If, and thats a big IF, we progress in the SC any further and we were to draw somebody like Hearts, Rangers, Celtic.

With our new Capacity, will we need to give 5000 tickets to them? Or am i making this rule up?

If so, where do we put them, im guessing the south doesnt hold 5000?

As far as the % given to away fans I was under the impression that it is 10% we give to them.

Dont think its as high as 25% mate. That would be approx 15,000 when the old firm play each other and dont remember either side ever getting that many tickets.

It's generally 15% if memory serves me right, but they have to be safely segregated so they'd only ever get the South Stand, which I reckon probably holds 4,000+ anyway?

If yesterday's attendance is anything to go by, they could probably get the Famous Five Stand as well as the folk in there would easily fit into the West Stand.

Giving them the East and the South would be the only way that the game would be close to a sell out.

South holds about 3800 and i think the away team are entitled upto 20% of the ground providing they can be segregated safely. The South stand is all they would get anyway.
