Keith Jackson believes that Rangers could be making changes to their ticketing allocations for next season.
The Daily Record journalist is of the view that the hierarchy are considering these moves in the aftermath of the Scottish Cup quarter-final clash against Celtic.
Celtic fans stormed onto the Ibrox pitch, as did the Gers supporters, leading to chaos, damage to property, and a few arrests.
Keith Jackson hints at potential stadium bans for Rangers supporters
Rangers announced on Wednesday that they had decided to delay the allocation of season tickets for the 2026/27 season by a week.
They also stated that it was due to recent events, but did not delve deep into what the exact reasons were.
This saw Keith Jackson potentially hinting at shutting down the section of the ultras in the stadium, so as to avoid violence that was witnessed post the defeat against Celtic.
He said: “I can only imagine that it involves the scenes that we saw at the end of the Scottish Cup quarter-final tie with Celtic, potentially the group of supporters that ran on wearing their Spiderman masks.
“I don’t know if they’re going to shut down the Spidey section of the stadium.
“You can only take from it that because of something recent, they are not going ahead with season tickets, and that suggests to me that there are things to be agreed on before.
“If there is a decision to be made about stadium bans or season ticket bans or whatever, then we’ll find out about that over the course of the next few days.
“I would imagine that is the issue that Rangers are confronting, and then you wouldn’t need to wait for prosecutions and criminal convictions.”
This is what Rangers are expected to do in the coming days
There is a possibility that Rangers are seriously considering shutting down sections occupied by groups like the Union Bears.
They want to make Ibrox a safe place to go, and that may be viewed as the best way towards making that happen.
There could also be a withdrawal of season ticket privileges, and that could happen without any criminal prosecutions either.
This delay allows the club to cross-reference CCTV and police evidence, and with the information gathered, decide to blacklist specific accounts.
It remains to be seen what the decision is and whether or not it is an unpopular one among the Ibrox faithful.
