Also says there that Utd will be given a maximum of 13,100.

 

Absolute scandal. Not surprising though.

 

[Foster14]

Albion are getting over 30k tickets?!

[Redstar]

A fucking disgrace.

[ollie1903]

I would be surprised if anyone would be surprised.

Institutional corruption

[ebbe]

absolute disgrace but unsurprising. even if united only got 26 tickets they'd still give the huns 6. just watched them against Dunfermline and they are fucking woeful. £7million annual wage budget?!

[The Boofon]

Not surprised but that's a disgrace. Always should be 50/50 split.

[dave_min]

How dare those stupid Arab fucks ask for either a neutral venue or a fair split of tickets for a semi final.

 

Looking forward to them ripping Sevco apart.

[the_shrimp]

Albion Rovers could still win the replay.

[robbojunior]

13k tickets?

 

Fucking disgrace. Utter cunts in charge of our game.

[Robbie Winters]

Who to believe here.

Where do Utd get this 13k figure from ? Find it hard to believe that has even been discussed yet, game is nearly a month away

 

If it is true then shocking but good to see Utd noising Hun up already

[fine-n-dandy]

Fucking disgusting. Not surprising but fucking disgusting.

 

Fair enough if they won't move the game (didn't expect that to be honest) because as they say, finals & semis have been played at "un neutral" venues numerous times.

 

However, Utd should be given 50% allocation first & foremost (regardless of opposition) & if they are unable to sell them, then they can give some back.

 

Fucking criminal that the huns (if they win) are not only having home advantage but to give them basically a full (regular) Scottish cup tie allocation in a supposed "neutral" semi final.

 

Got to be major protests over this by Utd.

This cannot be allowed to go ahead by them because it will only happen again in future otherwise.

[CraigHill]

Fuck Dundee United and whoever they play in the semi.

[RUL]

Did anybody even read the article...it's initial allocation of 13k and rangers initial allocation of 11k.

[Foster14]

No, United were offered 11k is what the article says..

[MerklandDandy]

Article says united initially offered 11k before being told 13k was the most they would get:

 

"United say they have been given a maximum ticket allocation of 13,100 for the semi-final at Ibrox if their opponents are Rangers, having initially been offered only 11,000 tickets."

 

That is how I interpret it anyway.

 

Disgrace if true.

[Ke1t]

Scottish football, there for the benefit of two teams only.

 

The Sevco 5088 The Rangers aren't even in the top flight and already the authorities have started favouring them over other teams.

 

2 years and we're back to exactly how it was, and all because our own clubs are fucking gutless.

[Tommy]

Good Luck Albion

[tup]

United should fight this all the way.

[ericblack4boss]

To be fair I am sure that this will include the closing of any stand within object throwing distance, as this is the precedent set by the police for tomorrow.

[RUL]

I am going back into hiding, what a howler

[ollie1903]

I am going back into hiding, what a howler

 

Stay with us min, we're all allowed one.

 

I said there wouldn't be a million fans at the pigsty tomorrow

[STANDfreeSCOTTY]

We have to be careful about this, IF we get to the final and Sevco do,, the fuckers at the sfa will try and do the same. I think we need to protest NOW and try and help utd.

Exactly!

 

We should not just let this new team come from nowhere & take over & start taking larger allocations.

 

Fuck that. 50/50 split & then it's up to your own teams support to make sure you can fill it before offering them back left overs

[Tord31]

I'd reckon United should just take a stand and refuse to play unless Ibrox is treated as a neutral venue.

[caledonia]

If i were united i would demand 50/50 and if they dont get it pull out the competition giving the cheating scum bastards fuckall

Scottish football is corrupt to the core

 

Other clubs need to stand with united and either get a rule in place its 50/50 or refuse to play

[spamspamspam]

I'd reckon United should just take a stand and refuse to play unless Ibrox is treated as a neutral venue.

 

 

Dont be daft, that would give them free pass into the final.

[caledonia]

4 dons fans posted on united forum here already own up who is it

You know the SFA would give the Huns a bye in to the final if they did that.

[caledonia]

You know the SFA would give the Huns a bye in to the final if they did that.

But they would not make any cash

[Redstar]

Exactly!

This has already been covered...by me...I stick with my original prediction...regardless of venue...if we do...and I really hope we do...meet the hun in the final...we will get the shit side of a 75/25 allocation.

 

Edit...think AFC v ICT...for reasoning.
