I'm assuming, then, that if we sell out our allocation this season, having done so last season, that next time we'll be trusted just to sell our allocation rather than have to provide up front payment? Or do the Tims require up front payment too?

Aye I meant I don't understand why we had to underwrite those South Stand upper sections though, ie could they not have been left free and if we didn't sell out then they could be handed to neutrals who wish to experience a Scottish Cup final and have agreed to wear red on the day. But, I think I answered my own question in that presumably they can't be segregated.

£50 a ticket is absolutely fucking horrendous though.

We are getting section Q in South upper which wasn’t an option for semi final.

I don't understand how our initial allocation for the semi-final was 19,000 for the north stand, east and south lower, yet this is over 20,000 with similar sections. I can only guess that it includes sections of the south upper that they can't give to Celtic due to segregation, so the SFA probably wanted to give Celtic the whole of the north stand. Fair play to the club for not standing for it. If we only sell 18,000 then so be it. We shouldn't be handing over the whole of the north stand for a 'neutral' cup final, it's the only stand that will have vocal fans on top of the action. I won't cry many tears for Celtic fans who have seen their team win 24 trophies in the last 10 years missing out on a ticket for yet another cup final. They'll get plenty of chances over the next 10 years to see more finals.
