I miss many games and since I have been working offshore I’ve tried to be good too fellow fans regardless if I’ve met or not and helped them with tickets etc but Im thinking next season to half my book with someone (I’m not a cheapeskate but I pay too much money and miss too many games and it’s hard to justify it) been this way for years and years …
I would have season ticket for 3 weeks I’m home and other person would have it 3 weeks I’m away) if I’m home for both Hun games I would miss one obv but if I’m away then other person would get the 2….European games would be split say there’s 4 champ league games and I’m home for all 4 I would miss 2 of them and if I’m away for them all person would get all 4
At the very least theperson would get half the games (the chances is they would get more than half the games)
It could be 2 season tickets next to each other tbh but it’s 1 the now as it stands
Any one interested let me know
(Obv you only know each other through this website so obv trust would be important)
If you hate my views sometimes that’s fine too 🤣 I can find folk at home to do it but al check in here first

Your a gem Tommy.
You remind me of what I think being a celtic supporter is all about.

My old bhoy was pals with a greenock born defender on Celtics books years ago. Before he played fitba my dad took him under his wing in a factory and he never forgot.
So when he went to Celtic he used to get tickets for every game he wanted.
In those days my dad couldn't join the CSC he travelled with because they had an arcane rule, for membership you had to apply before you were 18. Something like that.
So the club that he travelled with, drank in with my maw, he was excluded from ever bring a member.
So in those days you had ballots as the club's got all he tickets. You actually put your name up for the ballot amd had to attend the ballot. He was never allowed into a ballot.
In the 3 years this guy was at celtic, he never missed a match because he was guaranteed a ticket. He used to get this player to gobble up any other players unused tix.
So there was times he could have 20-30.
He took one for himself and his brother.
Never gave me 1 single ticket.
There was no huns games, away trips, cup finals for me. I was lucky to get to any games. I loved it but he made sure i never was treated to things he didn't get.
But instead of looking after his mates with the rest, or people on his bus, he gave the rest to the club for the ballot. People would try it on but he would stop them in their tracks. The ballots the fair way. I think at times he even felt guilty taking one for himself.
I mind in those days he would have say 20 for a cup final against the huns. Id be dad you can make a fortune. Nope, never have and never will take a penny more than face value.
These people are your brothers and sisters in all but name.... that's the celtic way.

I read your first message and thought if there's someone out there, id like to help.
In our day someone had to take you. My dad didn't go till later. If my uncle didn't make the effort... things may have been different. Don't get me wrong. Was left outside the grange every week for an hour.
Didnt matter.

So i was gonni reach out, but its went to the best person I could think of.

If you've read lubos running commentary on a match day, his old bhoys going to love going to the games and not being a nervous wreck listening to him for a change.
Lubo's faither .... can we call him Dr Jo ?
