Angus_Young Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 2 hours ago, Parklife said: They kinda have. All we've heard is how great "the journey" has been. Well, that's all we heard for the first 2 seasons anyway, Rangers fans seemed to enjoy it less when Hearts romped to the title and Motherwell scudded their team in the play-offs. That 'all' you've heard? I think you are being pretty selective with your memory sir. I dont doubt some of our fans spouted that sort of garbage, but the vast majority wanted us back in the top division as soon as possible and were tortured with what was being served up every week. Certainly wasn't an enjoyable journey, last season aside. Only an idiot wouldn't have wanted us back competing properly for main trophies and European places.

I think you are being rather selective with your memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Rangers & Celtic fans have been lost without each other. It's like some kind of abusive dependent relationship. Shows how ridiculous they are. They hate each other yet don't really have a meaning without the other. The Sid Vicious & Nancy Spungen of football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Was at a meeting with Partick Thistle fans and board and we have a dependable number of 2400 Home fans including U16's who are free with crowds increasing occasionally and then we have Away fans to bump it up. Pretty disappointing number. They don't give out season ticket numbers though. https://ptfc.co.uk/season_tickets/prices/ Prices frozen. £308 for renewal. £319 early bird. I'm getting 5 home games "free" which is decent price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenAngus Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Aberdeen broke 10k last week. No early bird incentive to buy early so could go a bit higher yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest question by the way, just wanted to know if it felt more secure/safe standing there with a rail in front of you. Assuming yes, would love to see it introduced around the country but cost will probably stop it for most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BlueGaz Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 We only have 23 tickets left now for sale, outside of family section. Not sure how many that equates to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we are limited to 43,500 full season tickets as we account for the arrangements for the games against Celtic. If that is indeed the case we will have sold 43,477 season tickets.

The ticket office were absolutely bricking it around April time due to lack of interest, we knew they would be promoted from around last xmas, so how do you work that out exactly? 13000 fans didn't come to CP to see Brendan Rogers paraded because of a 4 year old rival.

To be fair, I'll expand slightly, a guaranteed ticket for both old firm games is a pretty good selling point. Last season you would be able to pick up a ticket for any game, so if you miss even 2 or 3 games a season, as many of us do, theres no real value in a season ticket.

You think people are paying circa £500 for two games against Sevco? Fair enough. I noticed that you didn't bother to answer my question but if that's what you honestly believe then ok.
