Rangers arrogance over Celtic allocation will come back to bite and Hoops should say Broomloan or nothing - Hotline
Celtic and Rangers are in European action but there’s still plenty to squabble about on the home front.
Ibrox managing director Stewart Robertson stating the clubs will allow 800 away fans in to Old Firm games has sparked another fight in the ongoing ticket wars – with the Hoops hitting back and insisting no decision has been made.
Arrin Geddes, Irvine, said: “John Hartson was 100 percent right, the Rangers board and fans could no longer stomach watching 7000 Celtic fans consistently celebrating at Ibrox so spat the dummy.”
Bill Lockerbie, Northampton, said: “I'm disappointed my team hasn't risen above the issue by maintaining the status quo and honouring years of tradition. After the 3-0 drubbing, the only downside was that there were no opposition supporters inside to suffer the humiliation. I suppose that could be Stewart Robertson’s real reason.”
Dean Riley, Cathkin, said: "I’m loving the way Celtic have called out Stewart Robertson. What arrogance for him and Rangers to think they can just click their fingers and Celtic will come running. Stick your 800 tickets mate. Broomloan or nothing and we’ll see whose stadium is more intimidating."
Lance Little, Erskine, said: “Like many Celtic fans I am disappointed that the club didn't tell Rangers where to shove their request to have 800 or so fans back unto the Glasgow derby matches.
“It was them who changed things so they didn't see our fans celebrating.
“Our most recent game was a fantastic occasion with a great atmosphere.
“We don't need nor want their fans back.”
Paul McArdle, Gourock, said: “Since when did Stewart Robertson start speaking for Celtic? Celtic will decide if your fans get back in our ground not you. Laughable he started this nonsense in the first place
