Any retrospective action on diving would require the referee to admit after the match that they did not see the dive, however that now cannot be the case if every penalty incident is reviewed by a referee. We’ve had red cards issued by VAR rescinded so I have zero faith. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennett Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) Not sure how reliable Football Scotland is. Rangers are set to demand 700 tickets from Celtic for the second Old Firm derby of the season even if the Hoops turn down their allocation for Celtic Park. It was revealed earlier today that Celtic would say no to the 700 on offer for Ibrox in September with the club having fears over safety after bottles were thrown in the past. Rangers have made the same complaints about Celtic Park in the past and the two clubs have been in discussions over the number of away fans at games. Rangers CEO James Bisgrove claimed earlier this year it was impossible to offer more than 700 this season but Celtic say they want more or they will reject any briefs. It means the game on September 3 is likely to see the entirety of Ibrox be home fans as the row rumbles on but the Glasgow Times report that Rangers expect to be offered the same amount no matter what when they travel across the city to Celtic Park on December 30 Edited July 27, 2023 by bennett 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m also not sure why you’ve put “giants” in quotation marks as it’s not something I’ve said. Edited July 27, 2023 by AJF 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely hope you do accept them as it’s just another game where you watch your team most likely lose to Celtic and another reminder of why the allocations were culled in the first instance Edited July 27, 2023 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ETA somehow “twats” autocorrects to “tests” Both players you referred to have less of a global reputation in football than Gerrard and he took a job there when they were in a far worse state. Both played for the old club at Ibrox as well so any link of them to Newco wouldn't be too outlandish a stretch. Seems to me that you've got a bit overly angry about Rangers again and slevered all down yourself and over your keyboard or mobile device. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I genuinely hope you do accept them as it’s just another game where you watch your team most likely lose to Celtic and another reminder of why the allocations were culled in the first instance Yes it’s the same rule, and last season when Celtic indicated they wouldn’t be taking their Ibrox allocation, Rangers reciprocated by doing the same. It seems, however, they may choose not to reciprocate. The rule states that an offer of tickets must be made available to the away team, so Rangers would be doing absolutely nothing wrong by accepting even if Celtic don’t accept theirs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it’s not as if we would be poaching the worlds best talent here. I’m sure Nerlinger has been out of a job since 2012 or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
