CowdenConvert Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Hearts were given the same allocation as some European clubs have had in the past which included part of the Broomloan Road stand. There was a bit of bother with objects getting thrown from both sections and since that game the police have decided away allocations are limited to 1,000. Since the Dumbarton game the extra allocation Hearts were given is now used as a 'buffer zone' between the rival supports and so far has cut back on any trouble in that areaWhy do you need a buffer zone in a stadium with thousands of empty seats? Segregation should be simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 So The Rangers will have less fans at Tynecastle than we did? Pleasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aylo vanal Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Absolutely no problem with Hearts cutting the allocation. The Home clubs have a responsibility to their support and should always look after their interests Same as most Rangers fans I've spoke too, hopefully we can keep the crowds up for a few years.

No8. Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 So The Rangers will have less fans at Tynecastle than we did? Pleasing. Hearts will have more fans at their home game than they did against Falkirk. It is their home game and should be about their support getting behind the club when they are needed most and not about how many tickets Rangers get or any away team for that matter.

Elixir Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 They cut our allocation in Burley's season, it didn't last long then I doubt it will last long this time either. Your allocation was actually cut for three seasons: the second match of 2005-06, plus all of 2006-07 and 2007-08. We'll be back in the top flight next year while you continue to flounder in the Championship, so I wouldn't worry about it. Hearts were given the same allocation as some European clubs have had in the past which included part of the Broomloan Road stand. There was a bit of bother with objects getting thrown from both sections and since that game the police have decided away allocations are limited to 1,000. Since the Dumbarton game the extra allocation Hearts were given is now used as a 'buffer zone' between the rival supports and so far has cut back on any trouble in that area Although your fans only seem to turn up in numbers to see the famous Heart of Midlothian - as our game was your highest crowd of the season by the proverbial mile - but seeing as there was still about 8,000 empty seats I don't see why we can't just be allocated half the lower Broomloan plus the corner. You don't sell season tickets there anyway. Hearts will have more fans at their home game than they did against Falkirk. About the same, actually.

MONKMAN Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Why do you need a buffer zone in a stadium with thousands of empty seats? Segregation should be simple. The Rangers fans certainly shouldn't be allowed to use the section above the away fans at ibrox. Their behaviour has demonstrated this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1875 Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Cause boycotting the game will help Fat Sally and his team; walk out of the tunnel and it's maroon on all four sides of the stadium, not a speck of blue in the house (except for jeans and one or two Jambos in everyday clothing that just happens to be blue) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elixir Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 I'd love it if the Sevco decided to chuck the toys out the pram yet again and "boycotted" a la Tannadice a couple of seasons back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Selective boycott of certain fixtures. Are you sure it's not just because you're utterly shite and nine points behind the league leaders? A bit like the reason why your glory hunting moron fans have walked away in their numbers from Ibroke. Will still be going through too even if it means having to settle for a ticket in the home end. You have no chance. The match is almost sold out already and you have to be on our database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
