Rangers’ manager Stuart McCall
has backed Rangers’ (and Motherwell and Hibernian) stance on briefs for the

Rangers’ boss has supported
existing season ticket holders being admitted for free, and describes the
tickets for the playoffs as surely ‘falling under the league umbrella’ of
rightful entry for ST holders.

He reasoned the following:
“All we want and all the supporters want and
the players want is a full house and I think when you pay for a season ticket
you know you’re going to have to pay for cup games.”

But regarding playoffs he
considers them a completely different rule:

And of course he is absolutely
correct, as are Hibs (who succeeded in not charging ST holders for last season’s

Queen of the South, curiously,

Greed is good where spfl is concerned, that's no surprise.
I would like to think Bears would turnout for the final push irrespective of ticketing issues.

Rock the ' Brox and we'll not go far wrong.
