    What annoys me is that the Huns tickets are actually better priced. They have decent prices for adults and concessions whereas we have low concession prices but more expensive * tickets. The board are fly and try and lure you to the game with your kids because the kids prices are good, knowing that you will still need to fork out a ridiculous price for St. Johnstone etc.

    either way you look at here you would think we are the only team with empty seats ffs. look alswhere not everyone sells out also you know and under the circumstances with people not working,no money,cant go cos of work or other things they have to do?and of course the * weather we are having also. and i suppose you can throw in the uder par performances also i suppose.not about glory hunting its the way it is all over at the moment.

    The attendances the last couple of games have been shocking. Lucky if there was 20,000 against killie and 25,000 against St Johnstone
    To many fans that are not faithfull through and through ( i am talking about the fans that can go but don't go. Not the fans who can't afford to go)

    The recent attendances have ousted the part timers, the glory hunters and the hangers on. That can only be a good thing, IMO. Obviously I'd prefer to see 60,000 but these "fans" are no great loss at all.

    Obviously not all 20,000 empty seats are a result of these part timing glory hunters etc.

    Its amazing how empty celtic park is every game then its the old firm & everyone is desperate for a ticket & all my mates wanting me to get extra tickets with ma season ticket but I will never see them go to any other game I feel like saying where u been the rest of the season. Im not saying they should go to every game & I understand with the current problems with employment it can be hard but alot of people simply dont bother with the small games then demand tickets for bigger games.

    I would assume this means a person who only attends a few games a season or when we are winning trophies.

    I would come under the first part as I play football on a saturday when most home games are played. I would argue this doesn`t make me a part-time fan; as Celtic has been and continues to be a huge part of my life.

    Thanks to the recent weather I have been able to attend the last 3 home games which although 2 were ended in disappoinment, has not changed the feeling I have for the club. If not made it stronger with all those outside willing to knock the club. No better feeling than being at Celtic Park for me.

    Strange thing is some of the part timers have paid £500 for a season ticket.

    i know were your coming from....

    what am getting at was there would have been many fans who live in England and Ireland not being able to attend,me and my lad being 2 of them, i wll be on the road to paradise tomorrow,unless something drastic happens

    an empty stadium,in the middle of the worst winter in 50 years and bang the part time fans are to blame

    not all season tickets holders are based within the glasgow area,i know 38 of them who live within the Newcastle area

    i just wonder how many of us are out there :50:

    Hats off to those(like yourself) that travel many miles to attended games at this particular time. The thing is I wonder how many of those that failed to attend were a little closer to home and just couldn`t be arsed.

    there's lads in my supporters club that does the 200 miles journey every game, im no far off every game missed a few, due to a ban.

    these people should be rewarded somehow, considering the people who can go but choose not to doesnt turn up.

    Does my * head right in when snotty nosed 16 year olds who get their tickets bought by their parents come on and start categorising fans. I'd put the wee * over my knee and smack them red raw!
