Carsons Dog 9,878 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Were you there on Saturday?How busy was it?I was never in the old Ibrox Suite, so no idea capacity, size etc. I really hope this is a success, ideal Xmas/birthday treat for kids/grandparents etc.I notice we are home on Boxing Day, might be an idea for a Xmas presnt for his granda from the wee man?It was my mate who went thereThey are looking to limit it to 80/100 per game so it would be advisable to get in quick as its likely to be popular after last week Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

familystandloyal 131 Posted September 2, 2013 Author Share Posted September 2, 2013 I'm not sure mate, there were six of themI would book ASAP for Boxing Day tbhMight do that, thinking it would be a good Xmas present for his granda from the wee man. He hasn't been to a game at Ibrox in a good few years so this might be ideal for him to go with mini-me.No doubt, a lot of people will be thinking the same with family coming back to Scotland from all over at that time of year and trying to fit a trip to Ibrox in when here.

Madina 3,841 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Do you need to have a kid with you to go to this? or would my Dad and I get away with getting in? Seems good value for money Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
familystandloyal 131 Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 Do you need to have a kid with you to go to this? or would my Dad and I get away with getting in? Seems good value for moneyGood question mate, why note e-mail them at the address above?Even if you 'need' to have a kid with you nothing to stop you buying 2 adults & 1 kid for £120 and the 'kid' taking not well on the day of the match.I e-mailed yesyerday to ask if there is a limit on numbers of kids to adults, thinking of having te wee man's birthday party there as it's not any more expensive to take half a dozen kids there than to cinema or somewhere else.

Seems good value for moneyOn a related note, are hospitality prices for adults & kids only or is there a concession/OAP price too?I'm thinking of getting mini-me's granda hospitality tickets as a gift (he is over 60) and he could go to Ibrox with him for a game.Does anyone know?

blueyonderbill 127 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I'm looking into going over with my son and three grandsons 5, 7 and 9. I have had good feedback about it from last Saturday. My son's mate was over with his wife and two kids, parking at the stadium included and they got photos taken with big Daley. Hoping to do it this month. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping to do it this month.I noticed someone earlier in the thread said that Daly, Law, Colin Stein and someone else were all in there last weekend but no mention of a (ex)player being there in the 'advert', so might have been a one off for opening day.

familystandloyal 131 Posted September 6, 2013 Author Share Posted September 6, 2013 Just came home from work and Family hospitality tickets for Arbroath game have arrived in the post.Couple of questions, but hospitality obviously gone home for the night, so hopefully fellow bears on here can help.Where exactly is parking for Ibrox Suite?The 'strictly no football colours' dress code, does that mean no scarves?Smart casual dress code says no trainers or jeans, my wee boy wears nothing but jeans and hi-tops. They are 'dressy' coloured jeans as opposed to bog standard denim and his hi-tops aren't a stinky old pair of converse, will he be allowed to wear that kinda stuff OR will it be chinos and school shoes?

StublueKPL 524 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 No disrespect but 50 quid for hospitality? Outstanding value. Ffs I was 45 quid at the piggery a couple of years ago for a seat behind a pillar.My mate done the waddle suite a couple of years ago and it over 4 times that Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick a scarf on him and if anyone says anything then roll it up and put it in your pocket. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ffs I was 45 quid at the piggery a couple of years ago for a seat behind a pillar.My mate done the waddle suite a couple of years ago and it over 4 times thatThere are 4 of us going on Saturday, me, mrs FSL, mini FSL and his wee pal...£140 the lot.That includes entry 2 hours before kick off, parking near stadium, buffet, programme(s), half time snacks/drinks, an hour post match and based on reports from last game a chance to meet some (ex)players...and Broxi!!!I normally go to BR with mini-me and most weeks we are roughly £50 in total (£22 tickets + programme + food/drinks at HT and pre/post match. So double that for another adult/child and by my calculations hospitality is only costing an extra £40 in total for 4 of us, or £10 a head!!!

familystandloyal 131 Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 I just had a phone call from Pippa at Rangers Hospitality regarding this Saturday's game V Arboath.Basically they need 40-60 to justify opening the suite [i assume to cover costs] and they haven't reached that igure this week so Family Suite won't be open.BUTWe are getting moved to Argyll Suite, carvery buffet/bottle of wine and a stadium/trophy room tour included too for no extra cost!!!Result...and big thank you to Rangers staff for looking after the next generation of fans, really looking forward to this now.

Stewards there are advised of people using the hospitality.One day I will do the hospitality but just never got around to it.Hope you and the family all enjoy it bud Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenosebrad 452 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I take my wee yin once a month she picks the game, she loves it but in the winter time he struggles to keep warm and looses interest in the game because she is very cold. It was be good if there was a hospitality for kids in BR keeping away from the main hospitality suites. I would use it with mine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StublueKPL 524 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 As much as I appreciate guys with kids and taking them to the games..... one thing. Hospitality? Ffs the best memories of my life was when I was a wee boy and my da took me to the broomie(didn't have enough money for both of us for a season ticket)When I was 11 my da paid for my season ticket and I was in the east enclosure with my pals. Miss those days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
