Celtic fans have expressed their frustration and disagreement with former defender Mark Wilson’s recent claims regarding the ongoing ticketing drama involving the club. This controversy has arisen as Celtic faces a reduced ticket allocation for their away match against Hearts at Tynecastle.
Hearts’ decision to slash Celtic‘s allocation has caused outrage among Celtic supporters, who feel unfairly treated in comparison to their city rivals, Hibernian.
Wilson, speaking on Clyde Superscoreboard on October 19, referred to Celtic as “hypocrites” and suggested that both Celtic and Rangers were to blame for the ongoing ticket allocation issues in Scottish football.
However, many Celtic fans vehemently disagreed with Wilson’s assessment. They argued that it wasn’t Celtic’s decision to cut ticket allocations and pointed fingers at Rangers as the initiators of the problem. In recent seasons, both Celtic and Rangers have reduced each other’s ticket allocations for derby matches, eventually eliminating visiting fans altogether due to safety concerns.
One supporter insisted that the allocation issues were started by Rangers during a period of their dominance, and Celtic should not be held solely responsible.
Others agreed that the blame rested with Rangers and suggested that Celtic should not return allocations until a satisfactory agreement is reached.
Furthermore, one fan even proposed the radical idea of completely cutting away allocations for visiting fans to demonstrate to other teams what they would be missing out on.
This ticket allocation dispute highlights the ongoing tensions between Celtic and Rangers and the challenges faced by both clubs in managing fan safety and expectations during high-stakes matches. Celtic fans are keen to emphasize that they are not solely responsible for the allocation debacle and are eager to see a resolution that satisfies all parties involved.
As the situation unfolds, fans will continue to voice their opinions and concerns regarding this ongoing issue in Scottish football.
