SkySports won’t be holding anyone to ransom on this. They have plenty English matches they’ll slip in to cover. Celtic will want that, Rangers not so much.

dannymack Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 If you've paid with a debit/credit card and the event is not played or shown on that particular date and time you are allowed to claim your money back however in this case the event will still be played out but admittance to the event has been prevented so I don't know where the claim lies on that part.

Might sound a bit contradictory given my moaning about potentially having this freedom taken away from me, but as you well know, going for the sake of going in a massively reduced capacity totally detracts away from what going to the football is really about. It's a lot more than just going to watch 22 men kick a ball around a park for 90 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop ruining a moan In other news and not directed at You DH: The Ambulance service will be/are running at 175% capacity, to function they operate at 60% to allow for 20% for staff absences and major incidents. 175% means they cannot function. We don’t need fans putting pressure on those services. The comments online about “Fight this Hearts, **** Nicky” are totally chronic.

Andrew Stevenson Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 I phoned the ticket office a few days ago and they said there were derby tickets left but they are not selling them at the moment.
