No Celtic will still win the league and probably by quite a significant margin. Aberdeen though could possibly sneak into second place if the stars align correctly between now and May.

And although my eyes were open
They just might as well be closed

Rangers fans complaining about 3 stands being half empty , when they could be full of their fans, maybe less away fans increases the home teams chances of getting a result.

It absolutely does increase their chances.
I remember even feeling intimidated at EEP when we allowed their fans to infiltrate most of our ground including the home end and NW stand.
Sometimes if you have ambition, stop thinking of the pounds missing in the coffers and think about getting it up the OF

That was ridiculous we gave them that much.

I’m sure I seen something somewhere that since St Mirren decided to restrict their numbers (they are still getting a full stand btw) that the overall numbers at each match against the OF were up and that their results were slightly improved

Yep it was a horrible, horrible feeling seeing the old firm in the NW stand in the Yorkston/Masterton era. Good job we put that extra revenue to good use huh!!

You`re correct about St Mirren. Results and attendances improved.

Said it a while ago, if/when we get back to the Premier League, I`d give them 500 seats in the Cowden end - 250 in sections A and E - and the police and stewards in between. If they kicked off, I`d reduce it the next time.

Still remember last League game of 2004, just before the cup final, Rangers fans invade the pitch (after a sh*t season), security do nothing other than line the home fans to make sure none of us do the same.

F*** that happening ever again.

Little chance of hosting them in the league for the foreseeable future - but what if either were drawn in the cup at EEP ?

Would you expect the club to restrict visiting fans as suggested - considering DAFC have barely got two pennies to rub together ?

I doubt the beancounters on the board would consider that for a nano second.

`If/when we get back to the Premier League` was your main clue.

If we do draw them in the cup, I would probably expect the club to give them the cowden end and the north east stand.

Main, Norrie and North west for home fans

Yep, they`d get that and the south east.

See that’s where I’d draw the line, I wouldn’t give them the South east. I’d open it for home fans - or at least hold it in reserve for home fans.

Imagine playing for the in the home team and seeing the away fans in 3 stands. Puts you on the back foot instantly. The likelihood is we’d get beat but I don’t see the point in turning a home fixture into an away fixture just for a potential extra few thousand. 4,500/5000 seats in the east and north east is more than enough in an 11,000 capacity stadium for an away team.

Not really, you brought in the possibility of us drawing them in the cup in our current predicament - which was nothing to do with the policy I was talking about.

You then seemed to answer the question yourself by saying the current board wouldn't entertain it.

Remember that day well, and was absolutely raging at the way the club treated us rather than them, they got as far as the tunnel as well.

Personally, that’s what I would do, good suggestion……have faith, we’ll be back there one day!

Me neither but that`s what I think would happen.
