Idiot Stewards In Celtic Park

Bought home tickets as I couldn't get sorted from the FAI and when I went to sit in my seat the steward was standing in front of it and there was a ribbon going all the way up the row of seats where I had bought 2 for. The steward tells me I can't sit in my seat and to go somewhere else. It was a pain in the hole I must admit and its something the SFA will be hearing about from me personally. I thought it was a bloody disgrace to sell me tickets they couldn't honour, what a joke.

Aye whit is it folk no sitting in there right seats the last 3 away games l have went to some other in my seat feck off sit in your own seat it's no difficult

Used to be you never sat in your allocated seat at away games as people like to sit with their mates - even had the head of SFA security tell me to go wherever I wanted in the San Siro as he knew we never sat in our allocated seats at away games. However, that's changed over the years I've been going - I think mostly since the 'friends and family' facility became available on the website making it easier to buy tickets for other SSC members.

That's pretty dreadful mate. Did you find somewhere to watch the match from? Embarrassing to treat paying supporters like that (even more so with the away fans given the great patience and hospitality that was shown to us in Germany by their home fans).

Agree. Dortmund was a shambles, can't remember what section it was off the top off my head but you couldn't walk up and down the aisles due to folk just standing watching the game and knows how many folk were squeezed into per seat in the same section

The stewards all around Celtic Park were useless. I couldn't find my turnstyle before the game (I was struggling as they didn't seem to be going in sequential order), and the steward who was paid to be there equally had no idea.

Likewise at Dalmarnock train station, faced with two queues outside the station, presumably one for eastbound and one for westbound I asked another steward what queue it was for eastbound. Equally he had no idea and told us to just pick one and guess.

And these people are responsible for our safety? They're on minimum wage, most of them clearly don't give a toss about their job, so why bother with them?

I've had this with the SFA before. They sold me tickets for the West Stand section A at Hampden for the friendly vs Austria during the Berti years. They then decided not top open this section due to poor ticket sales & relocated anyone that had bought tickets there to the main stand. The only problem was, they forgot to tell half the fans that had bought the tickets that this was what they were doing.
