I see there is still nothing on the website and heard nothing by email. If anyone hears anything please post ASAP, I'm sure all ST holders the same as me not on CCC are having sleepless nights too? waiting to hear when there will be a ballot etc??

Does anyone know if this is a sell out yet?? I'm just curious, I'm sitting in North Stand but was wondering as I was surprised when we originally only got 25k tickets for this.

Spoke to a woman at TO today and was told after all on CCC had been allocated tickets the remaining would be on offer to ST holders. As Frankie said, I also think there will be a ballot, the woman today didn't give much away, just said keep an eye on website. TO have always emailed before too. Surely you can't have a situation where people are queuing over night(I would be one of them to be fair) to get a brief. It would be chaos ffs??.

Apart from those on the CCC, anyone have any idea what will happen with other S/T holders?? Will they do a ballot or will it be first come first served at T/O?? Any ideas???

Fair point, it could work in our favour though?? Let the media pile on the pressure, Delila will be bricking it, he knows nobody in their hovel is playing for him and it will be night night for him it we give them a proper going over at Hampden! He won't sleep for weeks now ha ha?

Got to disagree. No way I think they are huge favourites! We are playing great football, scoring goals, have a manager the players are right behind, we believe in ourselves and have momentum! They have none of the afformentioned qualities! We will be well up for this, let's get it right up them and everyone who has tried to destroy our club!! As for the financies and the cost of their team compared to ours, one word, Leicester!

Hampden, one tie on sat and one on Sunday, reckon we will get 20k tickets each and the rest for sfa wanks and sponsors. I'm not on CCC but just need to be quick off the mark when tickets go on sale!

Yeeeeeeeeeeesssssssss! Let's get right intae the Mhanky bassa's?! Keep the Euro dream alive?!! WATP!

Last time I was at the piggery was the 1-1 game, big Jig scored with about 15 mins left, header from a corner! Absolute bedelam? Nothing beats going there, standing your ground, supporting the Bears and generally getting it right up them! I have to say I can live with them having the Broamie, I can remember when they got half the main stand and west enclosure too. Yes, you need to bathe in bleach after 90mins there but you can't beat pumping them at their shitehole??

Incredible result and brilliant performance??? the weather is shit over here but it could be raining turds for all I care, WATP!! I'm well pissed off I missed being at the match for a holiday! Hang my head in shame?Morton might do us a turn and pump the Mhanks tomorow! If not, let's have them at Hamden?

I can't make it, I have an excuse tho, I'm the canaries for a week??! Will be a real tough test for us, we will need to be a lot more clinical and direct infront of goal and keep it tight at the back, there front line could give us big problems! Will be watching the game in a bears pub over here??

When we go up next season it's Gona get magnified even more, they hate us and it's not going to get any easier. It looks like the board are starting to act like Murray and co, leaving loyal bears at the mercy of these lying, bitter Pondlife, spewing their twisted bile whenever it suits them. This country is so corrupt, it is there for all to see, surely someone, somewhere could mount an investigation into the systematic degradation and social slander that we endure solely due to the team we support and let's not kid ourselves the perception from Celtic fans that we are all Protestants. If there is a deep rooted sectarian evil at work anywhere, and one that divides us it comes straight from that lot. Over the last few years what we have had to put up with and continuall attacks on our heritage and club from both media and politicians has been nothing short of an attempt at social cleansing!

Second half performance was much better than the first, although it was like a Training game in first half as can count on one hand how many times St Mirren crossed the half way line! How Kenny Miller missed that from 5 yards I will never know?. It was right in front of me and I honestly thought it had come off the keeper as didn't think it was possible to miss?? However, job done and a lot more positive in second half, great finish from Harry Forrester and 11 points clear. A win on Tuesday night would see us go 14 points clear and you have to feel its champagne on ice time!

Checked the stadium plan this morning and I reckon it was already around 45k, so reckon we will be up near 50k anyway, it's pay week too so will get a few bears who just pay by the game coming too I would think?? Press home our advantage and keep the foot in the throat of that mob in Edinburugh!! I predict a good performance and a 3-1 win, Halliday first goal?

The very same! I ended up ten feet away from my Dad after we scored, what a strike! Leighton honestly didn't have a clue until it hit the back of the net.

A commanding performance and a good result this Saturday v Alex Rae's St Mirren would do us all the world of good and would be a mental poke in the eye for the 2nd class mhanks along the M8!

Will pop in with my Neice before game, will be a good insight into our history for her.?

Would have been 60 today and sadly taken from us way to early. I can't speak for anyone else but personally I felt he was the greatest ranger ever and was my idol growing up, still have a picture when I met him at a doo with my mum and dad when I was 10?. A true legend and a bear from the old school! My greatest memory of coop was standing in the old section "J" Rangers end under cover at Hamden behind the goal and watching that free kick as it screamed into the net v Sheep!

Yeh, been at games got S/T in BR. He has taken a few good hits, think he's started to be targeted alot too, defenders usually right on top of him. I hope MW gives him a rest Tuesday. I sit right down front of BR and have been watching him in particular since start of the year, I just feel he looks sluggish and at times even a little disinterested? Probably due to lack of confidence? Really hope MW rests him Tuesday as we got lucky today with Hibs dropping points too. He's pivotal to the run in and promotion.

Just realised that as you posted that. I can't speak for anyone else but for me he looks mentally and physically like he needs a rest. We could perhaps play a Miller or even Nicky Clark on Tuesday leving Waggy on the bench if needed.

Just to reiterate my OP, pls pls give Waggy a rest Gaffer, he really does look like he needs it. More worryingly we dropped points today which we could do without, and we could have been doing with him fresh for Tuesday. If I comes to the crunch, I would bench him on Tuesday and play O'halloran through the middle?

I actually don't mind the Friday night games, however sitting in the family section i would rather it was a Saturday afternoon as we take public transport to and from Ibrox. As some of the posts have said though, it doesn't matter what any of S/T holders or fans think, Police Scotland doing the fine job that they always do:crazy: decide its impossible to logistically arrange a game either A, sat night 17.30pm or b, Sunday 5pm for example(i imagine that would mean actually having to pay officers more to police, premium payment for Sunday working etc) so tbh while they are happy to move a Fireworks night in November to accommodate the other mob, its impossible to find a logical solution for us?? So Friday night it is. Nothing changes.

I think today would be the perfect time to give waggy a rest. If we are going to play him out wide continually then with the pitch being so tight and waggy looking jaded recently, i personally would leave him on the bench as we have cup game on Tuesday which O'Halloran and King are cup tied anyway. Give King a run out wide today and give waggy a rest.

Spot on Bruno! I wonder if he possibly thinks this too and is this in his head at times?? Just been watching him and his body language at times its as if, as you could very well be right, he would rather be playing through the middle. You would hope this isn't the case as you should be giving 100% no matter where you play, I hope that maybe he's just a bit shattered, maybe mentally and physically at the minute and he picks it back up as we head into spring and taking the title:champs:

My First post lads so its just something I've noticed the last few home games, is it just me or has anyone else noticed it?? He just seem to look a little heavy legged especially in the second half, I know the pitch isn't at its best but I have just noticed that over the last 4-5 games, really since the new year, he just doesn't seem to be himself. I sit at the front of BR and over the last few weeks I've noticed it, even at times he seems disinterested. I'm not just saying this because of last week, I have noticed it for a few weeks. Is it Just me, or does anyone else think either A, he's looking tired or B, his mind is elsewhere?? Because he doesn't look to be carrying an injury, he just looks shattered at times??
