Their supporters will be housed in a corner of the Lisbon Lions Stand and half of the main stand. Aberdeen, who have been given an allocation of 30,000, have been given the Jock Stein Stand, the North Stand and the rest of the main stand. It is insulting to our club and supporters David Balfour Inverness are believed to have been allocated less than 8,000 tickets, but it is the areas of the ground set aside for their fans they are not happy with. An official club tweet read: “ICTFC have been in talks since the seating map was received. The distribution of seating is unacceptable in its current form.” Inverness supporters chief David Balfour added: “It is insulting to our club and supporters. I met with the chairman and we are in agreement.” However, SPFL chief Neil Doncaster insisted discussions were still going on to finalise the seating plan. He said: “No final decision has been made regarding allocations and tickets for the forthcoming Scottish League Cup Final. “We continue to consult with both clubs and the venue regarding this.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Hilts 12,819 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I read about this yesterday. Inverness aren't too fussed about the amount of tickets they've been given, they're more annoyed that they've been given the normal 'away section' when it's a cup final.always good to see Doncaster balls something up though Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueshoff 11,799 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 And that cunt Milne and his club are totally arrogant if they are advertising tickets that haven't been finalised.I think they must have been finalised - don't see how they can sell tickets without seat numbers on them?

West_Side 1,571 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 It really does piss me off but when you get wee clubs like caley who greet about this kind of thing.will they even sell all 8k tickets.many did they have at their game last night.According to the article they're not complaining about the number of seats, only the placement of them. Right in the corner in the away section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livi-Loyalist 46 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 West side- aye ano bud (I said this kind of thing). Whether it be how many tickets thay get or where in the ground they are positioned.they are still getting half the main stand so for the life of me I really don't see where they are coming from.Centenarystand- I hope not but I think it will. Only time will tell.As long as the sheep play well I'm sure more of them will come out the woodwork. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

harlands plater 16,975 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 If we do get to the Scottish Cup Final no doubt the tickets will be split 50-50, with Bears scrambling for one while Paw, Maw and the weans from Diddyville get them no problem.

wully 47,331 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Ticket plan agreed:Fans of the Highlanders will be housed in the lower tier of the Lisbon Lions Stand and an adjacent corner of the Main Stand.Dons followers are to take up the rest of the 60,000-capacity stadium, while the upper section of the Lisbon Lions has been left unallocated.A crowd of around 40,000 is expected.

Ozblue 4,331 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I think they must have been finalised - don't see how they can sell tickets without seat numbers on them?That's correct, although the report said the sheepies were advertising their allocation (which was ICT's gripe) and not necessarily selling the briefs at that point.Perhaps Milne has been made the official ticket promoter by that cunt Doncaster.
