weeyin Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 If people don't want to come along and support the team that's up to them ,but we had 18,000 at the final and will have about 3,500 if were lucky tomorrow .A better way to make a bit of cash would be to shut the cooper stand put the fans in the east and uncle phil stands and save money on stewarding and the like . Alternatively, don't screen the game live at 2:15pm on a Sunday afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi-1991 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 I think I read somewhere that you can't. You have to have made a phone order for collection tomorrow by somepoint today. if you haven't, you're not going. just phone up the ticket office. -"mfc" -"hi, was wondering if I would be able reserve tickets for tomorrows game?" -" no, the office was open from 9am today" " yes but I didnt know that, would I be able to pick up tickets tomorrow?" -"the ticket office will be open at 9am tomorrow" -"will it be open unit kick off?" -"the ticket office will be open from 9 tomorrow" "yes, but is that till kick off?" -" i cant say, that will be at the descression of the poice" ......... nice to know our clubs got a fuckin clue and are helpful towards their support...

My post had my tongue firmly planted in my cheek. Your suggestion of closing the Cooper to save money is not a bad idea, although I'm sure there would be a lot of complaints from Cooper season ticket holders.

They have tickets and a computer, unfortunately no crystal ball. The police decide when to close the ticket office, so at this time nobody knows when it'll close..

Dave_I Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Its no her fault I know, but it wasn't an easy shift to swap and after having already managed to get the Hearts game off, I was really chuffed not to be missing this, so to find out today I'm not going is a bit of a kick in the stones, but it is what it is, my work are always very good to me when it comes to getting time off for games so I can't complain really.

Welldaft Mk1 Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Our supporters are much like the team when Rangers come to town ,they shit there drawers and fail to turn up. Sadly Postie Jim speaks the truth. If we were top of the table and playing Aberdeen there would be at least 1-1,500 extra home fans tomorrow. Grow a set of balls............

Glad the 3000-3500 Well fans do not have the same viewpoint or there would be NO home fans at Fir park. The team deserve better. Sure if you cannot afford it no problems, but there will be plenty of fans sitting on there arses when in the grand scheme of things £20 would not matter a toss. yet the team are TOP OF THE LEAGUE FFS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what you're saying. I want to see as many fans at Fir Park as you but like the average pay at the gate fan I pick and choose my games. I personally rarely attend tv matches, choosing instead to spend the money I save on as many away games as I can. When we win tho, I'll definitely wish I was there!

MFC-craig Posted August 20, 2011 Report Share Posted August 20, 2011 Last time I got excited for a game again the smelly ones was boxing day last year, that was ill-advised. No expectations at all for the game, not meaning to sound like every other negative user but we seem to have some complex that stops us from even having a go against Rangers, I wouldn't mind getting beat but going down fighting it's just that the team never seem up for it. As for fans not going to the game, why should they? Football is entertainment and if they feel they will not be entertained why should they be forced to fork out £20 for it? However I'll be there tomorrow hoping we can pull it off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I appreciate its a dear old game and I don't begrudge anybody staying away given the general tightness of dosh. Surely the players would be more fired up for an old firm game if they ran out to more fans via the OF rather than less. And surely if you're a well fan and you have limited funds the money would be better going towards our budget rather than Hibs or ICT's Tomorrow they'll have their section jam packed and they'll stand to a man for 90 mins - which is as good as a goal start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why pay £20 ( ) for something you've already paid for (in the case is ESPN). That's just stupidity. Back on topic. We will probably play outstandingly well but rangers will run up the park and score the winner (either via a break or dodgy penalty). Glorious failure as ever. Although, any points in this match are a bonus. Just need to concentrate on getting points off the other 10 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But your not just paying to watch the game. You'll be in the crowd, feeling the atmosphere and being able to cheer the team on. You never know, you might just be able to be there for a famous victory and say 'I was there!'. (Much like the 6-6 game. Although I left at 6-2...). You always remember those games more when you're there. And you won't have to listen to Craig Burley on the telly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
