CotterJag Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Quite funny that some people turn up their nose at £100-200k ! Our turnover is £4m so £200k is 5% so not to be sniffed at Whether its this window or the summer it’s 2/3 players Not so much turning my nose up at it, would just rather enjoy the cup for a bit and then get the 200k in a later round.

allyo Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 We could have got a rubbishy wee tie and lost. Dundee away or whatever. And we might win this. Not a lot of point in getting disappointed at this stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Jag Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 After getting a good amount of money from the league cup this season,this is another good money earner.We will probably get beat so we will be able to concentrate in staying in the league and have this cash to use in the summer.

Garscube Road End Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 They generally dont usually televise games at celtic park or ibrox is what i mean, id take £30000 any day. Aberdeen v Dundee united Hearts v St Johnstone Ayr v Sevco There have been plenty of televised games from the two scumbags shit holes.

Don’t forget ex managers in charge of both teams, one of whom was sent off for marching onto pitch to confront ref over a decision. Guess who?

Vaila Street Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Depressed when I heard the draw but on reflection news of a guaranteed windfall during the transfer window may not be a bad thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess who? Can't mind the actual game at Firhill during those glorious Bunnet years. I guess tho' you know your times up at the club when the ref calls the manager over and his own fans are chanting "OFF, OFF, OFF!" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-T-118 Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 no idea if this will work or not... following the cup draw, I sent a tweet to the club and the supporters liason officer and requested that we ask Celtic for the same allocation that Morton were given by Celtic a couple of years ago for a cup tie. Presumably they don't have season ticket commitments for that area for cup games which would allow them the option to give us that area. Going by BBC Sport figures they only had 25,000 so I wouldn't imagine they would expect to sell out against us in the next round. If in the restricted view black hole corner I would only expect us to take approx. 1000 - 1200 fans, if we were given this section of the stadium I believe more fans would willing to go along circa 2000 - 2500... Fingers crossed... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P-T-118 Posted January 27, 2018 Report Share Posted January 27, 2018 Celtic already sold tickets for behind the goal so the black hole it is... Only positive is looking on their website they have already have large sections of the stadium marked as 'sold out' so maybe a bigger crowd that we think... £££££ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motherwell Jag Posted January 30, 2018 Report Share Posted January 30, 2018 See on the official site tickets are either restricted or unrestricted which means we are in the corner again. Might have gone if they'd given us decent seats. Wonder if our club have suggested better seating or just meekly accepted what Sellick offered?

P-T-118 Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 going by the silence from the club regarding ticket sales for Saturday, it would suggest that we aren't going to sell out our initial allocation... Less than 1000 travelling across the city for a Glasgow derby - when we took approx. 1200 to Dumfries... I know some will be happy to sit on the sofa, some will be accepting defeat already and think whats the point, but my reason is the location within the stadium - RESTRICTED VIEW in an empty stadium... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggy Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 I thought about going, if they gave us a decent view like Morton had a short while ago, but I'm not paying £20 for the worst view of a football pitch in Scotland especially when on TV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We, who albeit for a different reason give Celtic the best seats in the house at Firhill, are stuck in that shitty place. btw I'm not blaming Celtic 100% as I'm far from convinced our Club (excuse the pun) fought our corner in getting a preferable vantage point.

I phoned up to book my tickets foxy- they are not selling any for restricted view - it’s all unrestricted view seats that are being sold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
