GBJambo Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Really can’t understand, if you can afford it and don’t have any other arrangements, why you wouldn’t want to go to a semi final. With only 2 wins away from 1 of 2 trophies we have any chance of winning. And the whole point is hoping to see your team win trophies, this really should be a sell out .

il Duce McTarkin Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 On 12/04/2024 at 21:15, OTT said: Nobody's business but their own. Also the idea that failing to sell out 100% can and will be used against us by the SFA so they can throw more tickets at the Weegie teams is disgusting. Its a neutral venue. Failing to provide both teams 50% of the tickets fails to provide a neutral venue. If one team is happy to take a lesser allocation, fine. But the starting position needs to 50/50. Its an absolutely rotten culture thats been allowed to develop from this. Best post of the thread by a distance. I'll not be going as I'm working, otherwise I'd have been watching at home with the kids. They're a bit young for Hampden just yet, but it's important to keep up the indoctrination. Maybe next year.

Armageddon Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 There should also be a thread ‘Reasons to not contribute to FoH’, even £1 a month. 8000 contributors. 20k+ going to Hampden. Surely we can get to 10k some day soon. 18k season tickets and a huge waiting list, is it just laziness? Folk being tight? Or a genuine poverty situation? The 8k figure has never added up to me.

blairdin Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I'm going. I don't blame anyone for choosing not to though. £30-£40 a ticket to sit in the worst stadium in Scotland in terms of seeing the action on the pitch, whilst listening to the sectarian bile pouring out of the Rangers end (of a supposedly neutral stadium). Semi finals are occasions any more, more often than not the atmosphere is poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also working that day. The cost of the semi tickets were laughable. The behaviour of OF fans in & around Glasgow is also another reason that’s put me off. Have previous in encounters with both sides that almost ended in scrapping. Fair enough to folk that dont like atnosphere but good and bad in both weegie supporters, my old man 78 was once put in hospital jumped by on way home by orcs at home cup game in 86, and has been involved in worse altercations in his younger days though there and at home, my son who was through with mate and bus on the infamous friday night 2014 he was only 20 as orcs started attacking our fans in the abandoned game and was given a sore face I was livid as I was working, and as 55 year old have been through to both grounds involved in many scrapes with both over years and never been arrested not a troublemaker in slightest, but stood my ground, won some lost some following the famous but will it stop any three off us going sunday worried if we win it will kick off outside as its glesca, not a chance. I follow my club keep safe, everyone safety in numbers and if worried don't wear colours and Im waiting on knee reconstruction but I ll be there and I pray for win.

Ticket, transport, food etc. Imagine having a family of 3/4. Plus there are season tickets to renew. I'm sure some are choosing not to go for various reasons but when you boil it down it's an big expensive for some who might just not be able to afford it This is me. Normally not a problem to buy tickets for away days and cup days and have never missed a semi or a final whenever we've been there - but renewing our season tickets last week and other commitments this month mean I simply don't have the spare cash at this time and will need to miss it. It is a big expense when I'd be brining my kids along and would be looking at £200 by the time I'd bought tickets drove through and paid for parking food and drink. Aye you can skip the food and drink but I'm not gonna deny my kid a hot dog or a pie so... Aye... 😂 £15 on a month's ViaPlay looking the likely solution!

The key is not to return tickets to the SFA unsold to protect our future allocation. Rather than getting the fine the media is going on about give the SFA all the money and distribute the excess tickets to good causes.
