I’d shrink it further. Give them the exact number they give us. I’d agree with this - give them the minimum percentage we are required to by the rules. If it’s 1% so be it give them 1% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
We Can But Worry Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 4 hours ago, JALBO said: Count with a little over 24 hours to go: Wheatfield 36 Roseburn 523 Main 00 Gorgie 14 Total left 573 Just a word of caution - I think the club removed about 175 seats en-masse from section H during the early part of the afternoon. I was online when it happened and saw all the blocks being taken together, so I can only imagine this was the club's doing. It may be they had a need for such a sizable chunk of tickets - but it may be that they have been held back for some reason and are still to be sold. 2335 update Wheatfield 28 Roseburn 462 Main SOLD OUT Gorgie 9 Total left 499 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not against trying it mind you! As you said above though, every stadium has it's own particular layout so we need to allow for L and M in the Roseburn for away supports to suit facilities etc. Of course, we could easily give them M only and put the segregation up at L if demand is good. 700 Max. If it's good enough for them to give us then we should reciprocate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 1% - so with that as the precedent we should offer them 200 being an equal offering to the amount we are offered there. Same with Rangers.

Homme Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 There will be some no doubt. 200 might be a bit melodramatic.
