Guest RosemountRed Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 So much better they are doing two per account this time. Should sell them a lot quicker than League Cup Final. Link to comment

Truth is, I'd have been at this cup final regardless as it's the 4th year performance school lads graduation ceremony in the Hampden auditorium in the morning. The fact that it's the dons that have reached the final his a humongous bonus Link to comment

Panda Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Brendan Rodgers on Hampden allocation for Scottish Cup final: "It's a strange one. A cup final should be 50/50." " Staggering as we are third or fourth in relation to the average attendance in Britain, so to get less than Aberdeen is astonishing. "I would only hope they would look at it. Shouldn't be that we should go into the game with less tickets, at worst should be 50/50." So hold on. You were happy to get more tickets than Aberdeen and your fans were certainly not all for a fair 50/50, and then says "at worst it should be 50/50" meaning if Celtic had 700 more than us there wouldn't be any issue. They've got less because the east stand has a smaller capacity than the west and there's more corporate in their end. Only Celtic could turn this into an issue and make out they're being wronged somehow. 5 Link to comment
strachanmcgheegoal Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 I assume the tier thing came into it as well whereby opposition fans can't be on a level above T'other fans hence them restricting parkhead for the 2014 final but then allowing it at the league cup final. Good for Duncan Fraser standing his ground. He'll look the proper cunt if/when we fail to sell them! Link to comment

Guest RosemountRed Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 I remember it being an issue for the league cup final; with it being 50/50, how Aberdeen fans were 'robbing' celtic fans of tickets. This time theyre making a spectacle about how laughable it is that they dont get more. The balance is very important to them. Theyre doing us a favour just tolerating it. Last time we unfortunately still had about 500 of our 22,000 tickets unsold. Link to comment

Guest Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Rodgers would comment on the colour of his shit, just to get his name in the papers. He's becoming a habitual bore now. He's loving his 'big fish in a small pond' routine and the press are lapping it up. Let's get feckin ripped into these pricks on the 27th.... period. Link to comment
shut up meg Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 It still boils my piss that we need to wait to see who we play in a final to see what end we get. Link to comment

caledonia Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 There should not be a fucking rangers and celtic end at the national stadiumtickets should be 50/50 and if they told us no fans should not be on a tier on top of opposing fans that should stick not just for some teamsthey used to use the old "on police advice for safety reasons" to give the scum more tickets If i were Aberdeen i would lodge a complaint about anything to the sfa and the press and tv its time for the bias to stoplets start with 1 50/50 split2 toss for what end of the ground3 no fans on top of other fans (get it in the rule book)4 on police advice because of safety/segregation (if any ground has to have say 60/40 split because of this its a coin toss to see who gets the 60%5 ban any papers that have 7 pages of the old firm and only one of Aberdeen on cup final day6 pressure tv companies to have a balanced team of pundits not 3 from Celtic and someone who once drove past Aberdeen7 pressure tv companies to give the same amount of lead up time to all matches as old firm games8 complain about refs that dont give old firm players so much cards because of the so called volatile nature of the game (this affects all clubs as said players are not banned from games like the rest of teams lets get this total bias shit cleared from Scottish football once and for all end of rant p.s any more little things that are just accepted as normal 1 Link to comment
