Seen somebody mention our sales for this yesterday so had a look and think this could be our worst away support at any game in a long time - be lucky if we have 300 there tomorrow.

Quite impressed that we’ll have at least sold the full lower for tomorrow come kick off. After last week I didn’t think we’d bring much more than 1k. Guess the chance it’s our last away game with any meaning this season might have swung a few extra

The rangers songbook at ER has been noticeably worse post Covid possibly due to their fans not being at Celtic Park twice a season so seeing this as being the next best thing. Think that’s a really good statement from the club and imo we should be giving them the equivalent percentage of the ground after the split (if we make top 6) as we’ve been given at Ibrox at the end of the month. Think that would be something like 300 so stick them up in the top corner of the stand.

I don’t think they have to be fair. Foley is only taking a 24% stake and doesn’t have any plans for more (to be fair most likely because nobody would be willing to sell)

He recognised it when we last played Celtic and kept a clean sheet.

We were supposed to have Rangers at home on the weekend of the league cup final which has been moved to the end of January and then we have moved our game away at St Johnstone from the 30th to the 16th of December. So should’ve been slightly better at 4/6

If you’ve already got tickets for games through the ballot and they end up being for a different game on the same day that Scotland are playing then you’ll not be able to buy through the ssc as you can only have tickets for one game each day.

He’d done things like that about 3/4 times already. Was just waiting on that coming. An issue just as big as the defensive problem on that viewing for QP is that they’ve been absolutely toothless up top. Last season Simon Murray would’ve had at least a couple of goals in that first half.

If the game doesn’t go ahead it won’t be because of the pitch.

Uefa having a laugh that there’s no var in this. How we’ve not got either of those penalties is crazy

That’s tomorrow sold out. Glad we gave Villa the minimum so that as many of our fans are getting along

That’s the first batch of away tickets sold out. Didn’t think they’d go so quickly. Think we’re looking like taking 1100/1200

They’ll drop off again unless people are deciding to book now. That tie will likely be close so would be extremely risky

Happy enough with that football wise. Bit of a pain having to wait to be able to try book though. Stockholm would be a great trip

I think Djurgardens or Luzern is probably our most likely chance of getting through. Plzen is an interesting one because they made it to the groups of the Champions League last year but ended up miles off the pace in the league so no idea what they’d be like. This season is only Arouca’s third back in the top flight and the last few years the Portuguese teams outside of the big 4 haven’t done very well in Europe

When the non league English team signed him they tried to get away with it by having him just appear in the lineup for a game from nowhere. Surely if EK were mental enough to sign him they’d realise that teasing the signing like this would lead to maximum backlash. As it is it wouldn’t surprise me if they get a few disgruntled sponsors on the phone off the back of the tweet.

They’ve ran through the English scores but still not mentioned the Rovers v Spartans game at all. Surely someone on the panel knows the game has happened

Aiken seems to be rated probably only second to Laidlaw in that squad by Kean etc and was supposedly close to signing for Hull in January. O’Connor has looked good when I’ve seen him and is absolutely rapid so he’ll cause defences problems at Championship level if Airdrie make it there. Had Liam Scales all over the place when we beat Aberdeen 6-0.

I assume you were all as angered when they done this for the Porteous red card against you that we appealed last season? There’s been at least 3 reds for almost identical tackles so far this season so there was never any hope of them overturning it.

Hopefully we can keep the score down as we’ve got a much better gd than the teams below us at the moment.

That’s correct. It’s actually an increase on last season’s semi prices when the other game was us against Hearts. Both clubs have seen the old firm sellout as a way of making a bit of extra cash at the expense of your own fans. All of this was entirely predictable though, the kick off time for the BBC game has been the exact same every year for over 10 years now so this game was always going to be at 12:15 on the Saturday. Given the prices they’ve agreed to, the Falkirk and Caley Thistle boards should have been lobbying for the game to be played elsewhere to at least make it a better day out for the fans that go along. Even with it being at Hampden they shouldn’t be selling any North Stand tickets to keep the fans closer together. There’s going to be 3 pockets of fans in each end with massive gaps between them all which will make any decent atmosphere impossible

The remaining sections of the West are available for Cyprus as well. Looks like they are bringing a small enough number to fit them in the Main Stand somewhere

RIP Ron. Hopefully we can give him a fitting tribute before the rangers game.

Regen winning would be worse for the country than Forbes. If there was any appetite for Alba party policies people would’ve voted for them at the last election. She’d be fighting every election as a referendum and on the basis of the right wing route she’d be taking the SNP would have absolutely no chance of getting close to half the vote.

The fact she’s said she wouldn’t overturn it now is pretty much irrelevant. Coming out with that statement when trying to become leader of a party that’s positioned itself as “centre left” is never going to go well.
