kanjo 26,408 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Other way about I'd say, keep us even further from the pitch.That or they'll half the stand in the middle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulReid 184 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The ticket guy in at fir park said it was because they wanted 2000 for ibrox but never got them. He said we would have got the whole south stand Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

superally07 387 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I'd happily of given motherwell 2000 tickers or Hibs 3000 if that's what they asked for.They can agree to take up that allocation for their next 10 visits to ibrox though with their clubs having to pay the cash upfront for all tickets before each game. We would do the same for our allocations at fir park and easter road. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Gallant Pioneer 555 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The tie will be over on Thursday so can't see many Well fans turning up to watch us party on Sunday. Fir Park will be a sea of red, white and blue for the game. Live on TV in front of the world. Our return. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escobar 13,676 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Rangers better remember this the next time we play them, only ever take 1500 tickets off them and see how they get on selling the whole stadium every other time from now on.Fucking wanks.

Tontospal 1,116 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The game is dead in Scotland and is apparently crying out or fans, to the extent that cup final tickets are at their lowest price for probably 25 years. Yet here we have another example of a club cutting their nose off to spite their face and is denying genuine fans an opportunity to attend a match.Examples of sporting integrity in Scotland include:a) punishing the biggest and most successful club in the land over and over again regardless of whether that club is guilty of any rules breachb) sell your best 2 players to a competitor and imminent cup final opponent in a transaction that provides a lucrative bonus for your managerc) reduce the amount made from a play off match by not selling empty seats to fans willing to attend the matchScottish football stinks to high heavens and only Rangers will ever have another penny from me.

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 It's probably the Motherwell fans behind this, they will have cracked up when the club said they would give us the full stand.One of the season ticket holders I know said that he would have rather Motherwell got relegated than voting us into the SPL a few years back.His time is coming now I think the clubs get on ok but mind it was Motherwell fans who told the club they would boycott if they voted for us.Fucking payback.

bluenosebrad 452 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Lets just prove a point and send the b*****ds down that would be the perfect response. If we can give them a doing on Thursday so the second leg is all but dead lets see if they can sell any tickets to their fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsons Dog 9,878 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Really have no issues with that, they have to put their own fans first, if the home end is selling out, fair enough.We will pursing them anyway.The home end is only selling out cos the Bears are buying all the ticketsA move which will be accelerated tenfold now Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iain1690 2 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The Motherwell statement says there's more than enough tickets in their current allocation of 950 to ensure everyone who renewed their ST will get one.They are a wee club who will languish in the lower reaches of the scottish championship for years to come.Sure that's cause less than 950 people renewed with them haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz52 11,837 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 When we played them in the cup back in division three, they brought around 1000 fans IIRC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

one55 1,510 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 If it's to accommodate more home fans then fair enough. If they are doing it cause it's the big bad deed Rangers then fuck them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianferguson 2,619 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Bottom line here is that the 50% to SFA and cheaper seats means clubs don't care about attendance as it doesn't put much cash into club. Downside to that is how small minded it make Scottish football look and how poor it looks on TV. Bye the way did Hibs or Well ever consider that a large Rangers support might actually inspire their players to rise to the occasion. If my chairmen said "good news boss we're keeping as many away fans out as possible in case your players shit themselves playing in front of a big crowd " I'd think 1_0 to Rangers already . Also don't confuse this as tit for tat as Rangers limiting away fans in no way effected attendance or showed TOO much respect to Hibs or Well choirs.
