Recent rumours circulating on social media suggesting that Celtic might receive an increased ticket allocation of 2,650 for the upcoming Glasgow Derby clash at Ibrox have been debunked.
CeltsAreHere understands there have been no discussions regarding such an allocation, and the chances of this occurring for the current season are very slim.
The absence of fans from derby matches this season has been a point of contention, with Celtic citing safety concerns as the primary reason. The club made the decision not to take up their ticket allocation for the away section during the derby in September and similarly did not offer any tickets to Rangers fans for the New Year fixture at Celtic Park.
While Celtic has expressed a desire to return to receiving the full ticket allocation for their fans at away derbies, Rangers have shown reluctance to accommodate this request. The issue of ticket allocations has been a sensitive topic between the two clubs, impacting the atmosphere of one of Scottish football’s most iconic fixtures.
As it stands, both sets of fans will likely have to wait longer for a resolution that sees away supporters return in significant numbers for the fiercely contested derbies.
