If we're doing well, before the next home OF game should we offer them more ibrox tickets so they reciprocate for the final away one? Do you think they'd accept? Surely not as the safety of even more fans wouldn't be guaranteed? Or are they saying that if they get what they want either fan safety doesn't matter anymore or no-one could/would throw a missile They wouldn't do that as they're genuine, honest as the day is long, sporting integrity loving good guys.

If we're top of the league then they're not taking 2.5k at Ibrox at New Year and giving us that or more at their place for April after the split. Makes no sense, Lawell would never sanction it. theredhandofNewcastle 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do understand that the folk going to the away games will not like it, but these wankers getting back the whole Broomy should be a straight no for me. Same here fuck them.

More info Rangers will demand an allocation of 700 tickets for the derby at Parkhead in December – even though Celtic have rejected the offer of the same amount for the Ibrox clash in September. Discussions between the security teams of both clubs are ongoing but Record Sport understands Celtic have knocked back the chance to have 700 of their fans at Ibrox because they fear the safety of their supporters – who would be wedged in a corner between the Broomloan and Govan Stands – cannot be guaranteed. The Parkhead club wants a return to the pre-2018 situation which saw them take the entire 7500-capacity Broomloan Stand and Rangers receiving the same amount of tickets at Celtic Park. But with the Ibrox club having more than 45,000 season book holders, there’s no chance of that happening and their preference is 700 for each team. And it is believed they are insisting that having made the offer of 700 tickets to Celtic - irrespective of it being accepted - they should be given the opportunity to take the same number of fans to Parkhead for the New Year Old Firm derby and are keen to do so.

Celtic are understood to have held talks with leading supporters’ groups, who are believed to be backing their stance. Was the only safety issue not when we played at their shitehole?

Aye, that's my point mate - I was on the halfway line at Hampden for the league cup final last year and had a few coins and drinks chucked our way (and vice versa) It's the way it has always been and always will be. Not sure why anyone is flagging as a concern now. Also don't really understand their logic around "it's unsafe, so give us more" Putting that aside, I do think they should get the Euro allocation, this fixture is being diluted like fuck. I get that's not a popular sentiment among our fans, but it's what I've heard from loads of neutrals too. Ladytonbear and OrangeRab 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purely a smokescreen / opportunity to paint us in a bad light. They have put it out on a couple of occasions and never been challenged to demonstrate exactly what it is they see as unsafe / how it is comparatively more unsafe than any other ground so keep throwing it around as they are never challenged. Obviously there are incidents (as highlighted above) but I’m pretty sure we could point to equal issues for our fans at their ground (worse actually as our fans had a crush getting into their unfit dump of a ground) or other away grounds.

It's almost as if its made up disingenuous bullshit.
