    The Old Cup Final Ticket Allocation Chestnut

    Aberdeen can go and F-ck themselves if they think they are getting half the stadium. Why should Celtic fans who have attended all home games and cup games be told they cant get a cup final ticket because some wee sheepy fan who never sets foot inside Pittodire and doesnt contribute to the game at all in Scotland, wants a big day out in Glasgow ?

    Dry yer eyes Timmy - it's the national cup final in a "neutral venue". While many Tims can walk over the road, Dons have to make a lengthy round trip to watch the game live, so it's right and proper that there be an initial even allocation. Neither team will get an allocation of half the tickets any road because of the amount that'll go to corporate, and there again the Tims are likely to snap up most of them.

    If Aberdeen return a shed load of unused tickets then fair enough let Tims have a ballot for those, but in the first instance it has to be "50/50" split

    50-50 and GTF with your sense of entitlement.

    Glory hunters.
    It's miserable skinflints like them that are responsible for their team being unable to challenge for anything meaningful. If they turned up at the pen every fortnight their team might not be so utterly gash.
    Ticket allocation should be based on the difference between the percentages of normal attendances.
    Celtic, on average, fill 95% of their stadium.
    Sheep 50%
    On that basis, Celtic should get 45% more tickets than Aberdeen... 63%/37% split... and that's being generous.

    Waste of time any of that lot turning up anyway... they make a big deal of it right up until kick off then sit there as quiet as mice for the next hour and three quarters while their pish team gets torn a new ersehole by the mighty Celtic...

    Why not just play it at parkhead with Celtic fans getting to use their season tickets and lie well getting to pick the officials.
    Do you dhims really not understand the concept of a neutral cup final.
