AGM_72 4,050 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 3 minutes ago, Brackley said: If drawn with a home fixture first game in the Europa League we absolutely must play that at Ibrox even if it's with 3 or 3 1/2 stands open. Otherwise we will have to play all our home European games at Hampden right through to February. Sure I read that there's some wiggle room there for us. The reason the rule exists is to stop teams moving from their home ground to a bigger ground (national stadium) to gain an advantage. Our case is different to that. Obviously not a given that UEFA would still allow us to switch back but certainly not as clear cut as I initially thought the same as you did.

Will be an excellent view compared to the previous location in front of the Enclosure. Is this accessible from ground level or are lifts required?

Never really paid much attention but it seems a better spot to watch the game from. Hopefully access to and from the area isn't a nightmare of there's loads trying to use only 3 lifts.

We can apply to play one or two at Hampden and there's precedent for other clubs doing similar. It's not guaranteed but we can apply and have a good chance of it being approved. The rule is in place basically to stop clubs gaining a sporting or financial advantage. i.e. say Killie get a big English club and want to move their game against them to Hampden, they wouldn't be allowed to do that.

I would imagine that the wheelchair Bears would simply have to arrive in plenty of time before kick off. There is after all, only so much you can do in a limited space with regards to accessability.
