We effectively do; they have to pay for all the damage, which they wouldn't have to if they stopped it happening. They just don't appear to be willing or able to stop it happening.

They just don't appear to be willing or able to stop it happening. You can understand why though. If they banned the culprits, it would save them a few grand in repair costs. However they'd lose much much more in ticket/commercial sales as diehards took the huff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted February 26, 2024 Report Share Posted February 26, 2024 The Green Brigade are untouchable, not just with the authorities but with Celtic themselves. They’ve got alot of powerful people backing them and they are a very dangerous lot. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Grew Posted February 26, 2024 Report Share Posted February 26, 2024 Having read the responses concerning the damages to seating in the away stand yesterday I have concluded that the club should advise Celtic FC that in future they will not receive any tickets when they play at Fir Park. I recognise that this will cost the club revenue but I think that’s better than the “just suck it up they’re paying for the damages” argument. I’m sick and tired of seeing the rest of Scottish football kowtow to this lot and their fellow bigots from Ibrox. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted February 26, 2024 Report Share Posted February 26, 2024 As I said last night all that would happen then is their fans would buy up home end tickets in droves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santheman Posted February 26, 2024 Report Share Posted February 26, 2024 14 hours ago, El Grew said: As far as the damages in the away stand are concerned it’s not the first time they’ve done this and the club should report it to the SPFL and the SFA and ensure Celtic FC are charged for all repair and replacement costs. Then in future the club should: 1) Refuse to admit Celtic fans to Fir Park; or 2) Reduce their allocation to a rump; or/and 3) Add a premium to the price of their tickets. You could argue that we already add a premium as its a category A match which means the prices are higher than a normal category B. https://www.motherwellfc.co.uk/tickets/fir-park-entry-prices/ Unfortunately it also applies to home tickets as well so it seems we cannot charge away fans more rhan home fans. Whether that's an SPFL rule or a gentleman's agreement between clubs I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's SPFL rules, away fans need to be charged the same as Home fans for similar areas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We obviously can't, and you won't see potential investors for dust if no Old Firm fans was part of the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ve got alot of powerful people backing them and they are a very dangerous lot. It should be noted that the ban Celtic imposed on the GB was only lifted after their embarrassing but financially rewarding European appearances ended for the season. The only reason they were banned in the first place was to placate Uefa who were very close to closing areas of Celtic Park, with the next stage being a complete European ban. Either of those sanctions would have cost them millions. Our authorities on the other hand will always turn a blind eye. All the shite Celtic spread around regards incidents at Fir Park, Easter Road etc forcing them to act for the good of football was just a smokescreen. Remember Rodgers saw fit to defend the youngster at Livi (?) who the stewards collared when he ran onto the park, the week before a swarm of them did much worse at Fir Park, even getting in the faces of our players. Toxic. We really should just ban them from Fir Park. Financial hit or not. I know that's not going to happen given our finances but it would at least highlight the issue and maybe force the media to have a serious debate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a fixture goes by against them now where they don't cause some sort of costly damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And less than two years after that we had the ‘Well Bois’ doing a joint protest with them at Fir Park over heavy handed policing. Talk about ‘useful idiots’. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
