Appear to have identified celtic fans trying to buy tickets in the home section.
 

Fair play for being pro active and not just letting it happen. Why someone would want to sit in a different section to their own team is bizarre anyway.

Look at the carnage caused when they infiltrated our home support last game. Good on UTD for trying to sort it

The trouble with the Celtic support (and their a*se cheek siblings) is that they have a large machine in place to obtain, or forge, tickets for away games that most clubs do not have the infrastructure to counter.

 

I remember my ticketless bluenose colleague (an intelligent man otherwise) saying that he (and his brother) obtained tickets for Manchester 2008 UEFA final by mugging some drunks of their tickets.  Callous.

Theyll get in.

 

Guy I work with has only missed 1 Derby in the last 6 years at ER. He's never had a ticket to access the away end. Amazing how little minimum wage stewards actually care/pay attention.

Surely a contradiction?

It’s an easy fix - For games against the old firm fans should require a purchase history of at least 10 games against non old firm sides..

Just tell the vermin to nip along to Lochee, 20 min walk from Tannadice, they'll be more than welcome to that shit hole full of scabby ira loving tramps !image.png.e021477dd627f18939c40d328f6fe7df.png

I suppose if your team is 99% likely to officially win the title in that game and you can't get a ticket in the away end then it probably doesn't seem odd to get a ticket for the home end. Even going back to the 80s, I wish clubs, including us, had taken a harder line with interlopers but I can understand why they didnt.

I wouldn’t normally say this but they could clinch the league on Wednesday so there is more logic this time

More than a few Hearts fans in the home end at Anfield I recall. Always going to happen in big games like that when the demand for tickets from the home side isn't there.

A few Hearts fans in the home end at Fir Park when Motherwell played Celtic midweek, April 1986.

I say it every time, what would they say/do if we went in their home end? Yet they think it’s ok to do it everywhere else. Self entitled pricks.

I have to say, if this was Hearts clinching the title and our end was sold out, your damn right I’d be trying to get in the home end. By hook or by crook I’d be seeing that game.

I used to work in Lochee, and it really is a Celtic-boaby-suckfest.  A handful of United fans, but lots more green and white than you would expect. 

 

As as aside, a good few years ago we went on a shite pub crawl taking in the worst of the worst, starting in Lochee and working our way down Lochee Road, through the town and up Albert Street (before collapsing in a heap).  As part of that, had a drink in both Kelly's and Sandy's bar, and they are both utter scummy shiteholes, which now completely makes sense after reading your post.

I dare say there will be a few Hearts fans in the Manchester United end at Old Trafford next season  as well :smuggy:

Never been in an away end but, in the 80s, I once drove up from Sheffield with a weegie Celtic-supporting mate, each with a ticket for our own section. We parked on London Road and my mate insisted we have a pint in the Celtic supporters club there. I had my Hearts scarf in my inside coat pocket. All going ok until he came back from the bar chatting to another of his mates, handed me a pint and said "do you not notice that when you're watching Hearts". Luckily, the volume of noise was such that even I could barely hear him, the stupid *******.

 

Never been back to Parkhead since. Life's too short.

Hopefully you didn't buy a polo t-shirt or donate a pound for a bullet at the time of your monumental piss up 😉

Apparently the historical reason is that hundreds of Irish immigrants moved to Dundee to work in the jute industry. The majority settled in Lochee and nicknamed it Little Ireland. Locals for a long time said that Lochee was different from Dundee. Much like Leith and Edinburgh. Might not be completely historically accurate but that's the jiste of it.

After stumbling through the doors of some of them, it was more of a monumental **** up, rather than a monumental piss up...!  I think I was in Kelly's for less than 15 minutes, total, and it was about 15 minutes too long.    Should really have twigged by the existence of Lochee Harp that the area was Selliky.

 

The Logie Bar further down the road was surprisingly nice though.  Broke the pub crawl rules and stayed for a couple of games of pool :lol:

Have been in the Celtic home end v Hearts before as I have a couple of Tim pals. Don't see the issue with it if there are spares and people behave themselves.

As a final year student at Dundee Uni I went to the 1988 SC Final between Utd and Celtic. Celtic had the north terrace, the east terrace, pretty much all of the south stand and Utd had the covered west terrace. There were definitely a couple of throusand Celtic fans in the Utd end congregated nearest to where the west and north terraces meet. Polis did hee haw to get them out.

Treacherous behaviour... 

Report to Tynecastle Park Friday Midday for your punishment.

I await them crying foul and being victimised if any are refused entry to the home stands tomorrow night, and police brutality.

They done the same for the 1990 Cup Final too, Aberdeen scattered them as they left and the dons celebrated. Maybe only a handful but enough to raise the suspicion, especially the dork with the celtic scarf tied around his waist.* 

 

* Information from Aberdeen fan I knew back then.

I've drawn the line at going in the home end at Easter Road, to be fair, and there are always plenty of spares there :clyay:

Thankfully we won both. One was the Duffy helicopter day.

I was at the Aberdeen end when they beat celtic 3-1 in the final when a young Martin Buchan was the aberdeen captain.

 

Midway during the 2nd half, a group of around 100 young celtic neds stormed the barrier and made their way behind the goals to do battle with the aberdeen supporters.

 

It was splendid.  They took an absolute battering from the aberdeen supporters and the polis.  The whole episode probably took less than 3 minutes.  They were frogmarched out the ground to face the scales of justice but not before aberdeen scored again to complete their misery.

 

Buchan's performance won him a transfer to Man Utd.

The only time the late Eddie Turnbull won the cup as a player or manager.

Brilliant... self entitlement gets you know where apart from a skelp accross the jaw and a boot up the arse. 

 

I know the 70s Boot Boy thing was to take ends or in this case occupy the oppositions end but its good to read the Aberdeen lot didn't stand for any nonsense. 

 

Aberdeen had a good team back then though and did Jim Hamiltons Dad not get a winners medal that day too ?

Indeed. 

 

West Ham are 3 pts behind with a game in hand, but that game is City, then they both have mid-table sides (Brighton and Palace) to finish.

 

Would take a very impressive finish from the Hammers or a total collapse from Man U to deny them the place.

After watching Man Utd's non-performance against Brighton last Saturday evening, then I for one, wouldn't be surprised if they failed.

Don’t like praising the sheep shaggers Doug but that was very impressive against a team about to play its 2nd European Cup final 4 days later. Good to hear the Celtic neds got slapped silly too 😂
