proudtobeabuddy Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Almost 80% on here and i think if we asked every St Mirren supporter it would be similar figures are you listening BOD??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TPAFKATS Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Oh dear. The forum's prime Old Firm apologist disgraces himself again. Disgusting that any Saints fan would want to give them any tickets. Says the forum's number 1 Old Firm apologist. Its disgusting. Hang your head in shame.🤣🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum Gilhooley Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 Heres a thought. (sorry if its been covered ) What if we give the south stand to both sides of the old scum and they, either one or both dont sell out the stands ? Bringing ,lets say only 2500 in total ? Also , what if Hibs or hearts are riding high and would take an allocation of 2-2.5k ? do we do the same for them or split the west again ?

They both averaged over 3600 fans at away games last season. Unpopular, I know but I wouldn't have moved people out of the family stand. As to Hearts and Hibs Instead I would move West Stand Season Ticket Holders (I am one) into the North and South Stand. This would give us 3 out of 4 stands. Make access and egress easier.

I understand that but with the skittish nature of at least one side of the arse cheek , it is well within the realms of possibility that this could happen. They are not averse to the odd boycott just to prove the rest of scottish football would die without them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
div Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 Many of us will be old enough to remember that we used to give away about 80% of Love Street when either of the ugly sisters come to visit. In the terracing days they would get the whole away end, and the home end behind the goals, and a good chunk of the main stand and enclosure too. Originally when they were in the split home end there was only a few coppers between the two sets of fans until they eventually put in an iron fence that allowed the home end to be split in two when they visited. There was no holding fans back at the end, all the Saints fans had to leave via the Love Street end exit, along with a few thousand of their lot. It was fucking carnage.

Late 1960's , early 1970's. it looked like they occupied 99% of Love Street. All I can remember is a couple of hundred Season Ticket Holders in the Main Stand/Enclosure and another group of our Fans down the front of the North Bank. Obviously there were more scattered throughout the Stadium, but they generally remained unsurprisingly quiet, while surrounded by the Bigots.

Anybody know? Reasonable amount rather than a set amount for League matches. Scottish Cup, there is a minimum set percentage for away fans. League Cup, I dunno.

That brings back some memories. Being spat on, having a golf ball and pies thrown at me by Celtic fans. Not something I want to see repeated. There are some things much more important than money. I honestly don't know why I wasn't opposed to this from the day Gordon mentioned it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proudtobeabuddy Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 I remember it very well hence the reason why I couldn’t give a shit about losing the extra money. We’re the ones putting up with it. I think the BOD of directors should be careful with this because it could put off some of the newish ST holders from renewing in future. In this day and age we shouldn’t have to put up with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Sanchez Posted August 16, 2018 Report Share Posted August 16, 2018 There were umpteen pay at the gate games at Love Street in the '80s where they weren't actually allocated any of the home end, but there was no attempt whatsoever to stop them coming in. It was routine for them to be all over the home end without segregation, especially behind the goal, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
