Rumours surface that Celtic fans won’t get any tickets for April 3 Ibrox derby fixture

There are rumours on Twitter today that there will be no allocation of tickets to Celtic fans for the Glasgow derby on April 3 at Ibrox. 

Since Dave King decided to slash the allocation from 7,000 to 800 in the summer of 2018 the issue of away fans has been a source of concern around the fixture. 

Back in August Celtic were in possession of 800 tickets for the first derby of this season but those tickets were cancelled and dished out to Ibrox fans, 

Celtic returned that favour in February when a full house of Celtic fans spooked James Tavernier and his team-mates into a 3-0 defeat with many fans claiming that it was the best atmosphere in a decade.

Ibrox Managing Director Stewart Robertson recently told Sky Sports that the 2018 allocations would return for the two remaining derbies but Celtic responded with a tweet reminding Robbo that home clubs decide on allocations. 

Now it seems that furious Ibrox want to have 100% bears in attendance at next month’s match- a decision that Celtic will almost certainly replicate for the post split fixture at home. 

Both clubs have also been working together to export their beloved yet toxic derby to Australia in November.
