Tit for tat with the other mob over allocations

Not a chance should they ever get the old allocation back ie the Broomloan but surely 2500-3000 is doable, they are desperate for the old allocation back as they know it gave them an advantage if they can’t do 2500-3000 then it should be 800 or fuck all for the foreseeable. 

Please explain this.

They had an entire end to attack into with their fans behind the goal, the fact the tarriers are so desperate to get the old allocation back tells you everything you need to know.

It only looked like they got an advantage when we were fucking rotten.

They had the same so called advantage when Rangers had good players and a good team and used to beat them at will, over to you.

It was still an advantage wether we beat them or not.

The years before they just had Broomloan, they had West Enclosure and the tier of the main stand. All before club deck era. Used to be good standing at the tunnell before they built the cover way. Coins and god knows what else being thrown across the gap.

They get full stand the broomloan while we get stuck as far away oot the way as possible why do you think the tarriers are so desperate to get their old allocation back, they know they had the better deal out of it. 

[OrangeRab 3,070]

It was definitely an advantage. Maybe not a big one. But the percentage of fans they had at Ibrox was higher than we got there. And obviously they were more visible whilst we were tucked in a corner.

Far away out the way as possible  we got to within about 10 seats of the goal.

Never once heard anyone in our support say we get an advantage against Dundee United, St Mirren, Hibs, St Johnstone, Ross County, Kilmarnock that they don’t get against us due to positioning of fans

Well we know home advantage is legitimate. So what is it that gives teams an edge in any sport. It’s percentage of fans, how visible they are and how audible. It can only really be those three things. And their position and higher % allocation benefits them. It’s probably pretty negligible but it’s an advantage. However small

We aren’t competing with these sides for titles though.

Not really, would you be happy going to the piggery for a 3rd time after the split or rather go away to one of the other mentioned clubs?

Always hated them having a full stand, but this is a shambles now. Blame is solely with us as well i’m afraid. Large section of the support threw the toys out the pram after one to many pumpings and the board used the situation to win some cheap points with the same section. 

The team need as many supporters as we can get in that dump as well, we’re fucking shite there. 

We were not allowing season ticket holders in the broomloan access to our biggest match to allow 8000 fenian bastards to do what the fuck they wanted.

for years people had been wanting their allocation cut, this isn’t due to “pumpings” as some like to claim 

[RFC55 110,289]

Bf1 secured access but you were moved to the corner and other fans were relocated, genuinely fuck the fenian cunts

But we’d never be going to the Piggery for a third time so again, it’s irrelevant.

I think it could've happened in 2016-17 since we were the lowest ranked club in the top six (previous seasons standings) but the League worked itself out, I doubt the SPFL would've had the bottle to do it but if the predicted clubs had finished top six and they followed the rules it would've been a possibility.

[JimmyCR1 1,536]

I don’t think we will see away fans at either ground again now. Same things happened in Holland with Ajax and Feyenoord.

This has always been my issue with the allocation.  Should be a percentage split and put them in the main rear (with chicken wire around them - for their own protection obviously lol)

[Nimmoger 7]

Never have them visible if allowed back , utter disgrace we were shunted out of site of camara for year's, obvious advantage they had kicking Into stand full of them , our board are shite at dealing with them , don't mind them at Ibrox , not on camera view tho

Why invite more to mock our minutes silence for the Ibrox Disaster every 2 years ?

 

 

Scummy cunts should be told that is the sole reason and leave it there.

Superb Rangers.

Fuck the taig cunts.

When we had a decent side it never mattered in fact I used to enjoy watching us scoring at that end directly in front of those inbred mutants the reactions were priceless. However I did feel it odd that they got an entire stand behind the goal while we didn't and had to put up with restricted views in some cases. I actually preferred going to the old piggery when we got all of the stand behind the goal and a wee bit of the main stand. 

Anyways,I couldn't care less if I never saw another solitary mutant in our old lady of Govan again. 

Keep them out. 

And btw the audacity of them having the temerity to go on about the safety of their players and staff,the fucking thug's were attacking their own players and bus rioting outside the Stad de Gadd not that long ago.

With them being fully visible in an entire stand , while our support were usually hidden away from the cameras it led to the narrative of tgfitw , which could potentially give them an advantage of companies and sponsors wanting to be associated with that .

On a playing front our goalkeeper is in an hostile environment for 6 out of 8 half's every season , likewise theirs is 2 out of 8 , again you could call that an advantage of facing the abuse of an entire stand behind you .

Personally I'm happy with either side getting a corner,  if for any other reason ir lets ST holders in the Broomloan not missing out on the biggest games of the season , and tbh I don't see any loss of atmosphere during the games .
