    Bugger, I was hoping to get a place in the shed. ☹️

    Personally, when I gave up my season ticket because of work shifts and match dates being changed for umptein (cant print t e e n ) reasons, I sat at the back of the Jerry Kerr (great view)

    That became a no-go area for whatever reason, so moved to top tier GF (another good view, with minor grumblin')

    Not sure about stewarding issues, segregation etc, but I would like to give away fans the whole JK and nothing else, numbers might be similar to fair play and shed (not sure) But......... we would have fans at both ends and Sandeman Street which seems to make a difference.

    I'm sure there will be reasons why this can't happen, but, I have no idea what they might be.

    Losing a few quid against losing a match at home should never really come in to it...

    Just sayin'

    Clubs, officials, etc are all still in their bubbles, so that's where all the players who aren't in the squad etc will be sitting

    Thanks for that.... I was talking long term though. Fair Play it is for them then... ET ful, Shed 30ish I don't care.

    There is nothing worse (well maybe there is) than being dominated in your own stadium by away fans.

    Anything that can be done to stop that is a big bonus. Taking a wee financial hit to let the fans motivate the team as we have seen has to be a good idea. Further up the table, mair money etc etc....

    Over the course of a season though this could cost us hundreds of thousands of pounds.

    Celtic,Rangers and The FUN will more or less sell out their allocation,The Sheepies would probably too and Hearts&Hibs would bring good numbers too.

    It's a hell of a lot of 4rses on seats that would be missing so we could get a few hundred in the Shed. Especially when that couple of hundred would come out of two home ends.

    Financial suicide IMO.
