St Johnstone chairman accepts 'certain criticisms' over Rangers ticket row as fans prepare to boycott

St Johnstone chairman Steve Brown has told angry supporters he accepts “certain criticisms” over the decision to hand Rangers a large ticket allocation for Saturday’s home Scottish Cup fixture

The Perth club has given up three stands to away fans for the fourth round tie at McDiarmid Park, with home spectators restricted to the Main Stand, while ticket prices have been increased to £30 for adults and £20 for concessions.

Some season ticket holders have also been forced to give up their usual seats. The move has sparked uproar with reports claiming only 300 home tickets have been sold after St Johnstone fans announced they planned to boycott the fixture.

In a statement signed by the St Johnstone chairman, Brown stopped short of making an apology but stressed that supporters concerns will be taken into consideration in future.

It read: “The seating arrangements and pricing for the forthcoming Scottish Cup tie against Rangers has been met with a huge amount of negativity and hostility from a number of our valued fans.

“The Club has endeavoured to respond to the various communications sent to the Club both by way of email and telephone over the last fortnight, and the Club is aware of the views of various sections of fans both from Social Media activity and Press reports.

“The decisions made in respect of this Cup tie were taken with the best interests of the Club at heart. However, we totally understand the frustration our supporters feel and their level of disappointment.

 

Should have just given us the full stadium :lol:

As if they were going to fill the stadium anyway for goodness sake. They can't manage it any other game :sarcasm:

 

I'll go 2-1 to us...given our goalkeepers and players at present. I am optimistic, but not very:)

Looking for somewhere in Liverpool that i’ll be able to watch this imo.

Any Mickey Mousers on here?

Head to the Liverpool/Rangers club in Mere Lane which is near Anfield stadium they'll more than likely have the game on and should be a good atmosphere with Liverpool playing earlier in the day. If your looking to stay in the city centre there'll be numerous sports bars but you'll probably have to ask them to put it on for you.

As I have wrote for the last god knows how long just please give us a confertable win Rangers, No Squeeky bum time, No dodgy defending and going a goal behind, Just play to your best and give us a couple of goals first half then a couple the second half don't even care how boring the game is just fucking win convincingly please.

No doubt we will attack attack and attack not take our chances and they get 1 chance and bury it then it's us chasing the game and we get a couple of goals and win the game holding on to a 1 goal lead with us all biting our nails and shouting at the TV. Fucking usual

If they need the money that much should have agreed to swap the match to Ibrox as it's a 50-50 split for cup games.  Sure we would have given them 300 tickets lol
