Scottish Supporters Collective

Football is meant to be for everybody but all over the country working-class fans are being priced out. What I’d like to see from colleagues across Parliament is a commitment to see the best in football supporters, to value their contribution, and support them to grow our game.

A price cap in Scottish football is long overdue. Fans are the lifeblood of our clubs and deserve a fairer deal. Well done to @GillianMacMSP echoing our calls in Parliament! 👏👏👏

Scottish Cup Round 4: In the stands… 🏟️ Impressive supports across the country. Motherwell fans highlighted the increasing demand for a cap on the price of away tickets.

Last month saw various collections around Christmas time organised by Ultras groups for; food, clothes & toys as you can see in our pictures at Motherwell, Celtic, Hibs, St Johnstone and St Mirren matches.

Supporting our communities 🧸 Every year we see fans from across the leagues contribute to helping those in need. While these are a regular occurrence, the continued success of these initiatives shows that football fan groups are an important pillar in our communities.

Time for a fairer deal for fans

Extreme violence by Police Scotland exposed.

Against collective punishment.

£39 🚫 That’s the price Hibs fans were charged for their match at Celtic Park on Saturday. Both Block 7 (Hibs) and Bhoys (Celtic) displayed banners highlighting this unacceptable pricing. Unless fans unite to demand change, we risk being priced out of the game.

💙 We were delighted to host the first meeting of @ScotSupporters in the Brockville Bar on Friday. 🤝 Up to 20 Ultras groups from across Scotland are cooperating to improve the atmosphere at games, lobby for fairer ticket pricing, ending stigma of working class fans, better facilities for disabled supporters, and clubs taking their fans seriously. 🗣️ All these issues are in the DNA of Falkirk FC, so we were delighted to see several club leaders, liaison officers and safety officers talk frankly about misconceptions, challenges and, most importantly, solutions. 💪 Fans must always come first so we will continue to support this effort and call on all clubs and Scottish football’s authorities to do the same.

These stats continue to highlight that fans are the lifeblood of Scottish football. Those fans deserve better. We believe that with fairer ticket pricing, increased fan engagement and building Scottish football around improving fan experience, these numbers would be even higher.
