      I don't think it is only about getting more Rangers fans in...also be good to have less of them and our fans behind both goals. My opinion anyway.

        I agree with that in principle , I honestly thought that we'd have no prob selling out this season so applauded the original decision as your right gies them an advantage but with all the expense rangers now have feel they got to maximise , like I said if we'd filled it in our first 3 games think we can argue it , feel
        Fans lost their right when they chose to not come to the games

          I'll take bets.
          We have to give 10% - 1,800 or upper School.

          We've given them the lower to capitalise on the extra £30-50k by being able to sell the front half of the stand.

          Will be the same for all Cat A games.

            I think the belief that a big away following influences the result is a myth. I have been many an away game when we have packed the away end sung our hearts out and the team has not turned up, its a common complaint from Rangers fans.

            Yes it would be better to have Rangers but by the time they cordon off the front rows how many of our own are actually in the lower tier.

            And why at Rangers do they cordon off the front rows they don’t do it at Wolves, Arsenal, West Ham and Sheffield Utd where opposition fans sit above and below each other

              Front rows are overhung by upper tier so drink/spit/****/missiles could rain down on those rows.

                    Granted but the teams mentioned above dont cordon off seats they just manage the situation. Cant think of any other club that adopts our policy.

                    If we have to cordon off seats and given the argeument we are giving clubs an allocation beyond which is actually required why dont we cordon off the front rows of the upper tier so their are more rangers in the lower

                        The upper tier when full doesn't even equal the 10% minimum, but we get away with that on the basis of segregation.

                          I remember few years back they gave us 6700 and 7000 seats respectively for the FA Cup matches. Stamford Bridge has capacity of 41 841, so they should give us 4200 at least.

                            They're obliged to give us the lower of 10% of capacity or 3,000.

                              I don`t know what`s the agreement but giving them the whole School End Stand doesn`t sound good.
