    Another obvious method of disadvantaging non Glasgow clubs. Well 2 of them. Bias in action.

    Let’s not make this a LD v Ben debate.

    It’s all the clubs v the Old Firm standing up for their rights and fair allocations.
    Not my intention at all

    Leeann is long gone

    Just fed up of HIBS being used as a door mat and just accepting it as per usual

    My point is we do not need to accept it

    Ben is now at the wheel

    Is that ok?

    I think you are overestimating the power Kensell has or LD would have. Ultimately they can complain as much as they like but they don't make the decision.

    What would you want the club to do to "not accept it"?

    As crap as the allocation is it’s been brought on by yesterday’s attendance and the fact we have thousands of day trippers who canny be arsed when we’re no playing well. It’s pish but it is what it is

    What I would like clarification on is

    Why do the club think the pricing is acceptable the week before Christmas

    And why have Celtic not been allocated the West end?

    Duh!

    Go to the papers, complain, kick up a stink.

    Definitely give Celtic 500 tickets for ER.

    They've already made their frustrations clear in the strongest possible terms as per the statement. Who are you expecting them to complain to?

    What else can they feasibly do? They don't decide on the allocation split.

    We are not going to cut Celtic's allocation. We are not going to cut off our nose to spite our face financially.

    Is there an appeals process to challenge the decision of the administrator? Or the SPFL board just whoever made the initial decisio

    Our appeal hearing would probably be heard on 20th December.

    The west end of Hampden is the better end anyway for pubs etc so in that regard I’m not that arsed… it’s the principle of the matter. Complete and utter joke for supporters buses too and doesn’t make one iota of sense from a travel perspective for instance

    Sorry have HIBS made a statement?

    I haven’t seen it

    I can’t see anything about Hibs’ thoughts on the allocation

    I thought the allocation was only announced 1600 hours?

    Apologies if they have

    Yes, in the release regarding the prices and allocation.

    Celtic have a higher average attendance than Rangers due to their stadium being bigger. So, based on the logic applied for this final the SPFL will allocate Celtic more tickets than Rangers for any future “Old Firm” final.
    Aye right!! Neutral venue my arse!

    Not sure kicking up a stink publicly will do anything.

    Will sound like excuses before the game. It’s wrong and it’s so typical of the SPFL. But the difference between 17,500 and 22,000 (split) is probably not worth going tonto about when we can’t win.

    I would use it as a motivation privately to the players. Just like JR looks like he has done with the Porto / Ibrox witch hunt and the clear GIRUY yesterday.

    How many tickets were Hearts given for the Scottish cup final before covid I am sure it was half. Club should refuse to play the match under these conditions. Time for some Testicular Fortitude from the club.

    again, yesterday’s attendance should have nothing to do with anything. We never fail to sell out for a cup final, and have brought double the proposed 17.5k to some of them

    How can the SPFL justify the split? I don’t usually agree with the corruption allegations levelled at those in charge of our game but this decision only points to that being the case.

    It has nothing to do with excuses. It is blatantly unsporting. The statement looks like His have finished with our protestations though so it is over to the fans imo. We should certainly be bombarding SPFL media channels etc but most people who go to games will get a ticket so may be difficult to motivate them to take action

    Might actually work in our favour in a strange way. Massive underdogs, siege mentality etc. Certainly worked yesterday!

    Equal split, different body deciding though

    Doesn’t make any. It has been this way for ever, Celtic end / Rangers end. It’s just the way it is and the overwhelming number of cup final appearances between the both of them explains it.

  28. #237
    Sorry if it’s buried in the thread somewhere but do we know for sure how many tickets Celtic get?

    Yeah, god forbid a little thing like work gets in the way of you going to a game. Banned for life for missing a game eh. Guilty verdict returned by the resident .net lawyers on here.

    I agree with this. I'm mad that football is so obviously corrupt in Scotland but on the other hand a support united is far more likely when it is supporters who go regularly who will hopefully get right behind the team like yesterday

    I can see the prices and allocation on HIBS Twitter but nothing showing an official complaint from Hibernian Football Club just loads of hibbies complaining
