Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
I'm kinda feeling the same - why bother responding to these idiots?
Because it’s funny. Genuinely funny.
It had potential but didn't quite hit the spot.

It’s laughable and tbh I wish celtic hadn’t even responded.

I have my doubts if it’ll get the go ahead, but if it does it’s a bit of a shame. Going to ibrox and winning is as good as it gets. The sense of spectacle will be reduced too. Their own stupidity is killing them.
I am thinking along the same lines. We needn't have responded that early because it won't matter a feck to what happens on the pitch. In reality, they aren't our competition and we don't actually need to bother with them; Celtic could have released more tickets as-and-when they had to.

Having that many of them there made it better when we were administering a doing.

I am surprised their board did it to be honest. It's more pandering and distraction but I didn't think they actually were brave enough to take on another fight within Scottish football. Their fans asked for it and their board delivered it. It is (rabid) fan-service but if they favour them and their cash good luck to them.

As I said, don't see it making any difference in the medium term. Just fewer Celtic fans seeing more currant buns sneaking out early from Ibrox.

On the back of them creaming themselves that Skrtel was coming to "he's too old, he done", seen this,

Two Huns in a restaurant and one asks for the steak.
The waiter says they have no steak.

The Hun replies "Didn't want it anyway".



P.S. This never happened. Who's ever heard of Hun in a restaurant with waiters!
What do you call a hun with a bottle of champagne? WAITER!

Maybe it's a ploy to have it inevitably rejected on safety and security grounds. Then they can adopt a siege mentality, rail against the tarriers etc running the government, GCC and polis scotland.

It would be hilarious if we were subsequently allowed to cut their allocation while we planted our flag in the free broomloan.

Conversely, circa 7,000 less huns at Celtic Park for Glasgow derbies for the foreseeable future.

I don't see how any Celtic fan can be disappointed with today's news, apart from those who are genuinely obsessed with Sevco to the point of pity.

What about the ones that go to away games? Would bet that the last couple of seasons these games have been amongst the highlights.

The idea that Celtic should accommodate 7,000 zombies while they cut our allocation to 800 is nonsense.

The quick and to the point response from the club is exactly what was required.

Is there any financial gain in this move?
They , like us already sell season tickets for these areas, and make up the shortfall on these with 2 x £50 games.

As GIUY , it works, pointless squirrel from the hun
The whole fetid organisation is close to collapse, King has nothing left but a Trump like appeal to the base instincts of your average hun

The ideal scenario would be the safety certificate story being true and our allocation reinstated and theirs still cut. I live in hope 😂

Celtic fans who go to all away games, or who enjoy going to Ibrox in the hope we give them a pumping in their own midden, are understandably disappointed.

People who kid on games against Sevco are just like any other game are dull try-hards.

No strategy, no vision, no refinement, nae class. On top of which, nae money.

The only thing their board excels in is pandering to the lowest common denominator of their support.

By the time we’re due to meet them at Ibrox in December they’ll be so far behind they won’t be able to give tickets away with discounted orange Hummel jerseys.

When they eventually acknowledge the reality of terminal decline and permanent mediocrity (give it a couple of seasons at most), they’ll be begging Celtic to take tickets for the main and Govan stands, just as they did in the 80s. Hope we reply with an especially dignified “No, thanks”.

The thing is we're actually set up to shove them into the corner as the approach would be no different and we've already got two sets of big steel gates allowing us to move them into the corner.

There's actually a chance we reciprocate, and they're not allowed to go through with it but we do.

Having read it a couple of times, I don't think that statement says what they think it does.

I'm happy to be corrected but I'm fairly sure that a chunk of the Broomloan didn't have season books so they could extend the away section if needed. I'm willing to believe this is what that statement was intended to refer to.

That there's no mention at all of the games against directly makes me think this is a badly worded release that's going to cause serious bother once they have to go back on it.

The Celtic statement is quite vague also as I'm willing to bet they've not been informed of any changes.

You don’t need to be obsessed with the huns to acknowledge the fact that it’s a unique fixture and it’ll be a shame that their stupidity is ruining it to an extent.

Don't you think that Liverpool FC might just be a few notches ahead of us in any potential future alliance with Boston Celtics? :ponder:
FSG own the Red Sox, but not the Celtics. One of their co-owners (James Pallotta) is also a co-owner of Roma.
I won't go into too much but met with a chap (hun) who knows him very well.

Long story short, he's asked the Roma guy about investing in huns.

Said he'd looked at SPL and with the huns he calculated to make dosh...
60/80m (and) average 15m per season to achieve (hopefully) last 16 and therefore see a return of sorts on investment.

So in short, without TV money it's a no go.
He wouldn't touch them and besides he bought into Roma so he could get his hands on the training ground. (Which he turned into flats)

Only attended one Roma game in 5 or six years.

What is the league rules regarding allocation- is it a fixed number or a % of capacity?
