the ground for where they are parked, and I'm sure there could be coppers outside lining between the Broomloan and Main Stand for when they leave.

Used to be like that years ago before the stadium was redeveloped.

[WVB 2,560]

They used to get broomland,

Really?

Get to many games do you?

[StrongbowLoyal. 36]

They used to get broomland, west enclosure and part of the main stand.

I'm pretty sure they never!!

[SE5 107]

Broomland?

[Copland bear 7,966]

They did used to get the broomland, west enclosure and a third of the main stand in the early 80's. We used to get part of the main stand when we went to the piggery as well as behind the goals

[TravelingWilBEARy 4,319]

Has the Broomloan been renamed?

[1st_Jan_1994 4,868]

Plane in front if the broomland

[Cos88 283]

Pretty sure a couple of taigs have been outed there.

[tannerall 25,935]

Should go back to old traditions and remove the roof at the Broomloan "cellic" end at future games against them.

For younger bears, right up to the seventies Gers fans always had the covered end and cellic fans had the uncovered end, both at Ibrox and Hampden. Porkheid had covering at both ends so the chosen people seldom got wet at an old firm game.

We used to sing "The h**s are getting wet, the h**ns are getting wet; ee, aye, adio the h**s are getting wet" on a regular basis.

At the smaller grounds we'd usually take over the covered terrace, and did the same in friendlies at both Villa Park and Old Trafford when we chased the home fans out of their terrace.

In those days the West stand was the Broomloan.

Don't know when it changed to Broomland.

Maybe "Coploan Bear" can advise

it would mean both sets of fans in the same concourse before taking seats, would be a nightmare to police and could turn very ugly...cant see this working but a great suggestion!!!
