Why do you think clubs have cut our away allocation?
We obviously know why sevco done it but why did the other clubs do it?
The clubs who cut our allocation cannot fill their stadium, unless they let us fill it for them. These clubs could also be doing with the extra revenue we bring. Therefore, it makes no sense, financially to cut our allocation. This means they have done it for another reason. Do they think we have less chance of pumping them if they restrict the number of fans?

I’ve mentioned before I reckon it’s because the Premiership clubs have and will receive extra money due to Celtic playing in the CL groups for 3 consecutive seasons.
The Scottish Champions won’t always Qualify for the groups because our automatic place has been taken away.
It’s actually quite a lot of money they each receive.
Once that extra cash is taken away,
They will be wanting Celtic to take back our old allocations.

Hearts for example. I would tell them to ram their 600 tickets until they get real. Same goes for Hibs etc.

Still doesn’t make sense. they could have the windfall from Celtics CL participation AND our fans filling their stadiums.
They could then invest that cash into their teams and raise the standard and attract more local fans.
It’s nuts.
With this lack of basic business acumen no wonder so many clubs go to the wall.

I can’t understand it, it won’t affect the players, just less Celtic fans get to enjoy it live which might be reason enough for some of these idiots but they all need the money, it’s just stupid. 650 is ridiculous.

It doesn’t make sense but the clubs have only started cutting our allocation since they received that extra cash.

You could understand if there were not so many empty seats.
