What fans group ?? Who are they ? Who are they to make the call ? Some doo gooded minority of ST holders !!! 

I'm assuming it would be the Fans Forum, plus representatives of supporters clubs. They're probably kept anonymous to stop the rest of us from moaning at them online (not that anyone would ever dream of doing that, of course).

I'm more curious about this "working group" and what their recommendations or ideas were. We've heard nothing of that. And of course these mysterious "measures" that were apparently undertaken to encourage more of us along to these games.

If this was a fan-owned club, the board would be accountable to the fans.

But again, the level of entitlement of fans who think that this is some member association is off the scale.

Last home game before the split and it should be massive now the gap looks like being 5pts, and they've handed the stadium away against a side semi-regularly dropping points away from home for a "title party" that isn't happening.

For £70k.

The reserved seats in the East stand aren’t marked. If they aren’t marked in the Main stand how will we know which seats to sit in. Will we have to go on the Saints site using our season ticket to choose a seat in advance.

Some laugh, really.

Wondering whether, since the main stand capacity virtually matches our season ticket numbers, they'll just not have a sale for non-season ticket holders (quite how home fans are meant to prove they would turn up in numbers when they get shut out the stadium i dunno), or whether they're going to give season ticket holders access to pick and "buy" a main stand seat and then shut them out a few days before the game to have an open sale of the "unsold" seats.

Either way seems an incredibly shit way to treat your home fans for the sake of a five figure sum.

But hey, at least Celtic fans get to their side.

1600 season ticket holders in East Stand.

Add in GB stand season tickets and padded GB stand and hospitality comes to around 2,700.

GB stand holds 3,000 so room for everyone.

East Stand ticket holders will have to be allocated a seat to avoid chaos.

There will be seats for everyone but I'm interested to see how they actually approach it in terms of season ticket holders.

They either, purposely, limit the amount of "PATG" sales to tiny figure or, purposely, try and restrict how many season ticket holders attend so they can raise the "PATG" numbers.

I'd be surprised if they don't want a high-ish amount of "PATG" sales as they'll know, despite their protestations, that away fans will buy some and help increase the numbers.

Generally the best case in terms of limiting Celtic fans in the home end… would be not to have a general sale to home fans.

It’s the way I expected to go but it’s not actually been confirmed by the club. Allocate all season ticket holders a seat and then that’s it.

Season ticket holders will need a reserved seat right up to kick off.

Still think a few away fans will get in GB stand but as long as they cant win the league in Perth it wont be to bad.

Although one would be too many for my liking.

There will be hundreds in the hospitality chief .

not forgetting the tubes that sell there ticket for a few bob like the rangers title win year ago .

cannae win but it should be safer in the one stand.

Your right, hospitality will be full of them.

These games always sell out even at £100 plus a head.

Would be great to win this one.
