CELTIC will be given tickets for the ENTIRE Broomloan Stand at Ibrox for the Scottish Cup quarter-final encounter on Sunday March 8.
The Glasgow clubs have agreed on the allocation limit and it means the Hoops fans will be given around 7,500 tickets, according to a Daily Record report.
The Parkhead hierarchy made a strong push for a maximum allowance with SFA rules offering the opportunity to claim up to 20 per cent of a stadium for visiting supporters.
It will be the first time Parkhead followers will be allowed to take over the full part of the stadium since March 2018.
GREEN GOVAN…Celtic fans at Ibrox in August last year for the Premiership goalless draw.
The away allocations were slashed to around 750 until there were increased crowds this term with 2,500 Ibrox fans at Parkhead at New Year and more than 2,000 Celts due in Govan in the Premiership encounter a week before the Cup-tie.
In the meantime, manager Martin O’Neill is preparing his squad for tonight’s crucial Europa League first leg play-off against VfB Stuttgart at Parkhead.
The second leg is due in Germany a week later – just three days before the visit to Ibrox with crucial Premiership points up for grabs.
