scottyc06 6,916 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 So after club1872's statement where they have mentioned the growing support to restricting the beggers allocation it got me wondering just what our collective view is. Personally, I don't have an issue with the way things are now, with the only change I would like to see is it being a percentage of the total capacity, this increasing our allocation while keeping theirs the same! However.. To keep things simple: The way things are now or; Restricted to standard away allocations. Personally I think a lot of this comes down to wether you follow Rangers away from home or not, as if you only attend home games I can see why you would want them limited but thinking of our away following, I would rather things were left the way they are!

Prso's headband 35,766 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I've only missed 4 games home and away the past 5 years. I'd blow my top if we got 1000 tickets for parkhead, meaning I'd miss the two biggest away games of the domestic season to satisfy those who just go to the home games? Not for me.

GOAT 30,449 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 This shite again. look nothing will change, nor should it. We get 8,000 they get 8,000. The end. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottywellhousetb 50,666 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I go to away games, including their shitehole, would love to see their allocation cut, wouldn't bother me one bit if i didn't get a ticket for their shitehole ever again, my disgust for the stinking ratbags far outweighs my need to attend their horrible home.

I do agree though, it's getting a bit tedious going on about this over and over, it won't change, ever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluewhitevanman 1,619 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Yes I would change it to 3000 each as I would never step foot in the beggar bowl again anyway plus I don't want 8000 of they cretinous in our ground none of them would be great but just for evens sakes we could give them 3000. If u get to go the first time then ur out the ballot for the second time and keep it fair that way. I don't know why anyone would want to go there and get subjected to some of the vile things they do and listen to an iraoke. People can come on and say we need to support the team but 3000 is plenty at that dive. The last time with the dolls was plenty and if u want to go and be subjected to that shite then that's up to u but to pay 50 notes for the privilege, some folk need their heads looked at. Stay back from it is what I would say and never give then another penny Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kplfishtank 4,660 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I stopped away games once we went up so in reality doesn't affect me. but I would never want it to change. No better thing than seeing 8k bears going tonto in their midden. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't push for it, most of it I think is just posturing and noise to look like their speaking as the voice of the fans, I'm not a big fan of club1872 or these type of groups, each to their own I suppose , the allocation will not be cut though, it just won't happen.

I too travel home and away and have done pretty much since I left school. Whilst if there was a way to move those rancid creatures to another part of the ground out of eye shot id be all for that I'm against reducing the number they get as it would reduce the chance of myself and people I travel with week in week out getting a brief for the piggery.

Gaz52 11,837 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 I think we should cut it as I honestly can't stand seeing a whole stand at Ibrox decked out in tri-colours like it's St Paddy's day, whilst they sing about the IRA. I'd stick them in the govan west corner and scare the cunts to death Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do feel for those that go to their shithole , I don't go now but there was a time when I couldn't ever see me not going , but just had enough of hearing and seeing all their shite at Ibrox .

If Celtic FC told you they wanted to increase their numbers at Ibrox while reducing the Rangers away allocation at Parkhead would that seem like a good deal to you? Neither club would agree to those terms. The size of the travelling support for both clubs is roughly the same size and either club have stadiums big enough to accommodate those allocations so the current system seems reasonable.

I think the whole statement seems to be a point scoring exercise tbh but I was slightly surprised that this is something they would include as generally those I speak to are happy with the current set up, then again it's mainly people who follow Rangers away from home & the poll does suggest the majority would rather it was cut!
