    I saw we have done this for Rangers, mainly as retaliation and the fact we will sell 6000 tickets for an Old Firm match to Celtic fans but I hope we don't follow suit and lower it to the minimum for all clubs, especially when we get lower teams in the cup and their fans fancy at day out at Celtic.
    I understand why we are doing it to Rangers but having no away fans can ruin the atmosphere for a match.
    Rangers have announced 899 tickets for away teams. I am surprised it is allowed to be so low. Surely minimum of 1000 or 10% of the tickets whichever is the larger. Rangers are also doing it knowing other clubs will not follow suit (apart from us) as many cannot afford to, although Hibs and Aberdeen may do it out of spite.

    Celtic have now cut theirs.

    I wonder what will happen to those on restricted season tickets? I guess they will get the option of paying an additional premium to get it unrestricted now? I doubt Celtic will just give them the games for free.

    I’m sure the away corner holds 1800 max? That’s more than enough for them if they’re cutting ours to 900.

    I don't care how many we give them due to how they have treated our fans but I just Celtic to do the same to others.

    I'd give them no more than they give us , stick them in that * wee corner out the road, would rather more of our fans got to the game than theirs.

    I'd happily allow none after the way they treat our place.

    Not a chance we will, or should, give them double what we get. 899 or less.

    There hasn't been an "Old Firm" match since 2012 and there won't be one again.

    The Glasgow derby between ourselves and Sevco or ourselves and Partick Thistle should be for Tims only.

    No way should they receive even 1 more ticket than what we're given for Snake mountain. If i had my way i wouldn't allow any of them to desecrate Paradise with their presence.

    Exactly. rangers died whether they admit it or not. It should be every Celts duty to fight their propaganda until the day we die.

    If they believe they are still the original Rangers rather than the Glasgow version of FC United of Manchester then it is more fun to see them upset about us thumping them on the pitch. Keep em dreaming and we keep them crying.

    The fairest solution is to give Sevco/ Celtic supporters exactly half the stadium each..

    They can attend the first half and we can have our party for the second half... most of them leave at half time anyway ;-)

    This action is down to us constantly pumping them, seething at the fact Celtic out sing and out play them at ibrox. They have been greetin about this for months how with our allocation they are fed up of the tarriers out singling and taking over the place as they put it on the forums. Ha Ha the mighty Rangers eh!! boo hoo the taigs are out singing us on our own turf!!

    Breaking there back with there own stick :nonono:

    Its a shame because it does take away a bit of edge to the game. Personally it will last 1 game at theres until a full riot after we pump them 8-0 and our 800 supporters out sing them and the police cant keep them at bay or keep anyone safe. They are animals.

    7000 sets of beads rattling is too loud and puts their players off their game.. so only 900 allowed in,, and NO BEADS please.. that is an unfair sporting advantage

    Why cant we just have no sevco fans at home? Is it the TV deal?

    Id rather we had * none of them,and for our fans to not have to go to the shitpit.

    Really hope it's just the huns allocation that's cut as there's no reason for us to deprive fans of other clubs the chance to support their team.
