City fans in the Celtic end next week

I've had a yernited' fan text me that we've sent back tickets for this fixture, can anyone confirm this is bollocks?

Having been to parkhead many times over the years with hibs I certainly would not risk going in their end. They don't tolerate hibs in their sections and to be fair nor do we at Easter rd, both clubs come from the same Irish heritage but that counts for nothing. If you do go I their end then keep your wits about you before, during and after the game. Hide you accents lads, that's the tell tale sign for them. If it's not Scottish or Irish then they will suspect you.

Stay safe.

There are Celtic seasonticket holders from England.
 
Heading to Glasgow in hope of getting a ticket outside.if need will go walkabout for cheap beers n watch the game.have no problem sitting in home end.
 
Me and my pal got two tickets for the Neil Lennon suite when England played Scotland at Celtic park the other year,we had a few beers in the bar and then got to our seats,Owen Coyle and John Mcginlay where sat in front of us,great atmosphere and we are buzzing looking forward to a good match,England played them off the park and we put 3 past them,every goal we celebrated every goal the jocks got more pissed off with us to the point where after the 3rd went in and we jumped up one fella tried giving me a Glasgow kiss but I managed to grab his head and push him away,someone took a swipe at me from behind,my mate who's a fucking nutter didn't help matters by saying to a group who had kilts on 'you can't fight with them skirts on 'you cut!' I still to this day wonder how we got out of that ground alive

Yes I know, just saying on a night where alcohol will be fuelling most of the crowd and when city are 3 or 4 up they will be pissed off and liable to start accusing and throwing punches at anyone they think might be city. Avoid the Lisbon Lion stand lower tier. That's where most of their daftys sit, it is however the same stand where city fans will be housed in the Southeast corner of that stand

I find this extremely unlikely. More likely to have asked for more rather than send some back.

We got 2700, we could have had 3200 but the club declined the extra 500 because, I am led to believe
they did not feel they could distribute this amount from the Hotel/Portakabin /Tesco's or wherever, which we are still waiting news of.
Absolute joke.
 
I'd advise against this for a whole host of reasons, but then again I plan on doing the exact same when I head down to Manchester so I have a cheek..

Police/stewards will refuse entry to anyone they suspect arent Celtic fans in the home end, the closer this game gets the more likely I think there will be trouble.

Our Orange 3rd kit will go down well with them. On another note I know Rangers fans who won't eat peas because they are green and Celtic fans who won't eat carrots as they are they are orange, feckin nuts

This is just yet another myth that, as usual, spread like wildfire on social media until it became the truth.

And how are they going to do that?

Ask punters to name all of the Lisbon Lions? Frisk everyone who doesn't smell of Buckfast?

I have worked in Glasgow for the last 20 years and have lived in Edinburgh for 30 years, I can't see any issues as long as people are sensible. There are loads of City fans who live in Scotland and Celtic fans who live in the North West. It is going to happen regardless of stewarding and police

Regarding the return leg, most European matches at the Etihad have visiting fans in the home end. Juventus last season had supporters all over the stadium despite the visitor's section being less than half full. Apparently, they could only get a ticket from Juve if they bought an expensive hotel/flight package, so most got tickets from City.
 
I hope the police and stewards do try to stop our fans getting into the Celtic end.

I was in the south stand at our ground last year in the City seats when it got very nasty as it became apparent there were BM fans in our midst.

The trouble is that all it takes then is a couple of other idiots getting involved (of which there are plenty at all grounds) and innocent people end up getting hurt.
