  1. TBH, I wouldn't be in favour of that. There comes a point when we need to move on, and for me, we are beyond that now.

     

    I thought the same thing TBH. Maxwell said he'd be pretty angry if either club or the SFA didn't make it happen and pay some sort or repsect to Phil.

  2. Looking at those pics it makes me thankful that the press haven't cottoned on and turned this into the Phil O'Donnell Final like they did with the Davie Cooper Final!

     

    Ally Maxwell was in the paper last week asking that everything is done to make this happen, with a minute silence before the game too.

  3. Is anyone aware of a discount at any travel agents available through a deal with the club?

     

     

    I was certain there was a voucher in the season tickets for Thomas Cook, but had a look the other day and couldn't see it.

  4. I live in Manchester, popping into the club shop isn't actually an option. After the cup final the only place I'll be popping into is the pub, the next day I'll be on a train home.

     

    <_>

     

    How about someone from the club shop comes down and chaps your door then?

  5. The initial plan was for the team to wear this one off retro top in the game/date nearest to our anniversary. In order to do this you need approval from the powers that be (SFA, SPL, Commsworld). There may be other boring technical reasons why this plan never came to pass.

     

     

    The club could have put a bit more effort and planning into it then, so everything was sorted long before now.

     

    Christ, even Albion Rovers managed to have an anniversary top sorted with all the authorities a couple of seasons back when they wore the ble and yellow strips.

  6. Noticed on the seating plan yesterday that after the tickets were split between both teams there were still 11,000 left over for corporate and SFA use.

     

    Thought I'd have a wee spy at the FA Cup allocations.

     

    In a 90,000 seater stadium both Bolton and Stoke have been given an equal allocation of just 25,000 each with 40,000! going to corporate, The FA and neutral fans. It seems that's the standard allocations even allowing for Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal etc. making the final. That is shocking.

  7. Don't remember paying anything extra for using a debit card .

     

    How can anyone buy tickets if it's over the phone ?

     

    The 5% charge was definitely included for semi final tickets. Pretty sure it's always been there. Not 100% sure right enough, as I generally pay cash to avoid paying the 5% charge for paying by card.

     

     

    The club has the database of ST holders but if they outsource that to a call centre then that's where the problems start. Sure they could send out a list but transferring the entire database is a fair task.

  8. I we are going to be charged then why not put the money to use and outsource cupfinal tickets sales to some ~UK~ call centre to deal with the sales.

     

    Because then anyone could phone up for a ticket.

     

     

    Besides is there not always a 5% charge for buying tickets? Was certainly the case for the semi final.

  9. Still no official word on allocation and clarification as to whether there is scope for further tickets should we need them?

     

     

    Not exactly official but the word in the shop down the street today was that the final allocation was the agreed 16,059.

     

    EDIT: The club has been arguing its case for the last 10 days trying to be allocated extra tickets

     

    They also think they might not need to have a ballot if things carry on as they are going.

     

    Plenty of pre-orders for new season tickets have been taken which has boosted the number of tickets sold.

  10. I really like Jenning and would love him to stay but if he isn't going to sign a new contract, I think it would be best to leave him on the bench and play others who will be here next season so that McCall can decide what type of new players we need.

     

     

     

    We need to keep him match fit for the final though.

  11. The Sutton to Rangers story has been doing the rounds since the start of the year. He'd be going their as back-up to Jelavic I reckon. Don't see those 2 being a partnership.

     

     

    I suppose the Hateley one makes sense given his links to McCoist via his da' and agent. He's hit a bit of form again recently and I can't see Diouf or Davis being there next season so they'll need to bolster midfield.

  12. whats wrong with people who make a big financial commitment to the club, ie season ticket holders getting first the first chance to buy tickets, not just for the final but for any game ?

     

    I don't think that's what he means.

     

    I think he's talking about the pre-sale for people who buy a season ticket for next season. i.e Trying to give those who don't have 1 this season a wee nudge towards pre-ordering next season's season ticket just to unsure they get a cup final ticket

  13. I'm guessing there's a chance that our last game of the season against Celtic will be televised? There doesn't appear to be any games marked as live television games for that day yet.

     

    It probably will be. They'll just be waiting to see how the league is standing at that point.

     

    They will either show the game of who has already won the league, or they will be broadcasting both games simultaneously
