If you don't purchase a ticket for the game, isn't boycotting then fuck knows. If you turn up to the stadium/town and don't buy a ticket you are not giving the club any money. We were on about boycotting the clubs not the town's/areas. scottyc06, LochendBilly, .Williamson. and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So all the people going up with the intention of not buying a ticket are what? Our full allocation has been ‘SOLD OUT’ people who want to attend the match but don’t have tickets because our section is ‘SOLD OUT’ are traveling without tickets, if they could buy them they would. It’s not fucking rocket science 🤣 Two thousand Rangers in the stadium and hopefully a few thousand outside taking libertys.

Only 2000 of those can be allocated a ticket for Aberdeen. The full 2,000 have been allocated to the lucky members of the scheme. There are now others talking about going up without tickets with the hope of getting a ticket and if not they'll watch in the pub. They are not boycotting the game so why is this so hard for you to understand? The Rangers end will be full. There is no boycott. The tickets for our end are SOLD OUT Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turning up without a ticket and not intending to buy one isn't boycotting. I shall remain confused and wrong then. Are there tickets available for them to buy? If yes, but they're deliberately choosing not to, then it could be boycotting. If not, then it can't be boycotting as the criteria for that includes the ability to go but determination not to. It's not difficult. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At no point do o say anyone is boycotting the Aberdeen game. A few pages ago someone stated (my initial quote) that it would be great if 12000 went up, it has since gone from me agreeing, into somehow I'm stating that we are boycotting the Aberdeen game. As we established years ago as a fan base, we could not manage to boycott anyone because we have that many fans that 50000+ could boycott the games but there would still be over 5000 that would want tickets, therefore the clubs we would have been trying to boycott would still be getting money off Rangers fans someway.

I think it’s a misinterpretation of how the certificate works tbh. I’m not totally sure how it operates but there are clauses for stadium layout, ingress and egress, and how to deal with alterations. I think it’s probably that Aberdeen’s one only has approved layout for the current away area and was unlikely to receive approval for alterations in time. To me though that’s still unacceptable and Aberdeen shouldn’t be allowed to enter the Scottish Cup if their ground does not have the ability to meet the rules.
