Sheep getting 850 tickets for replay

Aberdeen fans will only receive 850 tickets from Rangers for the Scottish Cup replay next Tuesday.

There were arguments over the allocation before the first game at Pittodrie on Sunday with Scottish Cup rules stipulating that clubs should receive 20 per cent of the stadium.

Due to safety rules at Pittodrie, Rangers were given just 2000 tickets. Now Aberdeenwill receive even fewer.

SFA rules allow for a 20 per cent allocation of the 50,000 capacity – around 10,000 – but it is understood the Dons will opt against requesting a larger amount of seats

That's less than TWO per cent of the stadium, with the Dons fans being housed in the usual away corner of the Sandy Jardine stand.

This is the usual amount given to clubs that go to Ibrox on league duty, but hasn't been the case for cup games.

Seems we pushed for the 20% then well done Rangers for standing firm on the replay

It says Aberdeen opted out of requesting more, nothing to do with our bawbag board standing firm.

They'll hardly even bring 850 fans on a Tuesday night 

Thought their support on Sunday for a quarter final game at their own ground was beyond embarrassing

I'll give them credit anyway they prob knew they'd get told tae bolt

Well done.

Do the Sheep  have 850 fans who regularly attend away  matches....

[Zappa6995 3,658]

As it should be.

The sheep can't sell out their own stadium at the weekend against their biggest rivals. They were never going to come to Glasgow in their droves for a midweek game anyway.

To be fair yes they do. Not so sure on a mid week

[1690tamRFC 5,001]

Shite club, shite support. Fuck them. 

[BlueKnight87 17,313]

Good stuff. Be surprised if they even take the full 850. They couldn't even sell out a home quarter final against the club they hate most.

I don't think so mate. Couple of hundred - tops.

 

Joke of a club who think they are bigger than they are.

Tbf since 2017 every away game against us is at night and they’ve sold out every allocation.

Given their generosity in accommodating some Bears in the home section at the weekend, I suggest we do the decent thing and reciprocate.

20 seats reserved for mutton bangers in the heart of the Broomie should do the job nicely.

I said this the other day on here and got a few replies saying they'll bring a decent crowd down. There's no chance they would have taken more than 1000 if they were to get a bigger allocation, on a weekend maybe but no chance during the week. 

[Sparkle 53,634]

Well done our club.  I take back what I said about you in the other thread.

[Moody Blue Legend 61,588]

Riddy.

[BridgeIsBlue 66,612]

Diddy club. 

[Courtyard Bear 41,357]

I await the faux righteous indignation from the sheepy cunts and calls for a boycott 

[They Gnu 11,553]

What’s been overlooked in all of this is, it’s wrong to fornicate with sheep

Yeah, the Tims will be out buying tops as we speak to go along to the game.

[born a blue nose 90,852]

Well done the Aberdeen board.  Sensible decision.

[doc holliday 1,653]

It  would take a 'red neck' to ask for more,like Mr Bumble I hope we hand out a sound  thrashing to the sheep.
