.Williamson. 86,974 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Rangers will have supporters in the ground for the Europa League clash with Young Boys on Thursday night. That's despite the club refusing to take any tickets as part of their attempts to clamp down on sectarian singing which occurred during qualifying rounds Incidents against St Joseph's and Legia Warsaw led to sections of Ibrox being shut for games against the Polish side and Feyenoord. Rangers fans had already snapped up hospitality packages and three-game deals from Young Boys to ensure they could get into the Stade de Suisse stadium. But with only around 26,000 tickets sold for the 32,000-stadium, Young Boys are now directly selling tickets to Rangers fans already in Switzerland without any restrictions meaning Steven Gerrard's men will have some support. And it's believed they will offer the Rangers fans dotted around the stadium to go into a section they have created for them. A Young Boys spokesman said: "The mixing of fans is not a problem as long as everyone sticks to the rules. "We have estimated around 600 Rangers fans will be in the stadium tonight and we don't envisage any problems." 600 odd is a right turnout for a support that received no tickets for a game in Switzerland Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
j1mgg 3,766 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 There was always going to be Rangers fans there. It was just the Rangers fans that buy tickets through the normal channels that werent going to be there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookWorm 4,689 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Obviously there will be Rangers fans there. 600 is a terrific amount under the circumstances. I think there will be 800 Rangers fans there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jb85 1,786 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 There’ll be absolutely no problems with fans mixing but it’s great they’ve allowed our fans their own wee section despite not taking tickets. Well done to young boys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Club did the right thing under the circumstances. They made a move which probably prevented the Feyenoord game having to be played behind closed doors.

We were well accommodated in Vienna last year too. Cant speak highly enough of how we were treated in Moscow by Spartak officials and the police either. Will never catch on in Scotland.

LegendofCoop 18,024 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 See the difference between clubs in Europe and in this cesspit of a country? It's night & day. St Jo's congratulating us on making the group stages. FC Midgieland staff wearing our colours at their home game, now this. Sure we also had great receptions by the away sides last season. Can we move to Europe please?? Now that the word is out, I'd expect at least 1000 there! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
